OG Art by choistar

[sakasakiii]

an attempt at drawing almost every named character in the silmarillion (minus a bunch of Men characters bc i didnt have designs for them, as well as assorted minor elves like salgant or elenmire + the valar and most maiar cuz im still redesigning them) 😙

been really busy these past months but i worked on this on and off in-between (you can see a process gif here!!). since ive got a bit of free time for now, ill try to get back to being more active :D sorry for disappearing out of the blue again but happy almost half a year... wait wdym we're almost halfway through 2025 already...?!?! ToT

edit: just in case there is trouble viewing the picture in high resolution (idk if tumblr is compressing the quality or anything haha), here is a link to it uploaded on pixiv where (i hope!!!) there should be no problem 🤞

Sons of Fëanor Relating to Bible Characters

Maedhros: Prince Jonathan and/or Job - Maedhros would relate to Prince Jonathan because his dad has violent tendencies/possible mental health issues and his best friend is a harp-playing warrior that eventually becomes king in his place. I don’t think I need to explain why Maedhros would also relate to Job.

Maglor: David - yet another harp-playing warrior that becomes king (for a short while in Maglor’s case), is a fan favorite in spite of the colossal mistakes he made, and also copes with depression by writing songs and singing about it.

Celegorm: Samson - would 100% do everything Samson ever done, from wrestling a lion to collaborating with foxes for arsonist purposes to using a donkey bone for a weapon to women being his kryptonite.

Caranthir: Matthew and/or Solomon - he does get rich on tolls and taxes, after all, and I’m pretty sure he would prefer the finer things in life. (I was going to put Judas Iscariot, but I highly doubt he would stoop so low as to betray a close friend/family member for thirty pieces of silver. We all know he would’ve considered that to be less than his lunch money.)

Curufin: Aaron - not in the sense that he would be a great priest, but with the whole Lúthien fiasco, he strikes me as the kind of guy that folds under peer pressure, and he could - and probably would - make a golden calf if pressured enough to do so. Celebrimbor is most certainly the same way, considering what he went through with Annatar and the Rings.

Ambarussa (Amrod & Amras): Esau - a couple of redhead hunters that may or may not trade their entire inheritance for a bowl of soup (or a Silmaril).

Do you think these are at least partially accurate?

Of Caranthir

Caranthir, With a glass of wine in hand : Whoever said money can't solve your problems, must not have had enough money to solve 'em.

Caranthir : They say, "Which one?"

Caranthir : I say, "Nah, I want all of 'em"

Caranthir : Happiness is the same price as red-bottoms!

I've been thinking about how similar the Sons of Fëanor are to the Sons of Jacob, mainly in the sense of the mayhem they caused wherever they went, and whether Tolkien might have been inspired by them somehow.

[writerrose1998]

Maedhros: I prevented a murder today. Fingon: That's great, Russo! How did you do it? Maedhros: *staring at his brothers* Self-control.

Y/N cuddling with Maedhros when he asks her to scoot over a bit.

Maedhros: Love, do you mind rolling over a bit. My arm is numb

Y/N who picks herself up and climbs off the bed and moves to sit on the chaise instead, eyes teary and grumpy: Are you happy with your space now?

He sat up quickly, hair a tousled mess, guilt stamped across his face. “Valar, that’s not what I meant.” Crossing the room in two strides, scooped you up from the chaise with barely a grunt, and carried you back to bed. “I swear you’re more dramatic than Maglor. You’re my favourite weight. Stay put.”

"And it is told of Maglor that he could not endure the pain with which the Silmaril tormented him; and he cast it at last into the Sea"

[whorefindel]

being a silmarillion fan is looking at a piece of fanart featuring forty different elves who all have the same shade of either black or gold hair and instantly being able to tell by their vibe who is who and which finwhatever is which
