Orcs and trolls spoke as they would, Without any love of words or things; And their language was actually more degraded and filthy than I have shown it. I do not suppose that any will wish for a closer rendering, though models are easy to find. The Lord of the Rings, Appendix F, The Languages and P...

Eriargarch made her way through the postal system a few weeks ago and I'm finally getting around to posting up some photos!




Rest of the Imgur album is HERE.

I’m suspicious…

If needs must, candles with a tin would probably work the best. I carry a couple in the event of needing to mend or repair gear. The firelight just isn't concentrated enough. Fair enough. My eyes are bad enough that a candle still isn’t going to do much so I usually call it quits with the hiking ea...

No 'laich i-ador en-onnad lîn!

Happy Happy Birthday!

Right. To be clear, this was the configuration I was referring to. I don't think I would ever attach anything to the quiver itself. But I like the way you have it set up here Elleth. Having the straps criss-crossing here and almost supporting each other seems right to me. I have my crannog bag on my...

I can claim no expertise in Sindarin. I know only what the users on the Sindarin Discord offered. I’d imagine the p becomes a b through some sort of mutation or another. Honestly, there’s enough mis-spellings in real-world engravings, I can quite easily see some poor Bree smith not understanding the...

Asking around, someone recommended this translation.

I'd say *hanar Gwaebind* "(a) brother of Wind-ridge."

And I like Glǽmscribe for translation into Tengwar.

It does indeed! And it makes me happy I asked as I would never have thought of those problems until well after I was done making the bits. Collective knowledge eh? With the recent posts in Elleth's Quiver and Gear thread and the pictures within, I'm still a little tempted to try the across the back ...

Thank you Gulli! Coming from a craftsman of your caliber, that is high praise indeed!

Frankly, even in modern-day style camping I don't need much light after dark aside from the campfire. Then again, I like sleep so I prep my things before sundown and then head to bed early. I wouldn't even worry about having a smaller light source as in my opinion it's probably more trouble than it'...

Honestly, yeah. It sounds like you might need to just carry it off your belt and shift it to somewhere else in your set-up.

Yeah, I have to echo redhand here. I'm not understanding what's so dangerous about a (sheathed) hand-axe being carried on your belt? Of course, I don't consider mine a weapon as it's just a tool and so I have no need for a "quick-draw." Therefore it's usually passed through the straps of m...

Congratulations Cimrandir on obtaining a very fine piece of art. The good taste and talent exhibited on this forum is an inspiration to me. The pictures are great, it will be a joy to have in ones hand. Thank you! The only good taste I have is the one in craftsfolk, I'm afraid haha. Goodnight! That...

Well, dang!

I had been planning on making my own style of snapsack to try to avoid homogeneity with the rest of the group but with such wonderful instructions, I would be quite the fool not to follow them!

Thank you for taking the time to write all this up and put it together Elleth!
