Midjourney Monday: Elves of the Silmarillion

I wasn’t actually trying for Silmarillion characters when I started playing with the AI prompts (mostly involving niji 5 mode, Alphonse Mucha, and Harry Clarke and sometimes Frank Frazetta) which led to these Midjourney-generated pictures. But, somehow or other, that’s what I ended up with. Minor tweaks were made to hide or fix distorted hands, and add pointed ears to the Felagund character (the original prompt had been for a human D&D style cleric.)

Feanor at Alqualonde

Nerdanel, left behind.

Miriel, hearing about the Kinslaying from the new arrivals in Mandos.

Aredhel, cousin and friend of the Sons of Feanor

Eol, who entrapped Aredhel into marriage, holding his black sword Anguirel.

Amarie of the Vanyar, who waits for the return of her betrothed from Middle Earth by way of Mandos.

Finrod Felagund, friend of mortals, brother of Galadriel, betrothed of Amarie, re-embodied in Valinor. This is how the descendants of Beor depicted him in Numenor, before its corruption.
