At @supraobsessed 's suggestion, I've redesigned a couple more background girlies from Winx!

They aren't for TRC or anything, a loose rule with that au is that no one from the first three seasons can be used. Cause they would be canonically too old to still be at the schools. But I'm also redesigning them based on the design conventions FROM TRC soooooo

This is more for fun and exploring other characters. These are drafts for now, still wanna work on them and give them the time and attention they deserve.

+ civilian designs. No shade to their canon looks, they're cool, but I wanna treat em. Esp Ortensia's leather gettup hey gurl hey

I think if they were in TRC, they would be best friends with a Legolas and Gimli thing going on.

I need to know if there’s anyone else out there who agrees with me that Palladium should’ve kept his original hair in his redesign. Aside from the part where I just think it looks a lot better, it also would help him look less like an off-brand Legolas and more like his own character. I tried to do an edit just to show what I’m talking about here (but since I have no Photoshop abilities whatsoever, I just used MS Paint, so apologies for the quality):

As opposed to the original, with his s2 hair, just for comparison:

See what I mean? Plus, it would get rid of those god-awful tufts in front of his ears that I hate so much and give him those cute, face-framing pieces instead. And see how it changes the shape of his whole face and his entire vibe? Tbh I’d also vote to change the outfit and keep the darker green of his original vest and the darker pants and then make that cravat thing red instead of green since I don’t like the s2+ outfit all that much either, but his s1 one also wasn’t great, but that’s just me. Idk, but I’d be curious to hear what any of you think.

warning: mario movie ending spoilers

i have my own thoughts about the post-ending credit scenes and the implications that peach came from the real world. remember the 1993 movie? what if a spunky tomboy-ish girl called daisy found him and raised him causing chaos in brooklyn? i think that would be a funny shout-out and a cool direction if theres ever a sequel!

That would be cool :)

So you mean Daisy would find Yoshi and he would become her pet, just like how Yoshi in the 1993 movie was a pet of the royal family?

I am curious that, given Peach's backstory, what DOES this mean for other humans of the Mushroom World? Do humans just come wandering in from Earth on a daily basis and get adopted??

Perhaps and hear me out! they can go in a different direction with the origins and species of the other human characters!

For example: given Wario and Waluigi have unusual pointy ears, perhaps they are from the Mushroom World, but instead are another human looking species, like elves.

just not as hot as Legolas

And Daisy could have a slight redesign where she looks more like a plant princess who has control over flowers!

where her crystal strike from Strikers Charged be at Nintendo? 👀 Where it be???

E Gadd could also be a human from Earth, but given how he's a paranormal scientist, he just says "Ah screw it!" because he becomes fascinated with the Boo species and other ghosts in the MK, and wishes to study them.

- - -

Just throwing stuff out there. I just think that all this lore with Peach and the Bros in the movie verse is probably going to cause some challenge for when and if they introduce the other human characters.

y'all remember when I bitched about the character designs in the Drizzt comics? Yeah. Me too. So I ended up deciding to redesign Kellindil / give his comic design a heavy tweak so that he looked less like discount Legolas :>

(Pose reference: ThePoseArchives)

#dungeons and dragons #forgotten realms #legend of drizzt #kellindil #digital art #Art: missrosiewolf #Damn. I should have darkened his skin a lot more. I had headcanoned him a wood elf. I don't think he looks very wood elfy :<

I watched LOTR 1 again and ended up redesigning Dilthen's LOTR trilogy outfit. The old green one was copy pasted from Legolas' but I think with her upbringing she would be quite removed from any fashion her brother has.

I tried to keep the dwarvish roots Dilthen has in the Hobbit trilogy while updating it a bit into adventurer gear. I also quickly designed her sleeve tatoo altho it might be up to change if I ever manage to get an interest in actual tatoo design

“hey let’s reimagine the entire fellowship of the ring” sounds like a great idea after a few glasses of wine...and stays a good idea after the effects wear off. Anyway, here’s the Fellowship.

