eldamaranquendi:Beren and Luthien by ArlenianChronicles“I first started this project what feels like many months ago, after having listened to Clamavi de Profundis’ amazing cover for The Song of Beren and Luthien (which I highly recommend you listen to! They also have many other covers for Tolkien’s poems on their channel!). As you all likely know from my previous artwork and Tolkien Talks interview, Beren and Luthien are my favourite couple from the Silmarillion, and I wanted to do something in homage to them. My initial idea was to draw a comic strip similar to that of my Awakening project, and I ended up making twenty pages. However, I lost motivation to continue it before the colouring stage could begin, and left the pages unfinished for a few months.However, after recently telling you guys that I had burnt myself out and also gotten art block, I got inspired to try redrawing the comic for Beren and Luthien, but I decided not to do it in a comic strip format. Instead, I thought of nine pages for the nine stanzas of the song, and with the respective lyrics alongside them. The result of this idea is what you see here. I am very, very happy to show you all the finished product!“ -- source link
