Description A reject for feanorianweek that I sadly didn’t finish in time…

Everyone talks about all the skills the feanorians got from feanor, but I’ve never heard a single one of you mention maybe one of them being a sculptor.

Here’s my take on that idea: Nerdanel tried to teach every one of her kids, but she met varied levels of success; here are her most recent tries: Tyelcormo (who has decided he’d much better as a muse rather and the sculptor) and Carnistir (who is still confused which tool is supposed to do what)

I love it!! Celegorm was totally born for the posing (and I bet he enjoys showing off his muscles), and Caranthir looks very cute and confused!! And of course he wants to get the correct one to impress his Mommy

oh definitely, if cameras had been invented back then he'd have started his model career right there!
;D

Yeah, Caranthir is still smol but he's very dedicated and he wants to show he's up to the task!

I just noticed the tiny little GAF in the corner, is it a new thing you're going to use?

It's something I'm currently trying but ..I dunno... I'm not really sure...doesn't sit well with me...

Personally, I really like it! Gives it an extra greenapplefreak-ishness to your drawings!! I think you should totally continue to include it

well, it's something I was testing... mostly because now I'm also posting on tumblr and sometimes I end up finding stuff in Pinterest... but... *shrugs* it doesn't sit well with me so we will see..

One of my Silmarillion headcanons is that Amrod, out of all his brothers (minus Maglor, who liked to sing), would probably be more interested in sculpting that smithing. He's always struck me as someone who would see the beauty in making something out of wood, stone, clay, etc. and turn it into a beautiful sculpture.
 
I honestly love how Celegorm is just posing (and looking real fine too) while Caranthir is trying to figure out what exactly he is supposed to be dong with those tools. It's really just an adorable moment.

he! thanks! Celegorm has found his calling and has decided to become a "professional model" (and if the job doesn't exist he's gonna be the first one ever!) and Caranthir just wants to help!
:3

Oooohh! I like that headcanon!! you know Amrod and Amras lived close to the forest...he probably apreciated the beauty of a wooden statue...

Oh yes. Celegorm as Arda's first professional model--could honestly see that happening. Caranthir is just a helpful boy.

Thank you!
Oh yes! He probably would!

Awwwww... poor Nerdanel.  XD

But yes, hopefully young Telperinquar could have inherited the skills of both his grandpa and grandma.

ha ha, sweet family image

Nerdanel must have been so happy if Celebrimbor proved some talent for it, given that he in canon was one of the co-creators of the Doors of Durin

(and in the Warg Rider AU, she would nearly crush celebrimbor's ribs in a bone-breaking hug of joy over that he marries Narvi, who is a stone cutter. "Finally someone who finds a girl of my own taste!" )
