Morgoth the Black Enemy



Morgoth Bauglir, the Black Enemy is from whom all evil in Middle-Earth stems from. This guy was tough! The challenge was trying to make him more menacing than Sauron, because this is Sauron’s and all evils master! I changed his weapon up too. In the earlier versions, Tolkien equipped Morgoth with a poison sword; so I went with that instead of Grond, his hammer of the final version. The colored version ended up ...a little on the dark side, going to have to lighten up in the future. Anyways that's all for now!

You've been spoiling us, my friend. Hope you keep this up. Definitely a bad ass looking foe to go toe to toe against. Any climatic confrontation in this book your reading?
