The Grey Company sets out from Rivendell.

This is from last November! Inspiration kicked me in the face and I had to draw this scene of the Lads leaving the Last Homely House to go to their Doom... I am still completely obsessed with the way Lord of the Rings Online expanded upon what is only a footnote in the books, and took us on a journey of angst and heartbreak; so my plan is, as I replay the content, to illustrate every step and write a fic about my own character's involvement in it.

But yea. I cannot imagine the Grey Company without the Ranger NPCs from LOTRO anymore.. <: They are now canon and beloved to me. Here we have Lothrandir on tiny grey Mithul, Tirirandir (who is my character) on his borrowed horse Pîn, his best buddy Candaith on a liver chestnut I don't believe has a name (?) and Halbarad the gigachad with Arwen's banner.

I still have a love/hate relationship with the colours, but it's one of the better pieces of last year. 2024 in general was one of the better years in terms of personal art; I wholly attribute that to getting into drawing Tolkien fanart and discovering new communities!! After seven years of film school, I'm finally inspired and motivated again to create and share, and that's bliss to me!

"He's done it! With eight seconds left on the clock, Amdir has put the Greys up by one in the third period!"

last recorded goal by Amdir before getting traded to the Carn Dum Cargul. he was never the same

Second scribble (took very long, I dropped the full render because the lines took ages), Lothrandir and Radanir Going North. I realised that I severely missed an opportunity, so eventually I'll do a version of this where they're in winter ranger clothes and Radanir is watching the northern lights :)

There's a part two to the Lothrandir fic that is just Radanir and Lothrandir going north and figuring out how to be normal again and falling madly and devotedly in platonic-love and never leaving each other's sides forever and ever.

Thanks to @suchprettypieces’s comment about this blog’s title… I might be working on what amounts to a whump pinup calendar of LOTRO Rangers in various situations most of which involve chains. Here’s the first one, dear Lothrandir in a somewhat compromising situation 👀🥵

(And yes most of them will be in loincloths for absolutely no reason but hotness and all of them will have a Ranger cloak or cowl but be otherwise topless because that’s funny)

@a-lonely-dunedain started it. Frick it! Ranger appreciation. one Million Screenshots of Lothrandir Attack!

I'm sorry I just really love him, your honours

I wrote a bit of a whump fic inspired by the fantastic Sunflower of Evendim LOTRO fic by @anarlossethedunadan. But since Lothrandir is not the POV character and whump is what I’m good at writing I got inspired to write what happens to him during his captivity… and might have gotten carried away…
