Rhovanion Inspiration and Concepts

Thread of inspiration/ concept builds for Rhovanion (specifically the men who live in the region).

BFME2’s design actually fits really well, it feels nordic but also highly influenced by the dwarves.

Re-posting Jacen’s drawing here. Won’t really work for Dale itself, but would be great for the settlement that will lie at the foot of the Iron hills.
