S3 speculation but I wonder if Kemen eventually gets a ring because Sauron sees too much of his past self in him. They literally have that Middle Management vibe trying to punch up above their weight class 😂

#TheRingsOfPower

Kemen arrives at Pelargir with other Numenorian soldiers. He is wearing a sling on his right arm, a green and golden cloak, with a lighter green shade tunic. The soldiers are wearing golden armored breastplates over green shirts and pants. Kemen said in the captions: “Pelargir is no longer a colony of Numenor but a fortress for its soldiers. And I am its commanders.”

Jack Lowden’s Sauron is speaking in front of many orcs. He has long light brown hair and is dressed in red regal outfit that has gold trims.

Pam from The Office, dressed in a pink sweater, says they are the same picture.

#Tolkientober Day 5: Hope

For this prompt I could only think of the most truly hopeful scene in all Tolkien adaptations for me🖤🤍

P.S: Inspired by "The Swan" by Hilma af Klint✨

#Adar #Galadriel

Colour illustration (in browns, blacks and blues) of Adar and Galadriel standing in front of each other with a hand extended. Adar has Nenya on the palm of his hand and is offering it to Galadriel, who hesitantly extends her hand to take it.

The scene is split in two halves by the tone of the background, very dark behind Galadriel and very bright behind Adar, so Galadriel's figure is silhouetted against the dark background, and Adar's is silhouetted against the light background.

There is a halo of blue light around Nenya, also enveloping their outstretched hands.

There are forms of trees and roots in both backgrounds, white in Adar's half and black in Galadriel's one.

#Tolkientober Day 3: Crown

The day of the anniversary of Adar's death I wanted to go back to the parallel scene and recall when he and his children broke their chains by smashing Sauron down with his own crown👑

Their story might be doomed but I'll keep clinging to this feat😌

#Adar #Orctober

Monochrome illustration in blues, blacks, and whites.

In it, Adar stands in the center, walking forward, holding Sauron's crown in his gauntleted hand. He turns to look down at Sauron's remains, who has been beaten down by his Uruks and himself and lays now reduced to his clothes and a pool of black blood. Behind him, four Uruks with glowing eyes crouch or partially hide, with expressions of fear or expectation, as they watch the scene. All the characters appear covered in frost after the blast provoked by Sauron's fall.

#Tolkientober Day 4: Armor

Sauron in the First Age, when he was Morgoth's lieutenant👁️

PS: I love armours so I think this prompt should appear in every Tolkientober 🦾

#Sauron #Armor

A color illustration depicting Sauron in full body, all cladded in a dark armor. He is holding a spear in his right hand, and wears a small, spiked crown on his loose hair, which glows as fire. He also wears a cape that flutters in the wind and shimmers slightly. His face is tense and his gaze glows.

The color of the background and also the tone of the figure es bright red.

It only took me 6 months but I finally finished this more detailed version of my previous study of Adar from The Rings of Power (S2).
Watercolour on gessoed paper, 16”x16”
#adar #glug #ringsofpower #watercolour #watercolor

A watercolour painting of a pale scarred elf, Adar, with long dark hair and wearing armour and chainmail, sitting in a shabby tent at a rough hewn wooden table on a haphazardly made throne made of pieces of wood. His sheathed sword is propped against the throne on his right. Lit candles are on the table and a torch is behind him to his right. A tall orc, Glug, stands behind him to his left, wearing random pieces of armour, his face partly lit by the torch.

My chara-designs for the Teleri Royalty : Part 7

Oropher, Thranduil & Legolas.

Yes Thranduil looks suspiciously like Elured because i always find a way to include propaganda for my headcanon.

Next will be Lothlorien royalty with Amrad, Amroth and Nimrodel.
