Thank you for the tag!

Here's a snippet from Ancient Elves on Secret Errands, which I will need to continue, at a certain point :')

Everyone heard the horn Boromir always carried with him. Everyone heard the noise of battle starting. And some of them started the fight, as they could, some others let Frodo go down back to the river and cross it. What no one was expecting was a giant Elf with fiery red hair, the expression of someone who had slain Orcs as their favourite activity and holding a sword that ws as lethal as death itself just cutting down them all like they were nothing more than green wood. And the Orcs, created by Saruman and fearless to anything, for their first time felt fear and fled - those who managed to survive. When all was finished, there were only Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Maedhros and a very wounded Boromir. And Maedhros was watching as that man was dying and swearing fealty to Aragorn. Something moved inside him, something he had thought was long dead. He had lost too much, was he really going to let these children go through that kind of pain? No, not on his watch. He moved next to Aragorn. "This man is going to live, Aragorn." He turned towards Boromir. With very mangled Westron he spoke. "Boromir, look. Me look." And the Gondorian looked at the Ancient Elf, who now was speaking a kind of Elvish unknown to him. "𝐼𝒻 𝒶𝓃𝓎 𝒢𝓇𝒶𝒸𝑒 𝒻𝓇𝑜𝓂 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝒱𝒶𝓁𝒶𝓇 𝒾𝓈 𝓁𝑒𝒻𝓉 𝒾𝓃 𝓂𝑒, 𝓉𝒽𝑒𝓃 𝐼 𝒻𝑜𝓇𝓈𝒶𝓀𝑒 𝒾𝓉 𝓉𝑜 𝓁𝑒𝓉 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝑀𝒶𝓃 𝓁𝒾𝓋𝑒." And for a brief moment Maedhros was as bright as a star, as he pulled out the arrows and Aragorn used whatever leftover of athelas he had to cover the wounds, whilst Legolas and Gimli were trying to find bandages. Once all was done, they all breathed in relief. Boromir, somehow, was alive. He turned towards Maedhros. "Why... Why did you..." And Maedhros spoke, still in a very mangled Westron. "No die. Die... Easy way. You oath now. You keep oath." Aragorn enuired in Sindarin what he wanted to say. Maedhros replied. "𝒟𝓎𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒾𝓈 𝓉𝒽𝑒 𝑒𝒶𝓈𝓎 𝓌𝒶𝓎 𝑜𝓊𝓉. 𝐻𝑒 𝒾𝓈 𝓃𝑜𝓌 𝓊𝓃𝒹𝑒𝓇 𝑜𝒶𝓉𝒽 𝓉𝑜 𝓎𝑜𝓊, 𝒜𝓇𝒶𝑔𝑜𝓇𝓃. 𝐻𝑒 𝓇𝑒𝒸𝑜𝑔𝓃𝒾𝓏𝑒𝒹 𝓎𝑜𝓊 𝒶𝓈 𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝓀𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒽𝑒 𝓌𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝓁𝒾𝓋𝑒 𝓉𝑜 𝒶𝓉𝑜𝓃𝑒. 𝒩𝑜 𝑜𝓃𝑒 𝑒𝓃𝒹𝓈 𝓊𝓅… 𝐿𝒾𝓀𝑒 𝓂𝑒."

Sooooo... Pretty much everyone I know has been tagged. So. Feel free to do it!

I was only tidying my poses archive when I wondered if "bench" and "picnictable" really needed to be in folders of their own. But wow, this one really needed an update. Back when I made it, I still rotated every single finger joint separately. The result wasn't very natural-looking. Luckily (?) the fist didn't even make it into my story :D

And now I almost want to reshoot this entire scene. The idea was that as Greio talks about his conversation with Nerena in the past, the focus shifts to the presence, where he's sitting in exactly the same pose talking to another headstrong young girl. The only thing I managed was to use the same pose actually.

happily having some quiet time from social media to allow brain to defrag and am doing a lot of art studies to improve my skills, but here’s some of my old art for Throwback Friday! I originally did these for Halloween a couple of years ago and my big pansexual heart loves my spooky ladies ❤️ what other spooky icons should I paint this year? Please give me suggestions 😁

ok I already posted Emily before but I’m too lazy to edit her out 😅
