All the latest birthdays...

... well, all those that LJ cared to notify me about.
Urgh, with so many, my lack of cool photoshoppy skills becomes even more apparent. Oh well!
Under cuts this time for the sake of everyone's f-list.




Ye Olde Japan for the American Japanophile. :)




Lace and fractals and pseudo-Gothic script, oh my!




Vintage postcard from Gondolin. Actually drawn in September, how fitting!




Thranduil's new glamrock look - how could I resist?

SNEERRRKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK he's got the David Bowie pose going on and everything! I hadn't seen Thranduil yet, this is just... hilarious.

I KNOW RIGHT?
Thing is, in my mind Thranduil has kind of been looking like the Goblin King from Labyrinth for years. Turns out I was right! XD

Poor Thranduil. He just doesn't get a break in his movie adaptations.

These are great birthday graphics!

Is it a guilty pleasure to think he's sexy? I really like the look ... *ducks and runs to hide from all the JRRT-experts*

XD I don't think it is! He doesn't look too bad - face-wise. Not my type, but that doesn't make him ugly. I just find his glittersuit disturbing, wonder whether he stole that crown from Oberon, and laugh at the way he holds that sword. Other than that, he's fine!

Haha, I'd definitely rather be Glamrock!Thranduil than GnarlyGnome!Thranduil!

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanke :D

Außerdem: WARUM DIE AUGENBRAUEN?! Mal ernsthaft, die hätten sie doch echt etwas bändigen können, oder? Die Dinger springen einen ja an ...

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

Ich muss gestehen, dass ich da bisher nicht mal drauf geachtet habe - ja, dick und dunkel, aber sonst... Jetzt sehe ich, dass sie die oben sogar nur gebleicht haben, die offenbar also NOCH breiter sind. Das ist ja echt etwas krass.
Andererseits kommt man dann ja vielleicht im LARP mal von der spinnerten Idee ab, dass Elfenspieler sich zwingend Spock-Augenbrauen (also dünn und schräg) zurechtzupfen müssen. Schräg sind sie zwar auch bei Thranduil... aber eindeutig nicht schmal! XD

[elfy.livejournal.com]

Mjaaa, aber blonde Haare und dann so schwarze Augenbrauen? Eh ...

[oloriel.livejournal.com]

Das ist aber immerhin stimmig - war bei Legolas genauso, und der ist schließlich Thranduils Sohn. :P

Thank you so much! I didn't even know this existed in colour. :) Thank you. ♥

I didn't even know this existed at all, I have to admit, until I discovered it in some Korean pic collection. You're welcome! ♥
