#nienna
the emptiest apologies you can imagine. melkor/nienna. I will reblog with an addition outlining some details I really enjoyed adding, linguistic lore easter eggs and otherwise.
Nienna,Lady of mercy
Finally I finished Nienna !!
She was so much more fun to design than I expected and I love the finished results !!
I’m very proud of myself for finally finishing this !! （‐＾▽＾‐）
(also thats Olórin in her hand)

This is Nienna. The Valar of mercy and piy. She weeps for the suffering of the earth and gives the lesson of embracing your sadness while still having hope and gaining wisdom.
Tolkien sketches ! Vala and Maia duos : Melkor and Sauron, Varda and Ilmarë, Manwë and Eonwë, Nienna and Olorin, Yavanna and Melian.
experimenting with brushes– probably going too crazy.
another melkor/nienna. they had their moments. anyway here’s my melkor/nienna/dark souls/philology manifesto it’s really goofy.
