I finally made a non-art blog so I can interact like a normal person instead of just lurking

hi can i request something with finduilas the elf and turin please? thank you!!
Hi! Thanks for the request, here they are! Sorry it took so long, I have been slow at art lately
Next up is Varda and Manwe
If you have not reached the limit yet, can I ask for Nienor for the Pride Requests? I leave the flag up to you, but the bit we get of her, especially pre-losing her memories, gives me some kinda vibe. I will always take any excuse to see more of your art!
Transfeminine Nienor! and lesbian
I looked at both Barbie and Sleeping Beauty for references for her. I think that is an important detail.
Celebrate Pride with me
Look at her! She's perfect! I love her expression, it feels perfect for her!
My fatal flaw is that I can't say no to @peasant-player
Here is my reverse merman. I am not really a make pin-ups kind of person. So here's a *partially* Faithful Numenorean
Round Two
Alright, round two. Once again five slots are open. First five to reply to this post get a papercraft guy!
I am sending these physically, so they will require some kind of address to send to. I can ship internationally. Please don't put any personal information in the replies. I will reach out to you if you are one of the five
This is just for Tolkien. But I am also happy to do a Tolkien OC
All ten slots are claimed!

Okay! Here we go! Round One
Alright, just a few things real quick
There will be five slots available in this post. All you have to do is reply to the post. That's it, first five to reply to this post get a papercraft guy!

Remember, these are Tolkien only this time, though I am willing to do Tolkien OCs
If you don't manage to get one this with this post, I will be doing it again at 9 pm Eastern Standard Time!
Okay! That's it! First five slots are taken, I'll open up five more at 9pm Eastern Standard Time today

Okay, last post before I do the little papercraft guy thing on Sunday. I personally really like instructions to be detailed and clear ahead of time, so I will do that for others.
I'll do two different posts this Sunday (the 24th). One at 11am Eastern Standard Time, and one at 9pm Eastern Standard Time.
For each post, 5 slots will be available. This will be first come, first serve. Just reply to the post(s) on Sunday saying you're interested (specific wording doesn't matter). That's it. I take the first five to reply on each post, after which I will reach out for what you want and your address. I'm sure it goes without saying, but please, no one put their personal information in the replies
At this time, this is for Tolkien only, but I'd be happy to do Tolkien OCs. One character per person.
These are NOT commissions, they are completely free. I am simply doing this for fun. I probably won't send these out until July
If I get through the initial batch quickly I *might* open up some more slots. If not, and all goes well I would probably be interested in doing this again in the future!
Any questions, feel free to reach out to me beforehand!
A few things I should clarify that I left out:
I can ship internationally! These will be shipped as letters, with a hard plastic case to protect the papercraft card
I am willing to use my designs, your designs, or any adaption (movies, stage plays, video games, etc). I will not use the design another artist came up with if you are not the artist, that belongs to them
And finally, this is all for fun. But, as I am doing a large batch of these and it's not a commission, I will not make any changes to a papercraft card. I will be happy to take all the references and descriptions you have. And I will be happy to show you the initial sketch, if you like, which you may request to be changed once.
Upon completion, I can send you a picture of the finished piece if you like, or you can choose to let it be a surprise for when you get it!
Okay, think that's all for real!

Interest check, I guess? My birthday is coming up in July, and I was thinking of doing something kind of hobbit style. I was thinking of offering up some free little paper craft guys that I could send to people who were interested. It'd be one a person, and as of right now, I think I'd probably cap it off at doing, like ten max? Because it's physical media, it would require an address to send out, so I guess be aware of that. Probably just Tolkien characters. I'll have an example below, they are pretty simple and are about maybe an inch or two. The example doesn't have a backing, but these would
If people seem interested, I will do another post with more specifics
Okay, seems like people are interested! More than I thought!
I will put out an official post on Sunday. I *think* the best way I can think to do this is first come, first serve. I also think I will break it up and to two different times on Sunday to account for different time zones? Perhaps 5 slots in the morning and 5 in the afternoon?
If there seems like a lot more people interested than slots, I may do more when I finish the initial batch?

Gothmog and Fluithuin inspired by conversations in the TRSB server where *somebody* was explaining who Fluithuin is by saying she was originally the mother of "some balrog"
It ended up being a bit of a mother and son mini series with @peasant-player, @holy-marmalade, @the-dreaming-plastic-dinosaur , and @thelien-art (who has one in progress)
If I've missed anyone I'm so sorry
Go check out all of theirs if you haven't yet!
Just a moment with mother and son before he goes to destroy some "hidden" city those elf losers live in? Should be quick right? He'll be home in a few hours max
hi! can i request aragorn with arwen please? maybe their first meeting or anything really, thank you for your beautiful art works
Thank you for your kind words! Here's Arwen and Aragorn
I was originally going to sketch out their first meeting, but the idea of them as King and Queen after the War of the Ring just kept popping up in my head. So I just decided to follow that thread. I will eventually do their first meeting, I do really enjoy drawing them.
I hope you enjoy!
Also, I have used @peasant-player's wonderful patterns in this. If you have Clip Studio paint you should check them out!
Next up is Finduilas and Turin
Hurrah! Requests! Always such a delight to see your work on my dash. 😀 How about a little loyal Edrahil? I've got him on my mind. Thank you for all your gorgeous art. 😍
Aw, thank you!
Here he is! Edrahil for @sallysavestheday! I had a lot of fun drawing him. I seem to have settled into a blue and gold color scheme for the Arafinweans and their followers.
When I said earlier this evening that I'd have him done sometime this weekend, I apparently meant in a few hours. Who needs sleep?
Also, shout out to @peasant-player, who's new pattern I used twice in this piece
Next up is Arwen and Aragorn!
Tagged by @silmalope to share a WIP
I only have one, I marvel and envy people who can have multiple pieces going. My brain can not and will not
But, here is Edrahil line art I just finished last night for a request. I think I should have him done sometime this weekend
I have no idea who has already been tagged? So, open call to anyone
I have a little plead to those who use clip studio!!!!
I just uploaded my first pattern✨️
Not gonna lie the tiling is terrible lmao but its free and very vintage looking
Its called "berry vintage pattern"
I just would like some feedback
On:
if its blurry or odd to use
if gradients work on it
I put some texture on the pattern for those that dont use them normally:
Im curious if that makes a cool effect?
should I upload a "clean" version with the textured versio?
Maybe different gradients?
I didn't not proofread the description but
Is it understandable?
The instructions clear enough?
Im tagging some ppl i know use clip studio and/or have vastly different approach to pattern and effects
@southaway @tar-thelien @balrogballs @astral-aromance
But please everyone else feel free to try it out as well!!! It would help me alot <3
the pattern is free and all of my pattern will be free to give back to the community!!
I found it very easy to use. I didn't have any issues with it being blurry. I didn't try a gradient, but it worked very well for me with how I use pattern assets
