You can’t be socially awkward if you don’t enter social situations.

“It is told of Maglor that he could not endure the pain with which the Silmaril tormented him; and he cast it at last into the Sea, and thereafter he wandered ever upon the shores, singing in pain and regret beside the waves.”

This map was redrawn in SAI/PS. You can use it to make stuff for your own purpose. Here is a Chinese version I just finished =)

Another note: Suddenly found out, one font that appears on the map is called “Stonecross”.

Just drew some Cryptics!

Thank you all for sharing your memories of Star Wars Rebels. It was a wonderful show to make, and the entire crew is humbled by your outpouring of love and support with #RebelsRemembered. I tried to think of something to sketch for all of you today, but I couldn’t come up with something from the past, so I drew a possible future instead. It’s always good to check in on old friends, don’t you think? No, this is not a new show, just a drawing I did today for you, the greatest fans there are. Thank you.

From Syl’s point of view, these books are basically one of those cliche movies where the teenage girl really wants to race horses but her father won’t let her because her mother died racing horses; then there’s this one horse who won’t let anyone ride him but she KNOWS has the potential to be great, so she sneaks out and trains him and even though one time he throws her so her leg breaks and her dad freaks out, they eventually win the big race and save the farm. In the very end her dad begrudgingly pats the nose of the older but not quite retired racehorse who’s been begging him for sugar cubes every time he came to the stability to drag his daughter out, a sign that in the direct-to-dvd sequel, he may take up riding again as well.

The best part is that the role of the horse goes to the guy whose hatred for horses is a literal fandom meme

Finally got around to pre-ordering Shadows of Self (though I haven’t been reading any of the preview chapters), so I felt like doodling some of the cast.

I still think I should’ve cropped it and turned it into a portrait
