I’m not sure how hard things are to make out, but I decided to try something new.

I enjoy making steampunk stuff, and I love anything Tolkien. So, I decided to do a steampunk design of the Two Trees, Telperion and Laurelin.

This is mostly me getting back into making stuff like this, so it may not be the best. But I do like it.

I’m debating adding a splash of color. (But I need to see what beads I have that would work. I would love to do a little sun and moon. Or a flower and fruit. But, well…I’ll have to see. lol)

WELL GUESS WHO FINALLY GOT AROUND TO FINISHING THIS

I actually worked on it here and there the past month haha, but tonight they were finally done :)

I’m quite happy with how they turned out! I would’ve liked to add more embroidery details and jewellery and stuff but uh, my brain can barely handle this so i better not get ahead of myself….

Now the whole spread of all the cousins is complete! I don’t know when or if I will get around to drawing the previous and later generations, but we shall see.

Taking a break from the pride flowers. I enjoy doing them, but this week has been bad for chronic pain and such, and it was pointed out to me that I was doing it a bit compulsively.

So, instead, I’ve been doing a bit of fanfic plotting. I have a lot of different ideas for Silmarillion stuff (and I do want to see if I can manage some of the Russingon Week prompts, even if they’re late).

I just need to work on getting some of the ideas planned out. (Maybe not every little detail, but the major ones.)

With some of my ideas, though, I am having to put together a bit of context/explanation, because I’m using some of the stuff that was published outside the Silmarillion. (In the Histories of Middle-Earth series or even some of what was compiled and analyzed in the Parma Eldalamberon.)

But, I’ve taken off work tomorrow (originally was going to go and do some things, but those plans were cancelled), so maybe I’ll have some time to plan stuff out or maybe even write.

Having a rough day so now flowers today. Instead, I’m writing some very self-indulgent fic stuff with Feanor and Fingolfin while working out details for some longer fics that I’ve had ideas for.

(Lots of pain today. And burnout. And just lack of sleep all adding up.)

Demisexual flag for a friend today. :)

Playing some Fast Food Simulator with friends now, while I write. (Working on a couple different Silmarillion fics.)

[alanastarveil]

I did actually finish this yesterday. It was just such a crazy day that I forgot to post it! Lol

I chose the agender flag for yesterday.

[alanastarveil]

It was an insane day at work today. But I still managed to get this done. Today’s flag is the genderfluid flag.

Going to see if I have energy to get some writing in. Got some good ideas for Silmarillion fanfics, but I need to get them worked out and started. Lol

Day 12 is the lesbian flag.

Still going strong on these and loving how they’re turning out. Once the month is over, I’ll probably go back to trying to do other stuff.

I do have some other things I’ve drawn to post, but that’ll be later. (I’ve been working a lot on the Silmarillion Heraldry, but in a specific design. I’ll post those, hopefully, this weekend. I’m also turning them into stickers!)

[alanastarveil]

Today is a flag that a lot of people probably don’t know. A friend asked me to do this one for him, so I did. It’s the Achilean Flag (a men loving men flag, but not the plain or original one.) below is a link if you want to read more.

Did the AroAce flag for tonight. I’m trying to make sure I get some flags in here that I don’t see represented as often. I have several friends who are AroAce, so I wanted to make sure it was included.

[alanastarveil]

Day 9 is the asexual flag. Almost was tempted to skip, but I really want to try to do them every day. I’m just super tired from work.

Just have to decide now if I feel up to some writing, too, before bed. Got an eye doctor appointment tomorrow, then work. So, tomorrow is going to be more exhausting.

[alanastarveil]

Got my pride flag Elpis Flower done early today. (I decided to do it earlier just so I don’t have to worry about it later.) Today’s is the Pansexual flag.

I’ve officially gotten through a week of these and kept going onto day 8. While I could get ahead, it would defeat the purpose, which is to make myself at least color one of these a day. It’s not drawing something new every day, but it’s something.

I’m also trying to work on some crafts and some writing, so those may end up being posted here as well. (Unless it’s my NSFW writing. That’s a different account.)

Let me know what you think. Let me know if you’d like to see a specific flag, or even another version of any of those I’ve done. Let me know if you’re interested in seeing anything about my crafts or writing. :)

I promise I’m friendly and don’t bite.

[alanastarveil]

Got the non-binary flag for today. I’ve managed a full week. I know I have a while longer to go, but I haven’t given up yet. With chronic pain and exhaustion, sometimes it is hard to make myself keep it up. But I’m going to try.

[alanastarveil]

Almost a week in, and I’m still going strong. Lol!

Day 6 is the Transgender flag

[alanastarveil]

So, Day 5 is actually going back to the rainbow flag. A friend wanted to see it, but in pastels. So that’s what I did for today.

[alanastarveil]

Day 4 is the bigender flag, per a friend’s request. I’m kind of impressed I’ve managed to keep going without missing a day. (Yes, I know it’s only 4 days, but sometimes my brain just says no.)

[alanastarveil]

Day 3 of Pride Flag Elpis Flowers. Doing the polygender flag today, because it’s near and dear to me (and how I identify).
