Sauron the Dark Lord

My take on Sauron in his shape of a terrifying dark lord. Because Sauron is often associated with fire and his later symbol is a red eye, I decided to go against the trend of making his armour black. I also wanted to make the armour resemble reptilian scales, as a connection to the dragons. While I had given Morgoth's appearance a vaguely Nordic feel I wanted Sauron's armour to be a bit more Oriental, because so many of his human followers hail from similar cultures.
