Legolas after his dad tells him he needs to go to Rivendell to tell Elrond and Aragorn they lost Gollum

The Death of Beleg Me and @chechula were listening to The Children of Húrin read by Christopher Lee. His dramatic voice fits perfectly 🐲💖

I have waited too long — Morwen.

The Myth.

This one was created as the last artwork of 2023.

More of a mythical/symbolic imagery than a realistic illustration.

Thinking about how perfect the Silmarillion already is and about how even more perfect it would be if Tolkien actually got the chance to write it properly.

Don't get me wrong, Christopher already did a great job at publishing all of his father's works (he didn't have to do that, no one made him spent years trying to organize an entire world), but as it is the Silm is just a large summary of events, and even the separate books that focus on just one story like Luthien or Turin are more very detailed summaries then actual novels.

I mean, imagine Tolkien got to write all that out the way he did with Lord of The Rings, it wouldn't be a trilogy but (a ten-logy???) at least ten books!

Imagine reading all those already heartbreaking scenes the way novels are normally written, with more dialog and detailed descriptions and everything, the way we now only get it in fanfiction.

And I think that's kind of what this fandom is doing. We take all those notes and ideas and give them details and life. We finish Tolkien's legacy because he couldn't do it himself.

Fuck it have two over-rendered Orodreth & Turin portraits

Quick sketch of Turin, I illustrate him like this (since he is absolutely an adventurer), with ragged cloth and athletic body. He shows a glimpse of charismatic aura since his father was a great hero among mens. Hurin's blood runs inside him. I make his attire darker because he was pretty much the opposite of his cousin, Tuor.

This is for couples who have an in-text interaction... Because I know there's others that we love but it's all in our heads like Eomer and Lothiriel. I'm also not including the Valar because that's just a whole different cup of tea

You can pick based on books or films or a bit of both. Whatever moves you but I would LOVE it if you put which in the tags

Turin portrait

I tried to make a painterly painting and I chose him as my subject.

Many a man of arms misreads patience and quiet. She did much good among us at much cost. Her heart was not faint, and patience will break at the last.

They dared not touch her, though, for they feared her; proud and fair as a queen, before sorrow marred her. Witchwife they called her, and shunned her. Witchwife: it is but “elf-friend” in the new language.

In truth little fear was seen in her face or her bearing. Tall and strong she seemed; for of great stature were those of Hador’s house, and thus clad in Elvish raiment she matched well with the guards.
