welcome, newbies, and beware!

This is a blog about random things that i'm interested in. Currently, it happens to be the Silmarillion and venerating the Supreme Dark Ginger Lieutant, Sauron sama. All hail the Dark bby and his Evil Overlord * cough cough lover*Melkor Bauglir!! (/oAo)/

‘Alas! alas!’ cried Legolas, and in his fair Elvish face there was great distress. 'The tidings that I was sent to bring must now be told. They are not good, but only here have I learned how evil they may seem to this company. Sméagol, who is now called Gollum, has escaped.’

‘No wonder you elves couldn’t hold on to the Silmarils, you can’t even hold on to a 500 year old Hobbit,’ muttered Gandalf under his breath.

I’m so disappointed when elves in fiction are merely immortal humans with pointy ears, and dwarves are just short humans with beards. Perhaps others enjoy it, but I am bored of banal human conflicts and vices projected ad nauseam onto supposedly inhuman races. 

I want to see things that really make me believe elves and dwarves and other fantasy races aren’t just disguised humans. Show me strange biology, incomprehensible minds, impossible virtues and unthinkable sins, oddities and curiosities of all kinds. 

I think that’s what drew me to Tolkien’s races, who have exactly those kinds of quirks that set them apart from ordinary humans - like dwarves having only 1/3 of their race female, or elves being capable of telepathy. I love fic that explores the consequences of these strange characteristics most of all.

Elves’ ears twitching to catch a sound or perking up/down when happy/sad

Elves’ eyes dilating when they get angry (a telltale that gives them away except for those who mastered controlling it) It’s scary

Elves sleeping while walking (canon) and they’ll sometimes look around unseeing at whatever dream they’re having (freaking everyone else out)

Elves letting out a soft hiss (or big one) at someone they hate (eyes major dilated)

Elves not blinking while you talk. It’s freaky but they’re just paying attention. Honest. That’s all they’re doing

Random awkward silences. Why? why aren’t you saying anything? (they’re communing with someone else. Or sleeping. Humans will never know) And why are you always cocking your head?!

Dwarves scratching at the ground and listening to rocks to determine a good camping spot

Dwarves constantly telling Men what rocks to collect for better beard growth (don’t even bother with Elves. beardless twits)

Dwarves telling bedtime stories of how an iron vein became an ingot and how he became friends with the copper coil they set him next to

They unconsciously make music while they’re hammering. Rhythms and beats with all the pounds and clinks

Dwarves stomp their feet before getting into a fight to warn the ground it might get hurt

Humans asking why the bleep they got put on the planet with either of them

Desolation - created while listening to Yiruma’s River Flows in You on repeat.

One day, a long long time ago, i thought to myself: “ what would the world look like, for me, if all of us were to dissapear?” -and i saw the shadow of a great tower, one that couldn’t fit in any picture, left to rot. 

Around it, nature would have claimed its rights. On the shapes of the forest that has grown since the dawn of mankind, snow would slowly settle, seemingly covering everything that is, was and would be. 

Back then, all i could see was the gloom of the tower, but now, as the image came to life, i can feel everyhting in my drawing shining with a sense of purity from the snow. 

Damn....this sure took me long enough.

k so story time:

i went to the local shakespeare festival (and by local, i mean on the other end of the state) and during the day i convinced my mother to go hiking with me because we were in the center of like four national parks

so we end up hiking this trail that sort of jack-knifes down the mountain and I end up climbing partway up a tree on the edge of the trail to see further out, so my smartass mother asks “legolas, what do your elf eyes see?”

and i, in my smarmy glory, go “they’re taking the hobbits to isengard!”

which is funny enough as is, but then the entire mountainside of hikers hidden in the trees goes “THEY’RE TAKING THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD-GARD-GARD-GARD-GARD! THE HOBBITS, THE HOBBITS, THE HOBBITS, THE HOBBITS TO ISENGARD, TO ISENGARD!”

and that’s how an entire hiking trail of people who never actually saw one another convinced my mother i’m some sort of meme-summoning mountain troll

Here’s my first OC in awhile~ his name is Eric, 17, and with the personality of an angel with diharheea.

i can’t wait to work on some comics with him, ever since i started imagining it i’ve gotten really caught up in all the possibilites!

[flamelurkers-deactivated2017092]

does anyone else feel incapable of pursuing a romantic relationship because they think of themselves as something entirely worthless and disgusting and extremely unworthy of affection and love? like, just the thought of some poor soul having to be around me like that makes me cry. nobody deserves that.

[adoptayuki-blog]

Actually, in my case, i just ignore my own ugliness, even though i know it's still there. It's just that whomever may confess to me and no matter what relationship i might enter, it feels empty and it makes the void inside even greater. At some point, it feels so dull that i just have to bail out and that makes me feel like shit because i break those people's hearts. At the same time, the crushes i have, on the RARE occasions when i have them, are thus selected by my subconscious so that there's no chance of anything happening. This leaves me with the illusion that i'm still trying, so that i won't give up and fall completely in despair. So i guess it's like karma, always searching and hoping that one day that void might dissapear, while it grows larger and darker.

MAKE THIS DREAM LAST

[adoptayuki-blog]

The second drawing of the series, Making of Arda, which, being the lazy ass that i am, took me more than a month to finish.

Featuring Melkor showing to an adorable fire spirit he met how to control and materialize his inner flame - i used another color palette, which i hardly respected and remotely remember where it came from. 

Hope you like it!

Skin tone swatches, for use as a resource. 

Spudfuzz on Deviantart made the original resource, which I modified to be a bit more realistic. She gave me permission to post this.

☛These swatches, like all art resources, should be used as a “jumping off point!” All colours are relative, and change with lighting conditions. As they are now, these swatches work best for adoptables, character lineups, and other art where local colour is important. ☚

Tell me now, how can anybody refuse joining the dark side when it’s ruled by such a sweet innocent Evil Lieutant?

(It’s part of a drawing i’m working on since like forever -university’s a bitch- but i just had to steal the bby from there and turn him into a wallpaper. Enjoy!)