So Ive been thinking about this for a while and decided eventually that I was just gonna do it, but I wanted to redesign Legolas to how I feel fits a forest elf properly. Because honestly him and Thranduil look like snow elves or smth in the movies, and the palette I used now looks infinitely more like a wood elf's.

In also changing some of the deer lore around him, so he no longer has his mother's deer.

But uhhh fir now this somewhat sloppy piece of my redesigned Legolas !!

Tolkien OC Week: a fandom event for OCs and underdeveloped characters in Tolkien's world!

This blog celebrates both characters of Tolkien's world and our own characters that need more love, by creating and reblogging all kind of fanworks, like fanfiction, fanart, fanvideos, fancrafts, headcanons, playlists, edits, moodboards etc. NSFW text entries are allowed and we’ll tag them accordingly when we reblog them, but please put them behind a “read more”.

We're tracking the tag tolkienocweek!

The event is modded by @niphredilien, @elamarth-calmagol and @stormxpadme and will take place between 26th July - 1st August 2021 for the first time.

******************************************* *******************************************

The event schedule for 2021:

Day 1 (26th July): Shipping - create a piece of fanwork about an OC that you ship with a canon character.

Day 2 (27th July): Family members - create a piece of fanwork about a character who fills a gap left in a family tree (e.g., Legolas' mother, Maglor's spouse, Aragorn and Arwen's younger children).

Day 3 (28th July): Background characters - create a piece of fanwork about a character who is in the background of canon scenes and is either never mentioned or barely mentioned in the story (e.g., an extra from Laketown, a Teler defending their ships during the First Kinslaying, the Haradric man that Sam sees die) and show their view of the events.

Day 4 (29th July): Self insert/reader insert - create a piece of fanwork that includes yourself being in Middle Earth, or write a reader insert story.

Day 5 (30th July): Worldbuilding - create a piece of fanwork about a character who lives in a different place or time from the main canonical events (e.g., a character from Rhûn, a character who stays in Valinor after the Darkening, a character living in Gondor when the kings were still ruling etc.) and flesh out their world.

Day 6 (31th July): Forgotten characters - take a character who is neglected (e.g. Bob and Nob in Bree, Eärwen) or abandoned by Tolkien (e.g. Trotter the hobbit) and make them your own by creating a piece of fanwork about them. Or, completely redesign a canon character to make them yours (e.g., Gil-Galad becoming Fin-Galad).

Day 7 (1st August): Freeform - create a piece of fanwork about whatever resonates with you.

******************************************* ******************************************* We are looking forward to see and share all the awesome work you come up with.

Since we want to celebrate creations about neglected characters all year long, the mods will occasionally reblog posts and fancreations about OCs and underdeveloped characters. If you would like to see your post on our blog, you're very welcome to tag tolkienocweek. Since tumblr's tagging system is often being faulty, don't hesitate to message us, too!

Let's get creative!

I did a bunch of storyboard pro doodling yesterday while watching the lord of the rings so i wanted to redesign Gimli and Legolas. I’m definitely gonna come back to this and do a full version but Legolas rocking an eighties headband but with his own hair and leaves all over his clothes with tan skin? yes please. Gimli with a shaved undercut but with a big mass of hair as well (I i’magined him with a massive braid down the back to fit under his helmet its just not visible here) please and thank you.

March 1, 2021: The Hobbit (Review)

Is “quaint” a good word here?

Maybe its the beautiful backgrounds, maybe it’s the stylized designs that make me think of Christmas specials, maybe it’s the faithful take on a classic story that I loved as a kid, but...I dunno. Quaint’s the first thing that comes to mind here for me, for whatever reason.

All I know is that I did enjoy this movie well-enough...even if it’s not my favorite. Don’t get me wrong, this is still a great story, and I do love the original Tolkien tale very much...but I don’t know if I can say this was my favorite adaptation or not.

