Saruman Of Many Colours - Tumblr Posts

And here you will stay, Gandalf the Grey, and rest from journeys. For I am Saruman the Wise, Saruman Ring-maker, Saruman of Many Colours! "

'I looked then and saw that his robes, which had seemed white, were not so, but were woven of all colours. and if he moved they shimmered and changed hue so that the eye was bewildered.

Soo... Here's a shitty drawing of Saruman and the image that got into my head while reading this.... Yeah.

A part of me really wants the next Gundam AU to have a fantasy setting.

Like, they’ve already made a bunch of designs that are just crying out for a fantasy aesthetic - Grazes and Reginlazes look like Knights, and I’ve always found the Barbatos Lupus to have a wizard vibe. I’m obviously biased in favour of Iron Blooded Orphans here, but Zeta and Reconguista in G both have a ton of units that look just as appropriate for a kings court as they do to a spaceship dock. Heck, we just had a series that focuses around the concept of Witches. It’s not like it’d be much of a leap either, between quantum brainwaves, newtypes and GUND-format machines present in other series.

But then another part of me’s just like “Yeah, but Aura Battler Dunbine and The Vision of Escaflowne haven’t gone anywhere, and they are very good fantasy mech settings.”

So I think what I really want is just for the military-industrial complex to be represented by WIZARDS.
