I don't think there's that many to choose from, you know. And that's not entirely accurate, but I'll leave it for now.
Oh my dear, but there are many! Just not so many as those who know of them outside of the underground. It takes them a few years to pupate of course, then you have a wonderful scandel of butterflies upon society...

What the heck, I'll give it a go. :)

Guess who?

Morsul the Dark 09-01-2005 09:57 AM

That is just awesome

Glirdan 09-01-2005 10:03 AM

Awsome Estel. Really good.

THE Ka 09-01-2005 11:12 AM

Very clever Estel...

the guy who be short 09-01-2005 01:34 PM

Tasty too. I see we have another wonderfully deviant mind with artistic talent. :)

The Only Real Estel 09-01-2005 02:35 PM

Personally I think it looks more like a chocolate chip wafer than anything...oh well, I only had fifteen minutes & that's not enough time to change anything.

At any rate I decided to add the recipe so everyone could tell that it was, in fact, supposed to be a cookie. :p

Lhunardawen 09-01-2005 10:59 PM

Hey, tgwbs, how come we never have stuff like those while learning Quenya? :p

I absolutely love Fea's werewolf-in-a-kilt; it makes me feel so angry all over again! It lacks the eyeliner, though.

(Oh boy, I won't imagine Eomer in any other way ever again... :D )

Well, it's kinda hard to illustrate a language, but feel free to do so if you wish; it's your learning experience.

You know, Lhuna, you've just opened up so many possibilities for my next pic! :D (Yes, I will be doing more on PAINT, mwahahaha, fear the terrible quality...)

Encaitare 09-02-2005 10:59 AM

Great pictures, everyone! I love it!

Encaitare, I'm currently working on a portrait of yourself and was wondering what you would like more: Those wonderfully poofy jester pants in black and green, or just a skirt ( you chose the colour). I'm in a state of indecision, and I need help.



~ Aesthete

Encaitare 09-02-2005 06:07 PM

How about a skirt with black & green jester-like stockings?

THE Ka 09-02-2005 06:11 PM

Oh phew! Thanks, for a second I thought I would have had to start over with the clothing... Good choice.

The Only Real Estel 09-03-2005 10:15 AM

Two more quick ones.

The Thread Paramedic

Some dude from the Rohirrim

Kath 09-03-2005 10:22 AM

TORE I love the Thread Paramedic sketch, funny as well as good!

Glirdan 09-03-2005 10:27 AM

Awsome pictures TORE! I especially enjoyed "The Thread Paramedic" one.

Encaitare 09-03-2005 10:53 AM

Excellent, Estel! :D

The Only Real Estel 09-03-2005 12:18 PM

Thanks guys. :)

I have to say the tail on Eomer's helmet doesn't look nearly as wolfish as it's supposed to. :o

Glirdan 09-03-2005 12:23 PM

No problem TORE!! And the tail on Eomer's hemet looks fine.

Eomer of the Rohirrim 09-03-2005 12:48 PM

How flattering!

I love these Barrowdowns/specific thread in-jokes. Very entertaining, folks! :)

No, I meant Estel's previous pic. How come we never have some of that? You promised, remember? *pouts*

Speaking of Estel's pics, did you have a fight with Eowyn ( ;) ) again, huh, Eomer? That's a nasty black eye you have there. :p

Loving them, Estel. Very brilliant.

Of course that was made in 'mirth' (note the :p), but I guess I should say for those who haven't been paying attention to the new photo page that the "black eye" is homage to the eyeliner that Eomer has around his left eye in his real picture. edit: I should note that Lhuna suggested it to Eomer (sort've) so she also gets credit for inspiring me. ;)

...which was requested (of sorts) by yours truly. ;)

Eomer of the Rohirrim 09-05-2005 12:44 PM

Yea, I only really did it because my little sister wanted to see it. It has become a Mask of Inscrutability.

I'd love to get in on this drawing lark but my computer facilities will not allow me. :(

Oddwen 09-06-2005 08:04 AM

Here be a few pics I drew up last night:

One of Maeggaladiel, you may recognize this from the Gashlycrumb Downers thread.

One of the Mighty and Wighty Wight, and a few unsuspecting victims.

One of the phantom. I'm not too pleased with the way SpM turned out, and boy I hate drawing feet. But I like the rest of it.

Another of the phantom. (Aw, he's so fun to draw.) I don't know who the other two people are.

Enjoy. :D

The Only Real Estel 09-06-2005 08:10 AM

Those are great Oddwen! I think I like the 'Why the Phantom can't get a break" one best. :D

dancing spawn of ungoliant 09-06-2005 11:50 AM

Oddwen, those are wonderful! Is TGWBS holding a tree-frog? :eek:

Wow! I didn't notice that before! :D Excellent. Glad to see that people continue to associate me with tree frogs. :D That shall be my legacy to the Downs... well, maybe.

I also liked how you captured my midgetness so perfectly, Oddwen, though I'm not sure about tp being a giant.

The B-W one? Brill. :D

Glirdan 09-06-2005 03:07 PM

Awsome pics Oddwen! :D But y is tp big??? I feel really short when I see that. :(

The Only Real Estel 09-06-2005 08:38 PM

Because he forged a new Ring. He is now the newest Dark Lord & it wouldn't be the same if he was the same height as before. :p

Lhunardawen 09-07-2005 12:51 AM

But I am the Keeper of the Last Homemade Lens, Oddwen. Maeg can't have them!

*throws tantrums*

Oddwen 09-07-2005 11:17 AM

*throws them back*
 
She was under the influence of its power, Lhuna, that's why she's all Gollumesque - she STOLE it, murdered you, and hid your body.

The Truth is a scary thing, isn't it?

Here I've got one of Estel. I was going to have him read the Real Estate section, but it didn't work out that way. (Yes, he's eating what you think he's eating.)

I love his elbow. I could almost lick it.

The Only Real Estel 09-07-2005 11:29 AM

Love the drawing, Oddy.

I have a feeling that whole peach cobbler thing isn't going to go away very soon...:D

Feanor of the Peredhil 09-07-2005 04:14 PM

Eomer's sig has grown on me. This isn't the cleanest bit of work I've ever done, but I'm working with new software, so hopefully it can be forgiven.

Glirdan 09-07-2005 04:23 PM

Awsome pics Fea and Oddy! Even on a computer I have no talent in drawing or creating things. I'm so envious of all of you.

The Only Real Estel 09-07-2005 05:14 PM

A quick sketch of somebody based loosely on his or her old avatar...

Just because this made me laugh so hard, I take it back.

Fea, I'm having images of wilwa in that new drawing. I wonder why? ;)

the guy who be short 09-08-2005 11:06 AM

SpM's prize
 
Here you go. :) Told you it'd come eventually.

Feanor of the Peredhil 09-08-2005 11:10 AM

TGWBS, I really love the Wilwa one. I'm just waiting to see what Encai comes up with for me. That was, of course, how she bribed me to narrate a TSOYAYKI death. :D

Eomer of the Rohirrim 09-08-2005 12:50 PM

I love the picture Fea. If you're interested, the sig is taken from a song called Bucket of Butterflies by Modey Lemon. The lyrics also include references to jumping beans, psychics, larvae, and the Queen of the Elves. Could make a really interesting picture out of that stramash. :D

TORE, please enlighten me on that last pic. I like it, but am still clueless.
