His Lord’s voice was deep, like a glance into the ocean, and Octar felt shivers run down his spine. - https://thesilmarilchick.wordpress.com/2025/01/17/the-war-of-the-dead-chapter-19-the-warlord/ #thehobbit #lordoftherings #fanart #fanfiction

Bard the bowman.
Bard the bowman stands atop a burning tower and readies his bow to shoot the wyrm.
Another Mithril Miniatures display piece.
The tower is scratchbuilt from card with some added miscasts of my own, plus some cotton wool smoke.
And inside is a LED tea light "candle" that gives the fire some flicker.

Bell Gamgee sat at her daughter’s bed-side unwilling to move even to eat, this had led some to believe that the mother of six had caught the sickness as well… but no, that was just how Bell was. - https://thesilmarilchick.wordpress.com/2025/01/10/the-war-of-the-dead-chapter-17-the-hunt-of-the-ganymen/ #fanart #fanartwork #fanfiction #lordoftherings #thehobbit
Toasting the Professor
As in years past, January 3rd is a special evening. Don and I joined other J.R.R. Tolkien fans from around the world in raising a glass to toast the birthday of this much loved author, J.R.R. Tolkien, at precisely 21:00 (9:00pm) local time. I have chosen a special combination of cranberry juice and soda for the occasion.
The toast is simply “The Professor”.
The Professor
J.R.R. Tolkien, author of the classical mythological world of The Hobbit, The Lord of The Rings, and The Silmarillion, created a collection of legends set in a fictional universe. He once said that “War deepened and sobered my imagination and stimulated my love of fantasy.” The months in the trenches of WWI made a lasting impression, which is reflected within his writings.

J.R.R. Tolkien, author of the classical mythological world of The Hobbit, The Lord of The Rings, and The Silmarillion, created a collection of legends set in a fictional universe. He once said that “War deepened and sobered my imagination and stimulated my love of fantasy.” The months in the trenches of WWI made a lasting impression, which is reflected within his writings. Even so, J.R.R. Tolkien did not yield to despondency. His response was to embrace life as a remarkable adventure to be experienced abundantly and completely.
In today’s tumultuous world, Tolkien’s narratives offer an escape to fantastical realms where courage and hope prevail. His stories remind us of the strength found in friendship and the potential for personal growth. His writing reflects deep philosophical and moral questions, encouraging us to contemplate our values, choices, and the nature of power and its consequences.
“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

Ruins of Dol Guldur
(1/2)
Beorn, the skin-changer. As seen in The Hobbit.
Diorama created with the #MithrilMiniatures Beorn figure, and the @FenrisGames Bjornhilda Bearacus figure.
To show both forms of Beorn I positioned the figures back to back, so Beorn transforms if you rotate the diorama.
Kevin Guertin started reading The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
Why is it that every Christmas I am suddenly in the mood to read a classic #book? I've had this deluxe illustrated edition of #TheHobbit for a while. I decided to take it off the shelf and out of its slipcase for the first time. I first read this in the early 2000s and haven't read it since. A re-read is due!
To say Hamfast shook as he peeled himself up from that bedroom floor, was like saying a leaf trembled in the wind. - https://thesilmarilchick.wordpress.com/2024/12/20/the-war-of-the-dead-chapter-11-the-halffoot-case/ #fanfiction #fanart #fandom #lordoftherings #thehobbit #tolkien

As the Ganyman spoke the old master’s chest shook in an un-rhythmic fashion, it was as if something was forcing the old chest to move up and down against its will. - https://thesilmarilchick.wordpress.com/2024/12/13/the-war-of-the-dead-chapter-9-nightmares-in-the-dark/ #mondayblogs #mondaymood #fanfiction #fanart #lordoftherings #thehobbit
For as long as Hamfast could remember he had been… well…. I suppose the only way to describe it is to give it its proper title…he had been a Ganyman. - https://thesilmarilchick.wordpress.com/2024/12/13/the-war-of-the-dead-chapter-9-nightmares-in-the-dark/ #tolkien #fanart #fanfiction #lordoftherings #thehobbit
The Fire’s come for you again, just like it always does in these dreams, only sometimes it doesn’t look like fire, looks like water or smoke or air. #tolkien #fanart #fanfiction #lordoftherings #thehobbit #FridayFeeling
