DANNYMAY DAY 09: Space

Day 08 ⟡ Day 10

Right up Danny’s alley. Space. Dreaming of being an astronaut, flying and hovering and floating in zero gravity, between the unreachable stars and planets. Imagining about walking through constellations and the Milky Way’s ocean. Oh, yes. I had so much fun drawing and rendering this one!

The Constellations of northern Arda - an autumn sky above Thangorodrim

The constellations of Arda - a night sky made up of the constellations of Tolkien's Legendarium (and some added real ones (lyra, swan, dragon) that seemed to fit thematically) overlaid over an autumnal sky of our northern hemisphere. (somewhat expanded to get all of them in one view (e.g. do not @ me about orion or corona borealis ;) )

Also, for the Tolkien astronomy nerds(TM), Anarríma (which we don't have any information on besides the name) is probably meant to be an adaptation of pegasus. So the actual depiction is completely made up by me.

I ultimately landed on the idea of a giant spider (as the name translates to something like the edge/border of light/the sun) The spider not only fits well with the long limbs of the pegasus but Ungoliant's (and her descendants') stories do always play out in that edge of light and the sun, always desiring, craving and devouring it but also shying away from it. /rant over
