Silm Art - Tumblr Posts
I'm very excited to show you this year's @tolkienrsb art I made! It's called Stains in the Snow and it's set during the journey through Helcaraxë, showing Glorfindel at the front and Galdor and Salgant behind him. I'm not gonna give out clues what the art is about, if you are interested you are gonna have to read the story written by lovely @jhelenivarsimae, that I will link when it is gonna be available on ao3 on September 6! I will update this post with the link for it, I'm so hyped to read it myself!! I added two versions of this art, originally I was planning to just put the gif here but the quality is not the best, so I also added a still frame.
After Angband, Maedhros had a complicated relationship with his hair for a long while. The thing he once used to cherish and carry with pride, inherited from the mother he had left behind, was now tainted with memories of unwanted attention and derogatory touch.
After his rescue, it had to be cut short for the sake of his recovery, and he could never quite figure out whether he was more hurt or relieved by the act. It was Fingon, during those times filled with anxiety and doubt and shame, who helped him learn to accept his own appearance again– from the stump of his right arm and the scars littered across his freckled body to the locks of copper hair, ever so slowly regrowing to their former glory.
And little by little, the lingering memories of malevolent hands harshly yanking at his scalp were replaced by the feeling of tender hands carefully braiding familiar golden ribbons into his hair, once again beloved.
'Surely that is a Silmaril that shines now in the West?'
Fleeting light
Close up of this
elrond through the ages based on one glorious panel from chapter 95 of Black Butler (hopefully i got that right....). in the context of this sequence, i always thought it was sad to think abt how many people elrond has lost throughout his life alongside how remarkable he is to remain "as kind as summer" still by the time the hobbit rolls around 🥺
i redrew elrond's poses based on ciel's in the original panels BUT i forgot what page exactly the original panel sequence is... however!! if you scroll down to the middle half of this blog post you can find the original reference pic :D warning that it includes heavy spoilers for the black butler manga so u could just alternatively google 'ciel phantomhive running' and it'd probably be one of the first results that pop up haha
My art for the Tolkien Reverse Summer Bang 2024 by @tolkienrsb.
The wonderful @eilinelsghost took this prompt and made it into an amazing fic about Finrod's reembodiment in Aman, which you will find here after the reveals! It was so great to work together, I can't wait until you can all read her fic!
I CAN STILL HEAR YOU SAYING YOU WOULD NEVER BREAK THE CHAIN
if you’re still taking tolkien requests, i’d love to see celebrimbor :)
First, I asked the very important question: What if he wore white?? Then I asked: What if he wore black??
Anyway, have my new Bimbor design :)
This is first age fashion, not second age, you decide if this is in the first age, or if he´s just slow on trends
My art for the TRSB collab with @cycas

So precious.
Fingon and Gil-galad. I haven't drawn them in a while. :)
I wouldn't be me, if I didn't design a saurona butterfly themed outfit to my boy. :D
//Check out the butterflies! They're super cute. :)
