The reason that Elrond and his sons still seem elven is because of Elrond choice to remain with the destiny of the first-born. Although his bloodline might be 9/16 Eleven, 6/16 Human, 1/16 Maia (I calculated it, i'm such a geek) his his life and destiny still follows that of full blooded elves. There should be no difference in how old they look they are immortal. They don't show age they simply show the wisdom and grace that accomponies age.
