Second art piece I did for @tolkienrsb / TRSB 2023!! A little late but I think my subconscious took over at some point because I don't remember the last few hours. Here's a sweet, mildly peaceful scene of the pains of raising the first of dragons <3

Keep an eye out for the lovely fic!! @oopsbirdficced / @ingenious_spark (AO3) is the author I worked with <3

Rising as if Weightless | A @tolkienrsb collaboration between @starspray and yours truly! 🤍🕊

“Oh,” Elwing said faintly. She felt the need to sit down, but locked her knees against it. “Then—have they been released from Mandos, my lord? I had not heard that you came in person to deliver such news.” “They have not, not yet,” said Námo, and to Elwing’s surprise his mouth softened into a small smile, there and gone again in the blink of an eye. “Your brothers are still very young; Mandos is not a place for children to grow. They are ready to return to the world, but unlike most others who pass through my halls they cannot make the journey across Valinor alone. Come to the gates of my halls with all swiftness, and you will find your brothers there.” He inclined his head, and was gone.

I am so honored to have my art chosen by one of my favorite writers (and favorite Elwing writer at that!) Thanks so much for being patient with me as I struggle with this artwork :')

Also! Funny story but I based this on one of the prompts on the suggestion sheet and that very prompter ended up picking this art to write for 😆 And I only found out before posting this 😶

Little Idril gives Turgon the first chamomile flowers in @that-angry-noldo's Flowers sprang beneath his marching feet for @tolkienrsb

This heart-wrenching fic of the arrival of Fingolfin's host to Beleriand and the main art will be revealed tomorrow, September 8, 2023!

Fic snippet below the cut.

Turukáno looked away. Itarillë ran up to him, and her face was bright. She was holding a white flower in her hands, her eyes gleaming with warmth and happiness. Turukáno smiled and tucked a strand of her golden hair behind her ear. A camomile, he explained, mind to mind, and her features lit up. It grows in great numbers during the spring.  Itarillë beamed and ran off, and Turukáno followed her with a soft, fond gaze. He looked back to Findaráto and noticed the same tenderness on his features. “Children,” Findaráto murmured. “In Aman we thought them a blessing; a gem to carve, a fruit to reap. Now, though, I look at your daughter and feel - hope. Your father,” he said, and looked at Turukáno again, “might feel like he lost that. What is the meaning of trying to go on if you have lost the one whose eyes gleamed with fire, who looked forth through the veil of the unending snow and said, “I see hope; I see life; I see, far away, the warmth and the peace that awaits us”? And now, that hope lies buried under the ground, and all we can do is - remember.”

Remade

Here's my piece for this year's @tolkienrsb! This is my first time participating and I'm so excited to share what I've been working on with my fic author🥰️

In this piece, Celebrimbor reunites with his family in the Halls of Mandos, hoping to reconcile with them. You'll find out what happens in @goschatewabn's fic when the collection goes live!

This piece, like many of my others, is drawn in the style of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. But this time, I took inspiration from the stained glass concept art from the game and decided to imitate the effect. It took a ton of work- I did a lot of the flat colors and shading all in one day. But I'm glad I was able to challenge myself with such a complex composition!

(From top to bottom, left to right: Nienna, Maedhros, Fëanor, Maglor, Celegorm, Curufin, Celebrimbor, Caranthir, Amrod, Amras)

Meanwhile, along with the trauma from their quest, Frodo grapples with his own feelings for Sam and his growing affection for Rose, while doing his best to stay out of their way for what he thinks is their sake. Rose knows that they're all better together and is doing her best to make Sam and Frodo see it, too, before it's too late.

I am so grateful to have been able to work with @kerkusa in this round of the @tolkienrsb. Could not have asked for a better partner. Massive thanks to the Mods for being ever awesome and to Petra for being ever patient and amazing 💚

One of the art pieces I did for @tolkienrsb / TRSB 2023!! This one features Mairon, pre-fall, fixing a dove's wing—although his methods are unconventional at best, and already have the hintings of their future dragons at worst. The symbolism felt irresistible >:3c

My lovely author for this work is @yletylyf !! It has been such a pleasure to work with them!! THE FIC IS HERE!!

These are some designs, sketches and tests I did before I begun my piece There's An Unusual Guest In Our House for TRSB. I'll be honest, I had SO much fun with (almost) every aspect of the creation of this piece. But mainly just figuring out Thranduil gown and how it's going to be. For as much as I like how he's dressed in the movies I DO get tired of drawing the same outfits over and over again. And I honestly think his move design is missing some green, but that's a whole 'nother topic.

One thing that I'm just noticing is that the gold neckline in some of these is much lower than in the final piece, and i do like it lower... Hmm, maybe next time.

Thank's again to @scary-grace for choosing and writing for this piece. I just CANNOT wait to read it!!

a place where both our hearts may rest | A @tolkienrsb collaboration between @maironsbigboobs and yours truly! This is the first of two art pieces I submitted this year :3

Summary: He remembered how they had once desired glory. How they had once wanted to take part in great deeds. And how that battle had ended in nothing but betrayal and bloodshed. No, Mablung did not wish to be a warrior any longer – he longed for his books and journals, for the comfort of song and the company of friends. Beleg exhaled deeply. “We will not be soldiers again; not captains, not lords, only Beleg and Mablung.” - Beleg and Mablung survived the First Age. In search of a better future, they set off on an exploration of Eriador, but peace is not always easy to find. Word Count: 16,831 Rating: E Characters: Beleg Cúthalion, Mablung of Doriath Relationships: Beleg Cúthalion/Mablung of Doriath Additional Tags: Second Age Road Trip Memory, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Hurt/Comfort, Mentions of canon events and deaths

I will never skip out on an opportunity to draw Beleg and Mablung, my best boys and OTP 😌💕 I've always wondered how things might turn out for them had they survived.. And Heather my fellow Beleg enjoyer (some might say THE Beleg enjoyer) was the perfect writer for this!! They're living their best cottagecore life in this fic, while interacting with a charming cast of character both familiar and original :D

Thank you so much for putting up with my silly little requests throughout the process 🥺 I hope you enjoyed writing for them as much as I did drawing this. And dear (future) readers, I hope you enjoy reading this, too! 💐🌸🌱

Plus, look out for extra doodles from me soon 👀

My finished piece for the Tolkien Reverse Summer Bang @tolkienrsb 2022! It’s my favorite duo ever- Annatar and Celebrimbor. 

I collab’d with @raisingcain-onceagain for their fic titled “lost in the illusion, and i cannot hide” on AO3- it is definitely one of the more unique takes I’ve seen on the relationship and I adore it to the bottom of my heart. Thank you so much once again for working with me!! <333
