TAR-MAIRON

Nerdanel and her red babies

Since Tolkien gives us little detail about Curufin’s death, I drew this headcanon of mine where he’s killed by Nimloth :3

Fëanor & Curufin: Splendor. They are wearing Noldor informal daywear inspired by Baroque/Rococo European Aristocracy (17th–18th century), especially the Sun King and the extravagant courts of Versailles. Opulent, luxurious robes with theatrical flair and shimmering footwear. Fëanor is wearing the dramatic gemstones that once belonged to Míriel. Fingolfin & Turgon: Discipline. They are dressed in Vanyarin court fashion inspired by late Ming Dynasty China (17th century). I tried to portray the restrained elegance of high-ranking Ming officials and princes. Layered hanfu, structured silhouette, and minimal jewelry. Refined nobility rather than ostentatious wealth. Finarfin & Finrod: Harmony. They are the most timeless here in my opinion. They are wearing Telerin outdoor fashion inspired by Ancient Mediterranean clothing (particularly Minoan and Classical Greece) mixed with Art Nouveau. Lots of drape and movement, sandals (because the Teleri love walking by the sea), gold jewelry, olive greens, laurel-style headpieces, wrapped waists. I tried to go 'less' historical noble and 'more' idealized gods.

Close-ups of my favorite details I'm forcing upon y'all

Morgoth and his Lieutenant

Maglor writes originals

Fingon does covers

And Finrod is a freestyling wiz

As a thanks for all the well wishes I decided to draw the next watercolor style butt elve for you earlier !!

It's Finrod tho I felt like drawing him

Finrod!!! Because yes and also I wanted to try out the Hades artstyle (could've been better but eh it's still cool)

I've also been playing around with his design a bit

Bonus under cut:

No crown you wore in the night of chains,

Yet brighter than jewels your spirit blazed.

In Sauron’s halls your last breath waned,

My doodle for TRSB challenge. I wanted to draw two most unpropable Middle-earth characters together. So here is Lobelia Sackville-Baggins and Finrod Felagund ♡ I think their conversation topic is ancient tableware ♡
