After I made icons of Melian and posted them, [info]alaniaflamestar requested icons of Arien, the Maia who guided the sun in Tolkien's mythology. (Appropriately, it is 36 degrees in Melbourne today, and it will be 38 on Saturday and Sunday.) I appreciate any feedback, and I might try doing more requests if anyone wants any. I do however plan to do icons of Morwen, Rian and the Finduilasses before you ask. If you take any, please tell me which ones and please credit me. I hope you like them!

Sixteen to twenty-one are good -they have the kind of sunset/dawn-light glow.

Thankyou! The original wasn't that colourful, so I had to mess around with the colour balance and what-not.

Beautiful icons, I love the paintings you've chosen as a base, particularly five, six and seven.

If you can let me know which tengwar font you want to use I will gladly volunteer to transcribe the names for you and email them to you in .rtf format.

Thanks for the offer, but someone did point me towards the
