Reblog this if you’re an active Tolkien blog
I’m actually three inactive Tolkien blogs stuffed inside an active blog costume.
Month: June 2015
The Silmarillion is just a very long series of fanfic prompts
Elevations and details of the erection of the column on Place Vendôme, Paris
The Hobbit – art by J.R.R. Tolkien (1937-1938), illustrations 2, 5, 6, 7 and 9 colored by H.E. Riddett in 1976.
I just love these so much ;___;
sudden doodle of Valinor Melkor >3
okay i yield, this is hilarious XD
eehn:
I would like for Maedhros with several gold teeth to become more of a thing in the Silm fandom tbh
yes.
tbh i’m not going to be that interested unless maedhros looks like he’s been over by a lawnmower.

Tuor and Voronwe Approaching the Echoriath of Gondolin by KipRasmussen
real talk tho sauron and princess bubblegum would
not become friends bc they don’t make friends, but they’dtalk for hours and respect each other’s abilities and work even if they disagree on the universal importance of sugar>:I THIS IS THE TRUEST THING EVER WRITTEN ON TUMBLR
Soon: the Taffy-Orcs of Minas Morgul are the most terrifying and indestructible enemy ever faced in Middle Earth
their only weakness is water and then they just turn the battlefield into impassable fields of candy glue
the elves tried eating them but they could only get through half an orc before they had to go home with tummy aches

Aaaaaaand HOLY SHIT GLORY HALLELUJA PRAISE MELKOR it’s the end of my commissions queue! (/￣▽￣)/ *:･ﾟ✧
That means I can come off hiatus and:
A) start working on drafts and asks again
B) start illustrating THE GREAT AND POWERFUL PANDË VERSE
C) maybe actually get another comic page done please god
When I start taking commissions again I’m going to actually start using a slot system like a sensible person so I don’t have a queue scrolling out into the vastness of forever. Much as I love making clients wait six months before they get their turn mea culpa, not knowing if they’re even still interested or able to commission me, I THINK THIS SYSTEM WILL BE BETTER FOR EVERYONE. >_>;;;;;;;
Anyway, I’ll let you guys know when I’m ready to open shop again. :’) You guys are the best and I really, really appreciate the work you give me, both as much needed financial boost and as an opportunity to grow as an artist. Thank you so much! ❤

Septarian nodules of Marl with Pyrite
Septarian nodules are a type of concretion; they are masses of mineral matter formed when minerals in water are deposited about a nucleus (such as a leaf or shell or other particle) forming a rounded mass whose composition or cement is usually different from the surrounding rock.
In contrast to most geodes, which are volcanic in nature, Septarians are a form of sedimentary geode. They formed on sea beds millions of years ago and, when they dried out, they cracked and formed hollow interiors. The
interiors usually become either partly or completely full with other minerals.Locality: riverbank of the Volga, Ulyanovsk region, Russia.

I gotta disagree on the “most geodes are volcanic in nature” part here. They can occur in both volcanic and sedimentary rocks, wherever you have open spaces, and I’m not sure there’s a good and true accounting of them. Most of the ones I’ve seen at rock sales are in sedimentary rocks, but that’s obviously not a good sampling either.
