Echtelion of the Fountain

To create this character, I drew inspiration from the description of this Noldor elf lord in Tolkien's novels “The Silmarillion” and “The Fall of Gondolin.” The armor worn by the Noldori, Galadrim, and Thranduil in Peter Jackson's films served as excellent references, as did Greek helmets and male models' faces.

Thanks to Sebastien Giroux for his Character design feedback.

Ecthelion was also captain of the House of the Fountain, one of the twelve houses of Gondolin. These people had long, beautiful swords and wore many jewels and diamonds.
