atm mostly Tolkien/Silm going on here (no ROP).

Let's be nice to each other.

pfp is this incredible artwork by @mephisto-art, inspired by my fic. 🖤 I still can't believe you did this and I could not feel more honored and grateful.

Mind the warnings - this blog is 18+.

If your requests are still open I'd love to see your take on Thuringwethil! 🖤

Love your art so much!

The game Lord of the rings online has an enemy type based on Thuringwethil. They are called Morroval and are tall hot vampire lady. I like to hc that Thuringwethil (and Lhaereth) were mothers of that race. Fallen lower Maiar that were corrupted by Morgoth when he arrived in Beleriand.

I feel for everyone who isn’t having the time of their fucking lives with The Vampire Lestat. Every week I clap and cheer for the antics of the world’s saddest buzzword-laden bisexual crash-out diva and his crew of the least healed men to ever grace the small screen. The songs are cringe delightfully camp, the wigs are a nightmare, I’m living my best life, I’m loving every second. Why the fuck would you have a blood shower in your tour bus. The onscreen mother-son incest is only like the third wildest thing happening in any given episode. It’s insane. I never want it to end

At a time when Netflix is getting roundly criticized for forcing its shows to treat the audience like we have all of two brain cells to rub together, The Vampire Lestat is out here volleying everything from 70s gay references to 1700s Dutch Republic references at the speed of light while saying, "You don't get it? Well, that's a fucking you problem."

And I love that for us.

at last, it’s complete, it’s done!!! I’m so, so proud of this and had sooo very much fun making it. this tea cup is my

~ mugnum opus ~

freehanded map of Middle-earth, painted by me; completely painted by hand, no tracing, stencils, computerized or automated anything, etc., painted with a combination of size 000 detail brush and the tip of a sewing pin for the detail work.

based on the maps in the back of the Lord of the Rings books, showing Middle-earth in the Third Age. the handle has the Tengwar script from the One Ring, also painted by hand.

I worked on this mostly in intervals on the weekends, starting in late December 2024, as my work hours meant I couldn’t visit the pottery studio during the week. I didn’t go every single weekend, but probably like something close to every other weekend! I finally finished the last few finishing touches on it this past Sunday, and it was sent to their kiln for firing and glazing. I just got to pick it up yesterday and can’t get over how vivid and striking the colors are now that it’s all finished and glazed to be food-safe💞

The bottom of the mug’s interior has a Mallorn leaf painted on it (this was done solely with the 000 brush, since a sewing pin is too short to reach to the bottom of the mug) I also included a picture with the light reflecting off of it to show the slight texture I painted with the leaf’s veins and silver accents, to match the fellowship cloak pins.

There’s also Mallorn leaves climbing up the barrier under the handle where the map splits, and then on the exterior bottom of the mug I added Tolkien’s logo along with the designation of the map, my initials, and the year I spent painting it!

I had so, so much fun painting this, like… what an absolute delight to be devoted to this project for so long. I have so many in progress photos from various stages, and honestly I lost count of how many hours this took— but it meant almost a year’s worth of weekend visits to the pottery studio and getting to gradually see more and more of the map take shape on this mug!! I truly had so, so much fun with this and am so proud of how it turned out. I love this so much and had to share ♡

edited the post because I realized that I’d accidentally added one photo twice, and left out another photo: this has now been fixed! ♡
