I’ve been flickering in/out of the Tolkien fandom for about 7 years now (mainly on tumblr) where I focus more on the Silmarillion. I started out as a roleplay blog for a version of Tauriel I rewrote to make Silmarillion/book canon-compliant and things kind of spiraled out over there. For the past few years I’ve been focusing on making Silmarillion and Tolkien fanart, as well as trying my hand at writing fic (which I’m working on actually finishing + posting one day). Outside of fandom ventures I’m a full time student studying medicine so you can imagine how dry my life is outside of fandom.


About This Piece


While I was working on some headcanon stuff I stumbled across a series by Moth on youtube (linked in the post!) called the “Source of the Rings” in which the first video made the case for a Chinese coded Gandalf and I subscribed to the idea immediately and I knew I *had* to draw something on it. The next thing I knew I was sobbing.
