Re: Elladan and Elrohir: Rangers?

While not detailed, I thought I might share this early doodle of where my mind currently goes when thinking about clothing design for Elladan.

Re: Elven Ranger Clothing Concept

I think you made some really cool choices here! I especially love that the tunic crosses over from left to right. It reminds me of many tunics, but especially of the Mongolian Deel. I've actually thought the Deel looks pretty Elvish myself, but either way I really like your concept and drawings! Kee...

Re: Elladan and Elrohir: Rangers?

Well, as it happens Eofor, I am no spring chicken either LOL. But I hope that I can put forth something that is based on extensive citations and research. I am looking to build a specific depiction of Elladan in his hunting/ranger garb such as he might have worn at the time of Frodo's arrival in Riv...

Re: Elladan and Elrohir: Rangers?

I can see how this idea could be off-putting to the nature of the forum. It's not building an original, unique character in the world of Middle Earth. For myself, it is definitely an idea that is specifically tied to just Elladan and Elrohir, as they are quite singular in how their nature is portray...

Elladan and Elrohir: Rangers?

Given that the sons of Elrond were usually hunting in the wild alongside the Rangers of the North, would it be totally inappropriate to conjecture about and possibly build a kit based on Elladan or Elrohir?

Re: Leather Boots from Armstreet

I've shared some pics of these in the Facebook group, but had not shared any here. I apologize for the cross-posting if you've already seen these. I really do like them, all except for the lacing. So. Much. Lacing.

Re: Rangers of Ithilien posting

I guess I started this thread on a weird, ADHD tangent. I've spent the last 40 years obsessed with the Rangers of the North and all things Grey Company, and it wasn't until recently when I realized just how much detail Tolkien actually gives us about the Rangers of Ithilien. I kind of feel like ther...

Re: Rangers of Ithilien posting

Yeah, although in the strictest of sense, they ARE technically Dúnedain - they’re just southern Dúnedain rather than the northern Dúnedain we normally think of. Very true. At least the couple of Rangers that Frodo hears talking. Were all of that company Dunedain? And those that were, did they have ...

Yep, same. Now I just need to figure out how to add that bit at the bottom of my posts that stays the same. I like how yours says your persona.

Re: Decided on a Persona Name

Also, just an aside: I think it would be fantastic to be wandering the wilds as a grim, BEARDED ranger who's name essentially means baby-faced.

Decided on a Persona Name

I'm looking to put some more time and effort into my rangering here this year, and so I was playing with persona names the other night. For a Dunedain Ranger of the North, one of Aragorn's men who could be called upon to be in the Grey Company, I have decided upon Calenthir Dunadan. I just threw Dun...

Rangers of Ithilien posting

Hey all. Is there a specified thread or board space for Ithilien Rangers here on the forum? Would that go under the "other human culture" board? Where has other talk been?
