This is AI generated (that's allowed here, right? I didn't generate it). But it's very pretty.

Sauron vs Olorin during the war of wrath (a head-canon)

Where did you get this idea from? The War of Wrath writings are very sketchy, the only Maia mentioned is Eonwë (or his earlier "incarnation" Fionwë). For that matter, Sauron having taken part in it is extremely dubious, as he kind of disappears after Huan nearly destroyed (and badly damaged) his bodily form. Looks like deep fanfic territory to me.

I mean he's captured by Eonwë at some point.

I found this on Pinterest and it was captioned Sauron vs Olorin

Well, certainly neither of them looks like Sir Ian McKellen ... 😜

I believe they are done by Martin Grip, but I might be mistaken.

It's either Martin Grip, Martin Fang . . .

. . . or Martin Wolf. I can't recall.

And yes, I apologize.

Eol the Dark Elf

"But Eöl, though stooped by his smithwork, was no Dwarf, but a tall Elf of a high kin of the Teleri, noble though grim of face; and his eyes could see deep into shadows and dark places."

I was always fond of the later interpretation Tolkien made of Eöl where he was a Tatyarin Avarin elf (same clan as the Noldor).

It was supposed to appear in the films in a sort of vision.

Nerdanel the Wise

"She was strong, free of mind, and filled with the desire for knowledge…She made images of men and women of the Eldar, and these were so alike that their friends, if they knew not her art, would speak to them.”

Look what I found!!

Almost all artwork I see of Maedhros grieving for Fingon shows him grieving over a more or less complete/intact body of Fingon. But this... would not have been the case...

This may be the very first book accurate art I've ever seen on the subject.

@Fingon_Findekáno @Tyelkormo the Fair @Glorfindel Goldtress Tagging you guys since we've talked about this a fair amount.

This is indeed a very accurate portrayal of Fingon’s death, his body basically becoming indiscernible from all the mud and blood. There literally was no body left when the balrogs were done with him. 😖

Turgon, Fëanor, Penlod (from Gondolin), and Aegnor.

Is he smiling?? My brain must be short-circuiting.

ElfinFen's character drawings tend to have a lot of personality to them:
