Turin Finds Nienor

Galadriel, Lady of light.

(now I think everyone can guess who's next. :-P)

i was wondering which reshade preset you're using? i love the look of your screenshots!

thank you so much! 🥰 i actually haven't posted many pictures using reshade - most of my gameplay pictures are still from my pre-linux archive. but if you're interested in the PSD i use, i can upload it!

i call it my Peppy PSD because it just puts a little extra pep into the existing game!

Download (Dropbox)

examples of before/after shots are below the cut. the beauty of this PSD is that it works on 99% of screenshots!

I find it a little too strong on photos of sims against blank backdrops, but otherwise it tends to work very nicely, day or night.

this is not the most economical psd out there - i have tons of layers at lowered opacities making very slight adjustments. since it's mostly for personal use, it doesn't bother me, but just a heads up.

(if I can figure out how to recreate this 1:1 as a reshade preset, i'd be happy to share that too!)

The memories they held till the end...

Another ver bc i wasnt sure about the shadow and a more HD picture of them :3

Turgon, King of Gondolin- High King of the Noldor (Or, one of them anyways)

Last, but not least, Turgon. This is another I've drawn before, I stuck with the same design, just updated. I really just wanted him to look regal, and it was a fun chance to throw in Glamdring.

As one year wraps up and another begins I wanted to thank everybody. As of scheduling these, I'm at just below five hundred followers. Just from posting Tolkien art, just from doing something that makes me happy. I feel like I've grown a lot as an artist in the last year. One of the Lord of the Rings actors has my art on his phone! I still can't believe that. I never could have even imagined that when I first watched Lord of the Rings as a child. For all of its ups and downs, I think we really do have a great fandom. Full of wonderful and creative people. The next year is going to be hard, I won't pretend it won't be. The next four years is going to be hard. But the connections and friendships we forge over the internet and across the world is a light in dark places. The act of creation is a light in dark places. Kindness is a light in dark places. I can't think of anything more true to the spirit of Tolkien's work than resilience and hope in the face of overwhelming despair. Stay alive, and stay safe. You're a light in dark places, when all other lights have gone out.

if bagginshield is canon I win. if bagginshield is not canon then Thorin "had no wife" Oakenshield and Bilbo "confirmed bachelor" Baggins are aroace icons and I still win.

I used to think I can't have ADHD because I wasn't hyperactive.

Not everyone can allow themselves to act on their hyperactivity, so we find ways to redirect or hide the understimulation.
