#Silmarillion Fanart

[sadlybeans]

Do I have several unfinished wips? Yes. Did I still bring out my box of embroidery thread to do this despite having dozens of other things to do? Also yes. Is it crooked, not completely accurate and uneven? Absolutely and at this point I do not care.

So yeah anyway, the emblem of the house of Finwë :)

Might make it into a pendant idk

Portrait of Annatar inspired by classical portraiture

I think this turned out unexpectedly cool. Luthien and her shadow cloak that she weaved from her hair

Maedhros wip

I read the silmarillion a few months ago and became quite obsessed with it.

Maedrhos became one of my comfort characters and my favorite of the entire Tolkien legendarium.

Maitimo / Maedhros 💜✨. I love him so damn much. I've been drawing him a lot lately and I thought it would be appropriate to give him a reference for how I imagine his scars. I still need to change a few things to be happy with the way i draw him.

Companion piece to this painting

I painted over my Annatar portrait with my design for Sauron revealed.

I like to think of Saurons later-age appearance as being bleached of colour, and very wraith-like with shadowed eyes and deadened lips. I also really dig the design in the PJ films where the Mouth of Sauron has cracked lips because of the evil poison he speaks so I was inspired to recreate that here.

Anyway, hopefully the idea comes through lol
