so many decisions made by medieval lit characters are explained by the fact that they all hit each other on the head with metal objects for fun

gwyn and edern (and blodeuwedd)  i wanted to design a gwyn ap nudd that isn’t just herne the hunter 2.0. i like gwyn’s association with the mist and dark, lonely places. i think blodeuwedd would be his friend i also like to imagine edern is an annoying little brother lol

It just occurred to me that some people maybe haven't seen this cool tv ad from Visit Wales, which aired in 2017.
Transcript:
Deep in the soul of epic, a million legends lie, Awake and reimagined by people passing by. Arthur, Glyndŵr, Llywelyn, heroes of wild Wales. Epic legends living in storytellers' tales. Branwen and Blodeuwedd, Merlin's magic might, Llyn y Fan's great beauty, Rhiannon's birds in flight. You become the legend and teller of the tales, When you find your epic deep in the soul of Wales.

anyway, if you were ever wondering what Gwyn fab Nudd was doing in the 1890s, he was in Boston.

🥺🥺🥺💖💕💕💕
My friend’s been sending me your stuff because I randomly became obsessed with Yder/Edern (despite the rest of my Arthurian knowledge being scattered bits and pieces) and I just gotta say I LOVE all of your stuff with him. Keep it up, you’re an incredible artist!
omg it's so nice to meet another Edern fan! Hello!! Thank you so much and I hope I'm doing him justice!! 🥰🙏

predictably, i'm a fan of the theory that the owain ap nudd mentioned in geraint and enid is a spelling error 😌

My commissions are sold out for now 🥰💖 thanks so much, everyone!! I'll be focusing on getting those finished as soon as I can.
I do have a few pin badges left though! They come with this fancy backing card ("Twrch Trwyth will not be hunted until Gwyn ap Nudd is found, in whom God put the spirit of the devils of Annwn, lest the world be destroyed") 😌
