This past weekend the Tolkien Days took place in Germany and our cosplay group The Eldar Cosplay had our biggest area yet. I took a lot of photos of our Gondolin camp and these are some of the cosplay pieces I brought and some of the props I made for showcasing in our camp:

Two elven lanterns, inspired by Laurelin and Telperion

a battle map of North Beleriand (size about 90 x 170 cm)

the costume of my OC Nando Kelundir

Maeglin's shield

We'll post more photos, mainly of course of our cosplays, on our group Insta account https://www.instagram.com/the_eldar_cosplay/.

"Aikanár the Sharp-flame loved thee. For thy sake now he will never take the hand of any bride of his own kindred, but live alone to the end, remembering the morning in the hills of Dorthonion." (J.R.R. Tolkien, Histories of Middle-earth: Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth) @slutterfly_cosplay posting three of our Andreth x Aikanáro photos from the Tolkien days in Geldern last year inspired me to edit another of our photos too. We got so many precious pics from that shooting, thanks to @goldiepond. Andreth: @slutterfly_cosplay. Aikanáro: me (Foedhrass). photo: @goldiepond. edit: me.

Twist your torso! On the side! Don’t you want to be the first wretch to fall at the dawn of the battle? You must offer the thinnest section to the enemy rapier or you will not return to your loved ones and you will be swallowed by the cold land of the North!

Tread the battlefield at a fast pace and let yourself be overwhelmed by the magnitude of the battle. Only by properly brandishing your blade within those acrimonious waves, you will be able to find what all the men of the North crave: the assumption to Valhalla!

Let the horns blow on this day of jubilation! The Arctic Lands as the whole world will toast the Lord of the North, as his hegemony will begin now. The time of the red two-headed snake has come, the banners and fortresses will fall under his fierce thrust

You of the North are stubbornly seeking glory! I have no such ambitions. A pint of beer and a woman’s warm embrace is enough to make me feel satisfied. As long as death overtakes me, I will abandon the coffers of gold and there will be no great halls or songs of glory, but only worms.

I will be there when the earth will tremble, when the sky will crumble and the people will deny their blood. I will be there at the moment of the supreme capitulation, and you will not be happy to see my shadow envelop you and the sword of my fathers pierce your chest!
