I Hope You Like Elves @aevelothi - Tumblr Blog

Let's be real, I've missed this old happyplace and it got me through some rough times about a decade ago. So much has changed on here, but this place still feels like home!

What have I been up to these long years? Life has turned weird but interesting, highlights being:

A very firm handshake from James McAvoy

A phone call with a prince who was actually pretty chill

Eating leftover steak on the Swan Lake set at 1am

A screenwriting credit on IMDB for a zero-budget vampire movie

Operating a fog machine for the first time in front of 2000 people

But more importantly I'm BACK IN THE FUCKING BUILDING AGAIN with yet another Morrowind replay, and puzzling my way through Procreate as a result. So many things to draw, so many feels.

Love ya, Tesblr.

Lovely saying hi to the guys behind Henry of Skalitz and Sir Hans Capon from Kingdom Come: Deliverance yesterday! Just managed to pop through before the queues got properly insane.

They were both fantastically sweet about my last-minute biro art - Luke was veeery careful with his lettering, and Tom was apologising the whole time he was drawing the flower (though look how cute it is!). I told him about the hundreds of hours I've spent picking flowers as Henry so it had to be done :')

#kingdom come deliverance #tom mckay #luke dale #kcd #i made a queue friend who thought my card was from the official merch #i was like nah man look at all the wonky edges and pencil #also tom said he enjoys the flower picking mechanic too and reckons he should be levelling his herbalism more in his current playthrough #legends both of them #maybe some more art is in order #henry of skalitz #sir hans capon #my art taggie

Idk if you still do stuff for Lleryn anymore or anything of his backstory, but I'm curious about Evesa if you'll indulge me, just like in general

I haven't recently, but sure, ask away!

oh my god. so it turns out that you've made even more fanart that i hadn't saved but left a POWERFUL impression on me. just came across a couple of them and i've been getting blasted by the same emotions i remember feeling OVER A DECADE AGO. holy fffffffff your art is SO evocativbe. aaaaaaaa

Oh gosh thank you so much! I'm glad my older art is still being enjoyed, that's really sweet <3

Paton Yewbeam from the Children of the Red King series! Lipstick courtesy of his 10-book-long will-they-won't-they crush Julia Ingledew.

I only ever had the first book (Midnight for Charlie Bone) as a kid, but Charlie's uncle Paton was always my fave. Possessor of a very destructive power, nocturnal recluse turned father figure for a magic 10-year-old, and super intense about his history books (and a certain bookseller)...what's not to like?

i just spent three hours frantically going through a years-long backup of photos, videos and documents to find one specific piece of fanart that has stayed in my mind since i first came across it in [checks date] march 2017. i haven't been on my tes kick since then, but got dragged back in about a month ago and. hhh i'd spent so long just looking for that piece. i love love loooove all the Foul Murder art out there but your piece (from your pink reindeer days) has been The Piece for me. I'm so glad i had the foresight to save it when i first came across it because I searched for hours on tumblr last week to no avail. what i'm saying is that you have fantaaaastic art and I had a few more pieces of your works saved from back then and I adore them. god they're so good the way you work with colour is SO GOOD

Awww thank you so much! This is why I've kept all my super ancient art up - Tesblr was my happy place in the mid-2010s and so many cool artists have vanished or wiped their blogs since then. Glad you've had a good trip down memory lane and thanks for the likes <3
