New Silmarillion-themed illustrations by "Dresden Codak" artist Aaron Diaz

Aaron Diaz, who draws the Dresden Codak webcomic, also has a tumblr account, and on it has been drawing his versions of some scenes from JRR Tolkien's Silmarillion.

He says, "The black eye markings are used to mimic the dirt marks the Noldor get while working their furnaces, as they are very proud of their crafting and metalworking."

You can see this effect in his image of Finrod and Galadriel.

Nice. That's some sharp work. Clean lines

That is pretty awesome. I don't often see much about the Silmarillion. Wondering if that is going to change after the Hobbit Trilogy.
