“Lake-town,orEsgaroth, known fully as “Esgaroth upon the Long Lake”, was a small settlement and community of Men in the north-western part of the Long Lake in the Rhovanion. The town was constructed entirely of wood and stands upon wooden pillars sunk into the bed of the Long Lake, south of the Lonely Mountain and east of Mirkwood. It seems that the town’s prosperity was built on trade between the Men, ElvesandDwarves of northern Middle-earth.

Aaalright, so MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! And also i wanted to post what I’m finally working on lol.

so, my idea for my costume this time, instead of making my ‘gaudy Durins day’ dwarf gown for my Moria costume series because i love my little Moria lol. But this time because of the tight time limit i have given myself with my severe procrastination, i have decided to make the costume from the laketown section of my fanfic ((don’t ask where to read it lol. I haven’t gotten to that point where I’m happy enough with it to post lol. And it’s mostly in my mind. One day though haha))

The ax is 42" and is quite big in hand. Sized it to help me look smaller in pictures, and im guessing that it’s around the size of a normal one-handed ax, human wise if im a dwarf. ((lol, correct me if I’m wrong haha)) and so basically that’s what I’ve started and today is when I’ve started lol XD ill post pictures of the clothes tomorrow. Idk if i posted jacket yet, it will be new here. I hated the first time i wore my ‘quest’ costume, so I’m hoping to get better pictures lol. New big beard, weapon, and lake town-Esq clothing yay! Lol
