silwritersguild is providing anyone willing with a prompt a day to inspire the Tolkien muses out of the woodwork. :D I have decided to use it as an opportunity to do a study of Mablung of Doriath, about whom "canon" has preciously little to say, so my imagination can run free for most of the time. And also, he met or could conceivably have met nearly every important character in Middle Earth until the fall of Doriath. So there are plenty of opportunities to widen the horizon. With so many prompts and so little time to complete them in, I can only offer you sketches, I'm afraid. But I think some of these are ideas are pretty cool, so I may convert them into proper drawings/paintings when time allows.

binkaslibrary asked for Thingol/Melian and Silmaril. I have seen several of those of you who have done this meme writing drabbles complain that it is hard to stay within 100 words. Well now even I fail at brevity! I had to do a little comic to get the idea in my head down on paper... I also wanted to try out my new watercolours, so I'm afraid you are all now subjected to my experimentation. It didn't go quite as well as I had hoped, but neither was it quite as bad as I had feared. I might redo this idea at some point when I master the media better, because I still think it is quite neat. :D I hope you like it, my dear Binka!