Now, it got some things right that the Jackson movies didn’t, at last as far as I’m concerned. Thorin’s pretty good in this film, Gollum is great (as always), and it accurately sums up the story in a single movie without too much omitted (I do miss Beorn, though). But here’s the thing: the things that I think Jackson’s movies did wrong outnumber what this film did right.

You know, the weird addition of Tauriel and Legolas, the added Lake Town plot with fuckin’ Alfrid, the entire Azog thing, the fucking NECROMANCER thing, Rada...well, actually, I like Radagast. He was fun.

And that’s not to say that Jackson’s movies did nothing right. Quite the contrary! I mean, Martin Freeman is a PERFECT Bilbo Baggins, and basically everybody is perfectly cast, to be honest. And that includes what I think is the best part of the films: Smaug, as portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch. And yeah, that motion capture footage is hilarious, but it pays the fuck OFF, what can I tell ya? I mean...come on.

Smaug in these movies is fucking AMAZING, and I genuinely love him. And...well, you know what, let’s actually get into the Review. Enough navel-gazing here. Here’s the Recap (Parts 1, 2, and 3), if you’d like to read that first! OK, let’s get this done and Reviewed!

Review

Cast and Acting: 7/10

Given that this is an animated film, this is an interesting category to grade. I’ll be doing so based on their vocal performances, and...eh. For a Rankin-Bass movie, the vocal performances are a little standard. However, that doesn’t mean there aren’t some standouts. Orson Bean plays a kind and contemplative Bilbo, and while I don’t know that I like him quite as much as Martin Freeman, I do still like his performance. John Huston is likewise good as Gandalf, although Ian McKellen is...well, Ian McKellen, even in The Hobbit films. And then...there’s Brother Theodore. And, boy oh boy, do I love his Gollum a lot! I think he’s legitimately fantastic as this version of the character, and specifically as this version of the character. Andy Serkis is still the better Gollum, I think, but I do think that Theodore handles Gollum’s last line in this film better than Serkis did. However, I can see Serkis becoming the devious little monster he eventually becomes a lot more.

Also, Hans Conried plays Thorin, and all I could hear was Captain Hook, like, the entire time. There are actually a lot of voice actors from the time period in here, like Don Messick, Paul Frees, and Thurl Ravenscroft, and they’re all fine. There’s also Richard Boone as Smaug, and...he’s OK. Not saying he’s great, but...he’s all right. His deep booming voice does work well for the role, and some of his line deliveries are pretty goddamn solid, but...I dunno, he just doesn’t bring the same gravelly gravitas that I expect of, well, a goddamn dragon, let’s be frank here.

Plot and Writing: 9/10

What can I say? It’s Tolkien! And they’re pretty exact with their adaptation of the original work, as adapted and written by Romeo Muller. And yeah, Muller does a good job...but he also writes this similar to how he wrote all of the other Rank Bass specials. If there’s any problem, it’s that. But even then...I don’t know if I can call that a real problem. Still, I’ll take a point off for it, even though it’s really closer to half a point. If anything, I’m upset that Beorn was completely absent. You coulda worked him in, Romeo!

Directing and Cinematography: 7/10

This is essentially judging the storyboarding, and how shots were positioned in the artistic process. And yeah, it’s...mostly good. Unfortunately, true to form for Rankin-Bass production, it often feels just a little too stiff in places. Makes sense since Arthur Rankin Jr. and Jules Bass are the directors. Not as bad as some of their other productions, but still definitely a notable quality of the film. So, points off for that, but the rest of it is honestly fine, especially for animation of the era. What came out from Disney that year?

Oh, damn, the Rescuers? Yeah...shit, yeah, that looked WAY better, and that wasn’t even one of Disney’s best looking film up to that point. Although, different budgets should probably be taken into account. OK, moving on.

