Description A more realistic portrait of Fëanor, fiery sort and son of Míriel and Finwë, using those oil paint brushes I've been playing with in Photoshop.  The facial modelling is based off actor Tom Wisdom because he sort of has a similar fineness to his jawline (as pointed out by a friend).  For the shirt I actually googled 'tom hiddleson tight shirt' because he's got the right kind of build to him.  Trendy as it is, I think Hiddleston will probably work as a rough body model because Fëanor in my mind has to be thin and taut like a bowstring.  I may also cave in to trendiness and use B. Cumberbatch for the hand model because his hands are really quite glorious.  

Anyway, that's my Fëanor.  Also, costume design is a whole other thing I haven't gotten to yet and that shirt is still quite rough.

Waw… I love this! "taut as a bowstring" does really fit him. I also like how there is this feverish tension in his gaze and expression, without taking away from his beauty…
