FRODO!

I’m on a huge painting kick at the moment. I’ve always wanted to make a decent Frodo painting since I was in high school and I never really could but this one I’m SUPER crazy proud of! Hope you all enjoy!

ANNUAL LOKI : 2021

I wanted to paint something from the new trailer, so here’s our guy!

Loki for the Tattoo AU

Others in the Tattoo AU:  Thor | Steve Rogers | Tony Stark | Bucky Barnes | Natasha Romanov

[maximum-rex]

I see three of his kiddos, love that from the MoM, but I am vvvv interested to see that Jörgmandr appears to both be biting his own tail in a version of the Ouroboros, representing cycles, wholeness, and infinity, but also looped into what looks like a traditional Dara knot, meaning personal and spiritual strength as well as the roots of an oak tree………..perhaps Yggdrasil? If so that is a SHITTON of meaning in one symbol, love that.

I also see Thor and Frigga’s initials there, right along his spine. Perhaps symbolising that they are his backbone?

The scarification is familiar, and I believe I saw interpretations somewhere that the marking on the arms are supposed to stand for armour, protection, and strength.

Also spotted that lock of hair up there 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀!!!!!!!!!

(My own thots and things are in the tags bcos the one idea is vvvv sad :(()

Ya just and edit but I realised I didn’t properly lose my shit the first time over these arts? Cos FUCK ME UP OVER AND SIDEWAYS AND CALL ME A SOFA THESE ARE EXCELLENT. THE SHADING?!!?!THE EXPRESSION?!?! THE MEANINRGS?!?!??!!???!??! Just excuse me while I AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[pineapplebread]

Thank you for this wonderful interpretation, this is amazing!!!

So you definitely hit everything. Loki’s children are indeed the ones inked on his back. Sleipnir, the eight legged horse Loki had birthed, as well as Fenrir on his right shoulder, and Jormungandr on his nape. The original idea of Jormungandr twisting the way he is is a version of Ouroboros (cycle of birth and death, which Loki himself has been through many times, but also symbolizes the end of the world, Ragnarok his children bring about in Norse Mythology) but I love your interpretation of the Dara knot of personal and spiritual growth and even tying it to Yggdrasil. 

The runes are for Thor (top) and Frigga (bottom). Odin, his other family member is not on there because not only did Odin treat Loki like crap, Odin’s rune in Norse mythology is “unknowable.”

The scarification are to show Loki’s Jotun roots and beginnings. In Endgame, he had reclaimed his lineage, proclaiming himself as the “Rightful King of Jotunheim” as he faced Thanos, and this is him taking back that part of himself and showcasing it on his body. They are like the scarification other Jotuns/ Ice Giants had etched all over their bodies in Thor 1.

I absolutely LOVE this image of Loki. Easily one of my favorites of ALL the Loki Fanart I’ve seen. His expression, his stance, his tattoos, his markings, that little braid in his hair, even the background color! Totally beautiful - I can see his confidence and acceptance of himself after everything he’s been through and it’s downright inspiring. 💚💚💚

Those tattoos are gorgeous artworks themselves.

Such such sadness. This is just unbelievable.

I couldn’t sleep so I thought I’d turn this heartbreak into a little painting. Sorry it’s a bit sloppy, I’ll do a proper one tomorrow.

Rest In Peace, King. 🖤

HELLO TUMMMBBBLLRRRRRRR.

It’s been a while and an entire pandemic, so here’s another Loki painting for you!

[damnyouhiddles]

Can you show us your best dance moves?

THANK YOU!

Suddenly, so many notes and appreciation for my Loki art! Thank you, friends! ♥ ♥ ♥

You guys are amazing and I will make some more as soon as I can!

DISCO LOKI!

I cannot WAIT for Thor: Ragnarok so I drew a DISCO LOKI yesterday - like I needed to be any more hyped! :D 

[grethefenyx]

LOKI : RAGNARÖK

GUYS I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS!  I mean, I am literally never this early on the fan art train, but I couldn’t help myself! I’ve been meaning to draw a Loki sometime soon and when the trailer for Thor : Ragnarök was released, I just had to draw this guy!  Of course, some of you Hiddlestoners will notice that I changed the lighting setup and background dramatically, but I really wanted to work with “neon” highlights as a nod to the 80′s arcade game feel that Taika Waititi is going for with the art direction.

Seriously, CANNOT DEAL - see you all for this in November! ♥♥♥

OH MY FUCK. I AM SO QUIET HERE! ;_; 

Things have been pretty crazy with me lately, fun things and great things and sad things and shitty things have been happening since I last checked in, but I won’t go into the details. 

With the start of the new year, I rediscovered the work of one of my absolute favourite artists on DeviantArt, @littleulvar, and I am completely, stupidly obsessed with her work! ♥♥♥ She draws dudes in a way that makes me want to cry with happiness, so I couldn’t help but draw my two favourite assholes Eli/Ilya and Jordan and paying homage to her by drawing Eli with a man-bun! 

Go look at her work, she’s INCREDIBLE!

[grethefenyx]

I love this so much, though - it’s inspired by the amazing work of Little Ulvar, whom I’m utterly obsessed with!

STYLE CHALLENGE : GRETHE  Okay so, I’ve found out that the #stylechallenge actually needs to be of yourself, so I did this one this weekend. It features myself in my typical lazy-ass, I’m-going-to-draw-myself-ughhhh style and then in Disney, Archie Comics, Akira Toriyama/DBZ, Total Drama and Adventure Time styles. 

I’ve included to bonus eyes - one anime and one Disney - because I have four really cool spots in one of my eyes and I think they’re really cool and distinctive and you can’t see them on all the drawings :)

This was fun, but I think I’m done with these for now! :)