Production and Art Design: 8/10

I like the backgrounds in this film a LOT, lemme tell you. They were done by Minoru Nishida, who’s done a hell of a lot of animation stuff, but was also the art director for Kill Bill Vol 1! Neat! But yeah, the backgrounds are absolutely gorgeous here. How about the rest of the art design? Characters were designed by Lester Abrams, then redesigned a bit by the Topcraft guys (specifically  Tsuguyuki Kubo), giving it the very stereotypical Rankin-Bass style that the movie is known for. And does it work? I mean...kinda. The good news is that the different races of Middle Earth are pretty goddamn distinguishable from each other, and creatively designed at that. The bad news...sorry, I never did get used to Smaug, I genuinely don’t like his design in this. Like...why the dog head? By all accounts, Smaug was a stereotypical wyrm-style dragon, with the reptilian features and I. I just...I don’t get it. Sorry, but Jackson’s Smaug wins here, hands down. But that said...I do like Gollum. It’s different, yeah, but I think his design works pretty well. After all, according to Tolkien, we’re not really supposed to know what Gollum is. And I think it works pretty goddamn well!

Music and Editing: 7/10

Glenn Yarbrough. I love ya. I SWEAR, I do actually like you and your main contribution to this movie, The Greatest Adventure. But if I have to hear that song ONE MORE GODDAMN TIME in this movie, I swear...because they chop up the song and use it in EVERY AVAILABLE INSTANCE with Bilbo. And I guess it’s his leitmotif, but they use that song...A LOT. And not instrumentally, I mean with the goddamn lyrics. Just...tone it down a little, OK? But OK, what about the other music, by Maury Laws? I like it! There are some songs in here that are very catchy, and I might actually get “Down, Down, to Goblin Town” on my playlist. Not that it’s all great, but it works for the setting and for the tone of the movie. And what about the editing? Eh. Visual editing is pretty good, bu7t the sound editing is...it’s 1970s animation editing. Hell, even the Rescuers sound editing wasn’t amazing, when I think about it. It’s fine, but it isn’t great most of the time.

Y’know...I think I can gel with a 76% here.

Yeah, I know, it’s low, but that’s because this movie was...good, but OK. I’m not necessarily saying that it was better or worse than the Jackson movies, because I think they compliment each other in some weird ways. I like Thorin as a character more here, but Smaug MUCH more in the Jackson films. While there definitely don’t need to be three Jackson movies...I’ll admit that I think this one is too short, coming in at only an hour and 18 minutes. And I gotta say, I love the fact that it’s animated...but the live-action films also look fantastic, I can never fault them for how they look (except for Dain...ugh). I think they’re similar, but different, at least for me.

But OK, here’s a question: is it just because it’s a property that I really like, and I have my own internal vision of it, which might be influenced by the live-action films? Entirely a possibility. Watch this movie yourself, make your own score! See what you think. Meanwhile, I’m going to try an experiment.

Fantasy movie, same production company, same directors, same animators, also based off of a fantasy book. And, uh...I dunno, a unicorn, maybe?

[strange-things-afo0t]

alright so 3 episodes into Star Trek Discovery and here are my thoughts:

-Tilly is neurodivergent. No changing my mind, whether that’s canon or not. Also, how does she fit all her hair in that bun? I don’t get it. She’s my favorite. She’s gonna be a captain someday.

-speaking of hair, I am LIVING for Michael’s hair. And Michael’s NAME, I love Michael as anything other than a boy’s name.

-not vibing with the Klingon redesign. Something tells me Worf wouldn’t approve.

-I kinda miss the color coded uniforms but they’re still cool

-like can I get those as a Halloween costume?

-wait so the captain dude was also Lucius Malfoy? Like greasy-blonde-Legolas-draco’s-dad Lucius Malfoy? hE LoOkS sO dIfFeReNt WhAt 

#star trek #Star Trek discovery #i lowkey ship Michael and Tilly but I feel like that’s not gonna happen #and yes I know her first name’s Sylvia #I just feel like Tilly suits her
