Ulmo raises the Sea against the defiant Numenorians that broke the Ban of the Valar.
Based on the Silmarillion. Painted in Artrage and Photoshop.

Note: This is the third version of this drawing. Lots of things were still bothering me in the composition, lighting and the sense of scale (not to mention the JPG artifacts).

The old one is here for comparison: [link]

I like your drawing, RalphD. Please note, however, that this is your own mythology, though based on Tolkien's. In the Silmarillion the Valar have actually returned their power over Arda to the Supreme Power. The destruction of Ar-Pharazon's fleet and Numenor was due to Eru Himself.
But your Ulmo is very well done and really terryfying. Thank you.
All the best,
Notengolmo
