Melkor (Morgoth) and Mairon (Sauron) - The Silmarillion / Lord of the Rings [works of JRR Tolkien] (Note: I draw my art on a desktop computer; if you are scrolling on your phone, you will need to zoom in to see this image the way it was intended.)
I just think their whole thing is kind of delightful! Melkor, whose ingrained desires would see him corrupted; Mairon, who thought that was way cooler than what Aulë had going on.
I decided on a crown/armor that was reminiscent of an asymmetrical disruptive blast. It doesn't have to be practical. because it's melkor.
“This is the season,” co-showrunner Patrick McKay confirms to Empire, “where Sauron makes the One Ring in the volcano.” Charlie Vickers’ menacing Sauron is no longer in disguise, done with lurking in the shadows. And as he gets on with the business of corrupting Men, Elves, Orcs, and anyone else who steps his way, the stakes of The Rings Of Power are raising considerably. “We have a full-on villain this season, in a way that was quite different before,” says McKay’s fellow co-showrunner J.D. Payne. Sauron’s emergence “changes the tone of the show,” McKay adds. “This third season is darker, more dangerous. No-one is safe.”
For Vickers himself (pictured in the exclusive image above as Sauron, in his stronghold Barad-dûr) the chance to enact such a core moment in the Legendarium was not taken lightly. “The first day I walked onto that set, I cried,” he tells Empire. “What an amazing privilege and honour to be able to tell that story.” The forging of the scene was as epic as the forging of the Ring itself. “We were doing the Ring across two weeks, because the sequence is so long,” says Vickers. The result is, McKay promises, “the single most ambitious, technically challenging sequence we’ve ever done on the show. Charlie’s performance is absolutely staggering. We never could have prepared for it.”
“The first two seasons were all about building out this world,” says McKay. “But throughout that time, we’re lighting all these fuses and setting all these stories in motion. The third season is when all those bombs are starting to explode.” Sauron’s time is coming.
The Middle-earth drama is about explode in its upcoming season – with Charlie Vickers' villain plunging things into darkness. Read more at E
"At the beginning, Alys is very much Aemond's carer. And as we get to know her over the course of the episode, there might be something more." – Ewan Mitchell

I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to draw melkor and mairon and my answer is... not really like this! but this sketch helped me work towards what I might try next. I wasn't intending to upload it but what the hell 🤔
one of the problems is like ohhh at first I was thinking, this is a pretty easy kind of notion for each bla bla darkness bla fire bla but then it's like heyyy. actually not that obvious. I'm pondering it. I was thinking of like. maybe a chaotic blast kind of vibe for melkor. but I probably won't draw it like this.
