Adventures in speedpainting: The Grey Havens
@feanope, this is for you! thank you for the prompt, i had a lot fun painting these. I’ll do Eregion too, soon-ish!
– the Grey havens are one of the oldest elvish settlements in Eriador, with many little towns and hamlets tucked away in the many bays around the Gulf of Lune. The central port is the most easily accessed, as it is built on the mouth of the river Lune, and all westward roads run to it.
– there are always more elves living here than anyone realises.
– white sails are only used for ships that are sailing West to Valinor. The sails of the ships and boats used in daily life are brightly coloured or patterned, each one unique.
– there is a LOT of pohutakawa growing around the Havens. The red flowers at the height of summer turn the coastline red.
– the Grey Havens get their name from the weather, it is nearly always overcast or raining. Fine days are a rarity, and always welcomed.
The positive feedback my last work is getting is killing me (softly, in a good way) and so I decided that before I die I want to draw these boys making love and use sick colours for that. Yes.
The bounty from todays art stream. I had 5 sketches that I did two days ago, and while I was planning on picking one of them to draw on stream I decided it would be more exciting to start from scratch. After all going from nothing to something is more watchable than me literally painting one spot for an hour.
So this is from the highchool au again, I’m not gonna tell you exactly what’s happening in the picture, you can take an educated guess (padumtish ah hah hah) and tbh I don’t really know much myself. I just draw a picture and show it to @akaiikowrites and then we squeal and explode for fifteen minutes together like a couple of school girls smoking pot in a campus lavatory and then Kaii makes magic happen.
This is a partnership where ideas are the currency, inspiration a by-product and some fucking good sheith a happy accident. Bless
