I listened and like it! I didn't catch anything that needed changing, though see previous comments on me and music.

Tchah, none of that! You're doing the hard part, the part that requires focus; I can make sketches at work, it's totally different.
As for Nargothrond specifically: I'll still have all the characters to do, and want to redraw Finrod at some point. Plus the arch design is deliberately to allow me to use them as 'windows', so there's backgrounds to draw there. Plus all the timing on the video, which winds up being the last step of all. Lots to do, I'm just rattling out some of the easy bits.

So - should it be FINROD'S BALLAD TO AMARIE, or WIND? Both are viable options, and I can "hear" both of them nicely with a fairly simple instrument array. And after the exam I hope to open up the floor again to a wider selection.

Please don't mess up your exam on account of the musical! It's not like the songs are going to run away.
As ever, you should go with your preference of the songs; but if it's literally a coin toss, I think it would be nice to get our third vocalist into play with
Wind.
(For which I will have to draw Valinorean landscapes... that should be an interesting challenge. Not sure how I'll do it yet.)
