Luthien Tinuviel in the halls of Menegroth
"As Beren looked into her eyes
Within the shadows of her hair
The trembling starlight of the skies
He saw there mirrored shimmering.
Tinuviel the elven-fair,
Immortal maiden elven-wise,
About him cast her shadowy hair
And arms like silver glimmering"

Portrait study of Olenna Tyrell one of my favorite characters from A Song of Ice and Fire, as portrayed by Diana Rigg in the HBO series
antarctic exploration is so funny because you read about the endurance expedition and it’s a zany adventure with a lovable stowaway and trials and tribulations that show the indomitable nature of the human spirit without a single man lost and it ends in a thematically resonant and meaningful way with a fitting and beautiful conclusion and then you get to the belgica and the crew are running away constantly, they frame the cook for his own beatdown and get him fired, the beloved moral-boosting chipper ships boy literally falls off of the boat and drowns before they even GET to antarctica, the commandant and the captain are deliberately freezing the ship in ice to protect their beautiful belgian honor, they’re constantly falling into crevasses, and the ships pet penguin dies in what i cannot stress enough is the most narratively ominous and portentous circumstance on the morning of their imprisonment in the ice. the doctor was literally imprisoned for fraud.
Because everyone keeps asking about it.
These Bastards are available as prints, cards and postcards over on RedBubble.
I’ve had a go at making stickers out of these and it’s bloody horrendous. So I hope you all can suffice with prints for now.
Please also have a look over on my INPRNT store for more artwork x

Admiral Pavel Chichagov might be one of my favorite failure of a man ever. It's hilarious. Poor guy was a fish out of water. Literally.
Barclay de Tolly and Bagration in Russian military camp circa 1812
As a mainly sapphic woman the only thing that would make me worse about the Beatles is of they were girls.
Can’t get enough of the girlies (Girl George is doing things to me)
Took a break from england to listen to the new History of Byzantium and I'm just immensely charmed by the anecdote about how the Niceans very carefully brought Mongol ambassadors to court via the route that required going through as many mountain passes as possible to try and minimize how invadable-by-horse-archers they seemed.
