Elwing and Earendil were descended from both men and elves. Do you think they appeared more like the race of men, or like elves? (After Earendil made his choice to be numbered among the Firstborn, I always assumed he began to appear more elf-like.)

I think that they were maybe taller and less lean than Elves. Ears less pointy. =)

There is a description of Elladan and Elrohir in LotR. Someone, I can't remember who it was, says that they look "like" Elflords.

Fun to think about!

Yes, because they hadn't made the choice in that moment.

Now, Dior was Lúthien's son and Melian's grandson, so surely he would look a bit elvish. On the other side, he was Beren's son too, so that would make him more man alike.

Interesting question!
