@thejackmaster replied to your post “can you prove that anyone in lotr has ears”

Concept: the reason that Frodo specifically does not have many ears is to set him apart from Sam, who has hundreds of ears scattered Argus-like over his body.

the phrase ‘all his ears’ implies more than 2 (otherwise you’d just say ‘both his ears’) so this is very plausible

# HEYYY SQUID IDK IF YOU READ PEOPLES TAGS ON UR STUFF BUT IM DRAWING YOU SOMETHING! # ITS ALMOST DONE # I NEED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO TAG YOU IM NEW TO THIS WHOLE TUMBLR THING (@thejackmaster)

PSA: I read all of the tags on my stuff. All of them. I’m constantly tempted to reply to people’s tags, but I’m never sure how weird that would be. Also, I will literally die of happiness if you draw me something. Please please hmu when you finish!

@thejackmaster: Awwwww, wow, thank you so much!! I can’t believe I got you into TRC but I am so glad I did! Now you’re in Raven Boy hell just like me! Hm, the video does have plot elements from TRB, TDT, and BLLB, so unfortunately I would recommend holding off if you’re really committed to avoiding spoilers. (But there’s nothing too specific if you didn’t already know what was going on sooo... your choice if you want to take a chance on it.)

@thecauseofdeath: Yes! Aced it!

@alittleaboveaverage: SO. MUCH. WORK. But thank you!! I’m so glad you loved it, every time I get super nice feedback like yours the work pays off a little... I still might have carpal tunnel though idk.

anon: Thank you so much!! The song is In Dreams by Ben Howard. Tbh, I’m pretty sure it’s a quality song because I’ve listened to it over 300 times in the past few months because of this project and somehow I still like it.

@darkelegance: YESSS!! Tbh, this is so life-affirming to hear that it’s what your heart needed. Because this series is ripping mine apart, I want to drag everyone in with me! Thank you!!

Hi! You've been talking about your trc animation for a while, and all the stuff you've posted so far is gorgeous and I'm just wondering...what programs do you use to draw and animate?

Hi, first of all thank you so much!! I don’t typically animate a lot, but I’ve been using a combination of photoshop and after effects to do all my animating for this project. I’ve always wanted to branch out more, but I still do all my digital art in photoshop.

What program did you use for that oikawa taking off his shirt animation? how many frames was it? how long did it take to draw? when i saw it i asked all those things in the tags and then the more i stared at it the more i REALLY wanted to know so here i am asking you for real! It was an absolutely beautiful animation!

Hello hello!!1. I used Photoshop’s timeline to animate Oikawa2. About 24 frames, or at least I remember it to be 24 frames (so about 1 second)3. It took me about two weeks to complete between work and other commitmentsand thank you!! I’m flattered that you liked the animation~ and I just saw your tags too, I hope I answered all your questions (ノ^∇^)
