@admirable-mairon requested I draw my Annatar, so here he is! I finally drew the old silver fox himself, as he appears in Blood, Song, and Silver.

Gosh, he looks so trustworthy and wise! I’m absolutely going to trust him with all my dark secrets and the greatest power known to elves and men! 

(Turns out I suck real bad at drawing plants, so for reference, he’s surrounded by branches of holly– because Eregion– and branches of a yew tree, which traditionally represents death and has deceptively similar looking berries.)

requested by @samwise-po-tay-toe-gamgee

the beautifully magnificent and amazing Milker face was created by @cy-lindric and it’s a beautiful gift to the Silmarillion fandom about as precious as the bloody rocks themselves, just that there are no elves killing each other over them

amazing

Today I posted this oldie as a #fanartfriday on Instagram, and joked that I’d been wanting to renew it and make it into a painting.

Turns out, the way to get inspiration to draw more fanart, is to post old fanart! 😅 I found that I couldn’t go another day before actually trying for the painting, so here is the sketch planning it. (No they are not supposed to be naked, but I couldn’t bother with the clothes in first round, and I don’t complain 😏 honestly, so in love with Maglor, it’s not good! 😱)

I also added the hair color roughly to make it easier to see who’s who, and I also tried to make their expressions and grief kind of symbolise their personalities, and I’m quite happy with how individual they all are! 😊 (And yes, only one twin, had no room for a second 🙈)

From left: Maedhros, Celegorm, Caranthir, Maglor 😍, Curufin and Amrod/Amras(whichever twin survived the burning ships in that one version 😅). And obviously Feanor is hanging between them 😥. –

I am really really loving how much it has evolved from the original. Obviously a scene like this is a lot easier to draw digitally, but still, I feel I’ve evolved a lot in two years (I better have, right) and I honestly can’t wait to develop this sketch more!!!😁✨🙌

Let know what you think! 😊😘
