Description
From right to left: Ingwë - Finwë - Olwë

I know Finwë doesn't match the other one I drew, but I'm still figuring things out. Anyway I've been looking into the cultures of the Eldar, it's a lot of fun! I wanted to base them off of certain cultures, but I'm not sure which ones yet...
So, my thoughts on this:
I want the Vanyar to look weird. They're the closest to the Valar, and them being gods I think it's only logical that they're 'weird'. There's a sense of divinity and otherworldliness, which makes them appear kind of alien and maybe even sci-fi ish. The primary colour they wear is white and really pale, light colours. The decorations are mostly kind of piping and appliqué. Their jewelry is also mostly constructed out of steel pipes or bars with a few chains. They keep things simple, but with a strange touch.
The Noldor are show-offs. They use lots of bright, deep colours, mostly like gems. There is a lot of intricate embroidery and patterns on their garbs, laid in with precious stones. Sometimes their robes come off as armor and kind of imposing. Any jewelry they wear is heavy and complicated crowns, bracelets, necklaces, etc. Lots of gold as well. Rennaissance fashion inspired me;;
Telerin clothing was hard, but I decided that they wear lots of natural colours and fabrics. The fabrics seem to sparkle and instead of embroidery they mostly have certain textures, like crushed velvet for example. Their garbs are light and flowing, and any accessoires are often gemstones hung by delicate silver chains. The colours are often light and soft, mostly pastel colours and natural pigments.

I'm gonna look if I can make line ups per clan, to explore the variation of course c:
