Melkor from Silmarillion that I did for the amazing Lucifer zine! (@the_cursed_zine on instagram)

AU where Sauron literally pours all of his cruelty and malice and will to dominate all life into the One Ring...

And then just fucking stares at at it for five seconds before dropping it on the ground and leaving because without all that stuff he's Nice now.

Progress on my stained glass Narsil.

Arwen Undomiel Queen of Gondor

I drew a little extra sweet moment to this here

And there is a sweet little fic for this now here!!!!😩💕

I'm open for commissions on ko-fi <3

Feanorian lineups are apparently a rite of passage for silm artists, so

I wanted to include Feanor and Nerdanel but they're on honeymoon.

things about middle-earth that sound fake to people who haven't read the silmarillion

the earth was flat until some people pissed off god enough that he punched it round

the sun and moon used to be trees, but a big spider ate them

elves even being in middle-earth can be traced back to one (1) dude hating that people mispronounced his mom's name

sauron is a werewolf

elrond's biological parents are a star and a bird now

there's a sexy vampire lady

fighting a balrog barehanded is so cool it'll get you reincarnated right away even if there isn't a current big crisis going on (sorry gandalf, glorfindel just did it better)

satan got banned from heaven for playing his own music too loud

if you were intense enough in life, when you die, you might literally explode

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: one of the only few bad things about Tolkien's legendarium is that it makes 90% of all other fantasy worlds look either completely or somewhat mediocre in comparison.

Like, what do you mean you don't have a fictional language for your fantasy world? WEAKLINGS
