You know how I love offbeat properties and I found this seller's For-Sale-By-Owner ad on Zillow. He started building the home in 1969, in Eureka, California, and it's been under construction for 43 years! It's a French ornamented cathedral Gothic, with all custom ornaments, molds and scaffolding techniques. This mansion is based on Newport, Rhode Island style and spirit from the 19th Century.
Tumblr media
This is what it's supposed to look like - The Vision.

And, in 43 yrs., this is what he's done so far. He's asking $4.5M. Now, he has been living in it, so you can live in the finished part. The house is being sold furnished, and what furnishings! Read what he wrote about them below:
Tumblr media
"Also for sale here are 1500 sq. ft of the ultimate grade palatial antique Italian marquetry, veneer and solid wood furniture, ranging from console tables and mirrors; 10 different sizes of round antique tables, up to a 12' x 6' museum-piece dining table, various rare cabinets, marquetry, upholstered chairs, couches, china and other cabinets, solid gold (plated) grandfather clock and two huge antique chandeliers, all worth over $300k on the market now and arguably TWICE that!"
Tumblr media
This outer door is amazing.
Tumblr media
Here's a gargoyle and other ornamentation that still has to go on the house.
Tumblr media
But, look at this - it says the exterior designs are ready for installation "when the lawsuit is over." So, the property is involved in a lawsuit, too? (Check the blog - I found the lawsuit papers and posted it.)
Tumblr media
There's so much stuff here.
Tumblr media
This room is done. It must be a ballroom. I don't know what to make of all this. This looks like the Romanoff's place.
Tumblr media
This must be a music room. There's a harpsicord and a harp in here.
Tumblr media
Look at these walls. He says the walls are hand done- are these the actual walls?
Tumblr media
The walls are hand painted according to the description.
Tumblr media
Here's a mantel waiting to be installed.
Tumblr media
This is going to be the kitchen.
Tumblr media
The gold double sink.
Tumblr media
I don't know if this is an old picture of the original inspiration for this home, but it's definitely a representation of the home itself.
Tumblr media
This is an amazing fireplace.
Tumblr media
Another beautiful fireplace.
Tumblr media
He's using the bedroom, but it's not finished.
Tumblr media
I'm disappointed in this bathroom. Maybe it's just temporary?
Tumblr media
He has a lot of photos of the furniture and these are really primo antiques. So, this would be one of the dining rooms.
Tumblr media
This looks like a brand new bedroom set. Looks like a furniture store that used to be near me called Roma Furniture.
Tumblr media
The chandelier in the ballroom that he says is included in the sale.
Tumblr media
One of the sitting rooms.
Tumblr media
Nice inlaid table.
Tumblr media
There's a lot of furniture. If you want to see it all, click on the link b/c he's posted 100 photos. But, I'm very confused.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The property measures 6 acres and there are "massive fall color and rose gardens, 20,000 plantings, plus 10,000 daffodil, iris, lily, etc. Bulbs are spread over 6 acres, still there mostly, alive and colorful. Plus, hundreds of valuable landscaping sculptures are included."

Sometimes, being lost is not knowing how to get from where we are to where we wanna be, where we need to be. A few choice words can sometimes be the life raft that gets you home. To be seen. To be found. Isn’t that what we’re all searching for?

Hiiihi hello is there an specific thing you like doing in your drawings? Like coloring, lineart, sketch, the reference, anything you want 💐💐
OH SKETCHES FOR SURE!!!! Sketching is so so relaxing to me. Its just me blotting down the image in my head as quickly as possible and it makes me so happy! The lining can be relaxing sometimes but oooo coloring my detested. I love SEEING it finished, but coloring takes oh so long. I fuss so much with the colors to make them look nice. It takes ages. Sketching, however, is nice and easy for me! Super fun! Here! Take some sketches of Wally I did recently!!!
Tumblr media
Oh and here, have a WIP for a piece I'm still working on!!! On the lining phase, pray this doesn't take a million years to finish. But Wally....Wally catching frogs....

Calling huge Silmarillion nerds:
I'm homebrewing a First Age Beleriand D&D campaign and personally I'll die if Hobbits aren't involved in some capacity. Problem is, there's basically NO lore I can find regarding what Hobbits were doing during the First Age, beyond the little scraps of cultural information about the Fallohides, Harfoots and Stoors you get on Tolkien Gateway
Are there any resources out there for information on First Age hobbit society/culture, or is this something I should write up from scratch?
