Heget's Blatherings

Disclaimer: Here is a blend of Original Tolkien creations (aka my best efforts at recreating the author’s drawing), modifications on the original, and designs completely from cloth. Previous Entries can be found under the sigil tag. Please credit if use.

In order:

Mahtan, Nerdanel, Edrahil

Notes:

Yes, I'm reposting these once more. Because if people in the Silmarillion/Tolkien fandom continue to use them, I want nice official links to them. And so another crosspost from tumblr project is born.

Because of the epessë Urundil, “copper-lover”, I wanted the color scheme to be heavy on the copper red. Nerdanel’s design was supposed to be a little more floral, but ended up just geometric and very gear-like. Which works. Because Mahtan is a smith: the cog-design and something vaguely flame-ish for the forges. And some Kirby dots. A cousin branch has the design turn into shapes of flame and calligraphy.

That third sigil is for a branch of mostly-original characters I’m making related through a sibling of Nerdanel. They ended up loosely based on the Tullys, and since I am using Istarnië, Nerdanel’s original name, as that of her mother, I didn't have a ready name for a sister of Nerdanel. So she gets a brother who has two daughters and a son. I took inspiration from “The Leithian Script” and made Edrahil a nephew once removed of Nerdanel, making this design his sigil -well, technically that of his father Eredhon.
