Elwing. Okay, one, I like drawing donkey ears on elves. Come at me. And two, Elwing is awesome! Before she turned into a bird for good and spent the rest of her days strategically pooping on people she didn’t like (like Feanorians. -_- ) I like to imagine her wearing feathered cloaks that were stylish foreshadowing. Or maybe she used to turn into a bird all of the time, sekritly, and the feathered cloak was a big hint that made her giggle.

Random elf: Oooh Elwing, your cloak is so pretty. It looks like feathers!
Elwing: Ye-aasss… it does, doesn’t it? Yee hee hee…
Random elf: Heh heh. Uh, so, we’re giggling now? 
Elwing: Hee hee hee!
Random elf: I’m going that way, now.

I also like to think Elrond got his sense of humour from Elwing. 

And.. bonus sketch! I’m still trying to work out how an older Thorin might have styled his beard when it grows out.


I like to imagine his beard is rather floofy and it might feel like wool. Thrór had so much beard and I can imagine Thorin might have taken after him.
