Nicely done! I love how these turned out! Especially the one on the left!

Gorgeous. I love me some Finweans. My dark-lord-fighting sweet child. My crazy, murder baby.Β And my pure and innocent golden child, who fathered the BAMF-est elf to ever grace Arda.
Are you going to draw Finwe's daughters next? I know they're not in the official book, but the ladies need some recognition.

Hmm I'm not sure who I will draw yet! I've wanted to draw Finrod for a long time but I'm not sure yet. I've also considered drawing my own concepts of the Valar but I don't know if I have the energy.
(Also I didn't know that FinwΓ« had daughters! I've only read the Silmarillion so far and I haven't been able to read the Unfinished Tales or the History of Middle Earth yet)

Okay. Sounds cool.
(Yeah, Finwe had at least two daughters. Findis, who was born before Fingolfin, and Irime Lalwende, who was born after Fingolfin and before Finarfin. There's also, possibly, a third daughter, Faniel, but whether she's one of his official children is debatable. There's not a lot about Finwe's daughters, either. Findis remained in Valinor with her mother, but Irime followed Fingolfin to Middle-earth and just disappeared, though she may have died in battle.
Sorry, I get a little obsessed with minor characters. You probably also didn't know about Fingolfin's fourth child, Argon, because he was written out of the Silm, too.)

Well hopefully I'll be able to read the other books sometime soon so I'll be more familiar with the minor characters! (It's been a while since I read Silm but I haven't read anything else since, so I really need to pick the series back up)
