I tried something, I wanted him to look a bit unsettling and eldritch. I mean. Maiar should be weird.

There is technically glitter somewhere but alas you can't really see it on the picture...

Hello all! An announcement: Ainur Week will be happening again this year! That’s right, another round of the fandom week dedicated to Tolkien’s Valar and Maiar. I can’t wait to see what y’all create this time. ✨
First of all, some housekeeping. Last year, Ainur Week was from September 1 to 9. When would you prefer it to take place this year? Please vote in the poll below. Thanks in advance!

objectively funny how Sauron remakes his whole aesthetic each Age tbh. First Age he’s like, “I’m the werewolf guy! I breed werewolves, turn into a werewolf, I live on the Isle of Werewolves and I kill prisoners in my dungeon there by having a giant wolf maul them to death! Rawr!”
Then he gets his ass whooped as a werewolf, and again in the War of Wrath, and every time he shows up in the Second Age it’s, “I do seduction now. ;) I’m so beautiful and harmless and I prey on your pride and ambitions, earnest and cruel alike, to lead you to your doom. Do you want to make some magic rings with me? 🥺 Do you want to attack Valinor and take back the immortality you deserve? 😘 Rawr 😉”
Then he gets his ass drowned and in the Third Age he’s just like, “Fine, I’m creepy and/or disembodied, are you happy? I’m banally evil. I have dark towers and orc armies and spirits chained to my will, and [tantrum voice] I want my Ring back! Give it back and do what I say or die!!”

It is said that in the making of Arda he endeavoured to draw Ossë to his allegiance, promising to him all the realm and power of Ulmo, if he would serve him. So it was that long ago there arose great tumults in the sea that wrought ruin to the lands. But Uinen, at the prayer of Aulë, restrained Ossë and brought him before Ulmo; and he was pardoned and returned to his allegiance, to which he has remained faithful. (с)

Where the rivalry/tense relationship of the 9 walkers isn’t between the dwarf and the elf, but between the elf and the maia.
Legolas, when he realizes he has to be in proximity of an ainur for days on end: ah
Gandalf, when he realizes the elf going on the quest is a silvan, a people the Ainur have a tumultuous relationship with: mnnnn
Gandalf and legolas repeatedly saying in their head: it’s for middle earth
Legolas, realizing that, while the ainur have a history of not taking responsibility of their own kind’s actions and having a habit of overinflated ego, gandalf is at least trying to do smth about it: you’re ok i guess.
Gandalf, realizing that legolas is at least willing to remain civil and that it could have been worse, it could have been Lasgen: i’ll take it
Gandalf and Legolas getting into lowkey passive aggressive fights on the credibility of the valar (or lack there of) that bewilders everyone else
Gandalf: head to lothlorien
Legolas: are you kidding me?
Gandalf: *dies taking out a balrog*
Legolas: Are you fucking kidding me?!
It’s essentially a rivalry between an atheist and god.
Legolas, looking gandalf dead in the eye: the gods may judge me, but their sins out number my own
Gandalf: *looks at the camera like he’s in the office*

for quite some time now ive wanted to redesign some of my existing maiar designs as well as give proper designs to some ive never really bothered with before, so here's some updated fullbody concepts! im happiest with mairon's honestly, but i really like the idea of olorin being a haggled, minimalistic shepherd who walks around valinor covered in dirt HAHAHAH
i also wanted to explore some of their potential dynamics with each other 😙 esp eonwe-ilmare and mairon-arien as siblings so these are just some quick doodles cuz my neck is in pa i n

Thought I’d try designing Sauron for my dark!Mae AU, so here he is! It’s a bit of a messier sketch than usual, but at one point it was just sitting in my drafts, so I decided to just touch it up and post it XDD
AU-wise, I imagine Sauron’s the most fashionable out of everybody; plus he gets a kick out of parties and masquerade balls since that’s when he can use the full extent of his wardrobe! So Maedros is often forced to put on more feasts and balls than he thinks is necessary whenever Sauron visits him at Himring loll
