Roger Dean, 'Blue Demon', 1972 ”Used in 1974 by the band Gravy Train for their album 'Staircase to the day'. I painted this because I loved the colours of the background it was that simple. An interesting band I always thought that they should have done better. Strangely enough the most copied part of the album cover was the logo that I made for “Staircase to the Day” with the steps floating up into the sky.” Source

oldest sibling finweans as kids. i remember a post about finrod being a little biter as a kid (hence the batshit werewolf moment) and i agree and also propose: finrod as the kid that brings home animals like "mum can we keep him please please please" (so his love of the edain was no surprise to anyone who grew up with him)

ID: two digital colored illustrations featuring legolas, gimli, and aragorn. 1) legolas and gimli riding a horse together, with gimli sitting behind legolas in the saddle. legolas is a pale, skinny elf with long pale blonde hair, a big pointed nose, and long pointed ears. he wears green layers and a grayish cloak that matches gimli's and aragorn's. he's holding the reins and looking ahead with a deeply flustered and slightly bewildered expression. gimli is a short stout dwarf with ruddy, long curly hair and beard. he's wearing a helmet, red sleeves, matching cloak and an axe on his back. he grips legolas' sides for stability and looks away in the opposite direction with an equally flustered expression. 2) two drawings of aragorn on his horse. he's a slim man with tanned skin, stubble, and dark brown jaw-length hair. he's wearing a matching cloak and silver vambraces. he's holding the reins and looking behind him with narrowed eyes and an expression of annoyance. the second drawing is him in the same position with the same expression but he's rolling his eyes. end ID

re-reading the two towers again and decided to dig up and color these old sketches

What if I let him grow out his hair? As a treat. Work has been busy and very NDA. So you get OC doodles for now.
