Shade with a Blade

The elves in Tolkien's art have pointy ears - whether or not that characteristic carried over to orcs is debatable. Maybe orcs didn't have ears at all...after all, it never says specifically that they did, right Legate?
Just kidding.Of course, Tolkien also paints Beleg with a pointy beard to go with his pointy ears...

I am inclined to think that Orcs could potentially be good, but that their predisposition for evil would dominate in nearly every case. If there were any good Orcs, they would very VERY few and far between indeed.

I know about eyes, at least, but ears may also be there... keen ears, sure, I believe it is mentioned somewhere...
