Boromir Lives Au - Tumblr Posts
A commission art I’ve been honored to do by this amazing fic writer! ☺️
I'm still getting caught up on posting stuff since I was sick for a few days, but here is the other piece I commissioned by @drawulan !
Thank you so much, and I can't believe how well you captured Aneurin and Anastasia's likenesses! They are so adorable and I can't stop staring at them! 😍 I know I've said this before, but you are SO TALENTED AND AMAZING! THANK YOU!
Featuring Bergil, son of Beregond, and Finduilas "Fin", daughter of Boromir from my Boromir Lives AU series! This is technically a MAJOR SPOILER for "Garo Estel (Have Hope)" since Fin hasn't actually been born yet, but I'm hoping to finish that fic soon and begin the sequel, "Garthad Estel (Defend Hope)" this year!
Please go and support the artist by checking out their blog!
*crashes through your wall like the kool-aid man* HEY, I'M BACK. The sling is off, my shoulder is starting to remember its job, and I can extend my arm enough to reach my Cintiq. So here, as promised, is BOROMIR LIVES AU, EPISODE 4: THE PIPPINING, a scene inspired by @kaatiba's Boromir Lives AU, where Pippin is the one to finally get Boromir to sleep after the battle of Pelennor Fields.

Finished my last exam for art school, now I'm just waiting for results. You know what that means... *Eyes my 60k word Boromir fic*
Hi!
Finally posting my Boromir!lives fanfic "When the light of life has gone"! First chapter is out 🩷
Before you freak out, yes, it's slash (Boromir/Aragorn with past Boromir/Theodred), but nothing explicit happens AND it focuses a lot on Boromir's declining mental health.
I'll try to stay consistent and post weekly, every Monday, but this is over 60k words to edit right now so it might take more. It's not easy fam.
Anyway, I hope you like it! 💜 Have fun!
Hi!! The second chapter of "when the light of life has gone" dropped! (The Boromir!Lives fic that I've been writing for over a year now 🤭)
Hi! A 3rd chapter of my Boromir!lives fic dropped!
I hope you enjoy. I edited it half sober in the middle of a beach, so yeah, again if you see mistakes, point them out!

the four hunters 🗡🌿
extras + rambles below cut
yipeee i finally finished this illustration 🎉🎉
this is my personal take on the hunters gang (we will ignore that boromir died). honestly, i had a lot of fun thinking of the designs.
had to bring back my aragorn with his silly braid and blue hair ribbon. he's a ranger for most of his life, so he'd definitely go for practicality and what he's already familiar with—so no armour nor gambeson. he probably had a small fight with elrond before they left for the quest; where elrond tried to make him swap his gear for better, newer ones and aragorn just adamantly refusing because he's a lot more familiar (and more comfortable) with his own. which is why he's wearing tattered and worn rags. his red tunic is the only new thing he allowed elrond to swap to a new one. boromir definitely got exhasperated and somewhere down the line, he loaned aragorn his pair of arm bracers.
boromir (and faramir's (not featured here)) design changed a lot since the past years. it's a mash-up of both movie!boromir and lore accurate book!boromir. his hair is a lot darker and he has more of a storm blue-grey eyes as a nod towards his elendil ancestry. his clothing is heavily based off the movie. as for his cloak; since he's The son of gondor and denethor's favourite, i think he'd definitely get the fortune of wearing a fur cloak. the clasp has the white tree engraved on it.
gimli is by far my favourite. i always wanted to draw my take of gimli in his regalia. as a dwarven royalty, i think he'd groom his hair and beard really well, and he would've put on a lot of accessories to show his status. but since he's on a quest, he's not fully decked out in jewelries—wearing very practical clothing: gambeson with chainmail underneath. also, i like the dwarven fighting style they did in the hobbit movie where they go around and knock people off with melee. so gimli got hefty arm bracers and knuckle weights to really punch the shit out of some orcs.
for legolas; i think despite being an elf, he has the factors of being (1) mirkwood elf and (2) lowkey autistic coded. so he doesn't dress "like an elf"—not that the company would've known, with how limited their interactions with elves in general already. this meant that he dressed too casually despite going on a life-or-death quest. very light leather armour to support his speed and agility. he's not even wearing boots; just a pair of tree-climbing canvas shoes that he wrapped tightly. god knows how he survived this far. he's mostly a right handed archer—but since he lived for quite a long while, he taught himself to shoot with left hand too for emergencies. since his left hand isn't as stable as his right hand, he has a left-shoulder-pad.
THEY ALL HAVE SCARS because who doesn't get scars when you're literal warriors be fr. legolas' are more faded out though, because he's old as fuck.
