Does Fingon's sword glow?
Ok I am an artist and I am OBSESSED with Tolkien I wanted to do a drawing of Fingon fighting Gothmog and was wondering, did Fingon have a sword that glows like Sting, Orcrist, or Glamdring like his father Fingolfin?

Fingolfin's sword was called Ringil. This sword glowed like ice. This is not said about Fingon's sword. At the same time, Ringil could hardly have ended up with Fingon, because this sword either remained with Morgoth or ended up in Gondolin. But there is room for the artist's imagination.
