"But as the host of Fingolfin marched into Mithrim the Sun rose flaming in the West, and Fingolfin unfurled his blue and silver banners, and blew his horns, and flowers sprang beneath his marching feet, and the ages of the stars were ended."

J. R. R. Tolkien: The Silmarillion, Chapter 13: Of the Return of the Noldor

(From left to right: An unnamend banner-bearer; Fingolfin, ready to throttle the first Feanorean to cross his path; Fingon, checking back to see if the host has trouble following; Turgon, lost in grief over his wife Elenwe; Finrod and his sister Galadriel, looking at Middle-earth for the first time in wonder.)

Oh, and full view strongly recommended! :)

Watercolour/Photoshop.

I love this one. So much that it became my desktop wallpaper since 3 months ago! Yet after 20 years wandering on the ice, Fingolfin's eyes still burn ready to teach Fëanor some manners.

Fingolfin looks so pissed off, and he has every right to be. XD

I believe in Jesus Christ my Savior. If you do too and are not scared to admit it then copy and paste this in your signature.

I actually think I ought to redo this one at some point... I still love it so much though, despite its shortcomings.

I don't blame you, it is an awesome picture. Artists and authors are their harshest critics.

WOWW!! Such a powerful scene!!! I love the breadth and scope of it. I think my favorite part is the intense anger in Fingolfin's expression, though. Even his hair looks angry and wild!! I love the beautiful clouds, only watercolor can capture that flurrying motion...
