I'm reopening my commissions!!

I am currently still unemployed and starting to struggle a bit, so even just signal boosting this post would be of immense help!!

I mostly do age of sail & polar exploration art (like The Terror and Hornblower!) but I'm open to OCs, any and all ships, and fanart! Will draw the kind of art that's no longer allowed on this website, too, should that be of interest 😉

I have two slots available, contact me via DMs or email me at [email protected] (no "y" in the email!) if you'd like to reserve a spot and discuss things further :D You can find more examples of my art in my art tag on tumblr and also over on my trello where you can find even more commission info and further details ✨

Thank you 💖

#The Terror #Fitzier #Rossier #Hornblower #Horatio Hornblower #Horatio Nelson #James Fitzjames #Francis Crozier #I will draw any age of sail stuff!!#I also do OCs and notsafeforwork stuff #brainyraccoons draws #commissions #please signal boost if you can!!

Need you guys to convince me that Hornblower is worth it because I hate boats and the ocean and yes, he’s hot, but THIS ONE 👇 is so pretty!! Pretty boy!!

I was so deep into the Hornblower x Bush stuff last night that I forgot to mention I was trying to work out who pushed Sawyer down the hold (if he didn't actually fall) and I think I have finally worked out my conclusion...

I think...Wellard did it.

Hornblower is keeping quiet because he saw and helped Wellard get out of the situation and protected him, being honourable enough to keep to the story after Wellard's death while also keeping scrutiny on himself.

Also, I do think when Bush asked him finally during their lodgings with the Mason's, Hornblower would've told him if he had been involved. They were at Peace, he trusted Bush a lot by then, but it wasn't Hornblower's secret to keep.

Also the men recalled how awful Wellard was treated by Sawyer, bad mental health or no.

#you should've seen me trying to connect the piece during my reread #I mean Hornblower is pretty loose with the laws of war so him doing this wouldn't be too much of a stretch #especially after Simpson #but I dunno #lieutenant hornblower #hornblower #let me know what you guys think?

This quote is so funny but also like that is literally the most efficient summary of the difference between these books sdhfjhds

#i can't speak to bernard cornwell i have not read sharpe nor am i planning to (this is from his wikipedia page though lol)#but it certainly is true of the difference between the aubreyad and hornblower #anyways to each their own. this is the best introduction to the boat book fandom though #pick your poison shdjfhsdkf #perce rambles #aubreyad #hornblower #(also to be clear. he was so real for saying this. as he is for literally everything he said sdfhsjkdf)

Part two of ao3 fanfic lines that go extremely (emotionally devastatingly) hard !

Part one (although quite a mess) was pretty popular and I have tons of these in my gallery so please enjoy -

no. 1 - the best mcu spiderman fic I have ever read (seriously it's amazing) called The Third Option by Uncertainty_Principle

no. 2 - a merthur classical music au called Pianos are made for Falling by Fishwrites

no. 3 - another beautifully written merthur fic called the time is drawing near now (yours to claim it all) by ariadne_odair

no. 4 - a short and sweet Hornblower fic called I Will Not Sleep by speakmefair

no. 5 - another Hornblower fic (they're all so poetically written ??) called No Quarter Given by Paraxdisepink

no. 6 - a s3 au of the walking dead (part 3 of a series) called If You Love Something by CrossBowDontMiss

no. 7 - a beautiful klance fic called never saw you coming by dimpleforyourthoughts (one of my faves!)

no. 8 - a nightwing centered batfam fic called your continental divides by isawet and reisling (made me tear up ngl)

no. 9 & 10 - once again the amazing ongoing atla rewrite/au following zuko - The Art Of Burning by hella1975

please tag the authors tumblrs if they have one!!

(and of course I'm not forgetting that one stucky line - we deserve a soft epilogue, my love - that line is forever in my head even though I've never read the fic 😭)

Reading hornblower but shaking my head the entire time so everyone knows I don't agree with the actions of the british military in the late eighteenth century

Available miniatures

I'm currently low on money and there's a lot of problems, so here's what is available. Five resin and wood ark pendants, two landscape pendants, several megaliths, two botanical painted pendants and Archie Kennedy brooch. And there's also a shipwreck diorama in a shell. Reblogs would be really helpful, thank you
