Marshmallow Queen

Like when Gandalf spent literal PAGES trying to figure out why the vibes were off in Moria and Legolas chimes in with just "it's a balrog :) that shit's evil :) we're so fucked :)" like what do you MEAN you knew already and just didn't tell him??

Or at the beginning of Two Towers when Aragorn thinks there's something nearby so he puts his ear to the ground to listen, and then like 10 minutes later is like "hmmm i hear horses" and Legolas is just like "mm yep. there are 105 blond bitches with spears" like you just let your friend put his face in the dirt and you can SEE them??

gandalf is scratching his head in moria, and legolas is thinking "oh man, the wizard noticed something off *besides* the obvious balrog that we all are aware of??"

(Bonus: perhaps one a wizard might keep as a pet?)

Thanks for all the nice pictures of creatures! :D

I was so delighted to get to draw Anduin, his outfit and hair were just so much fun to do! And even more so was to make this a part of a matching pair with Wrathion! Thank you so much for giving me the chance to draw them both!
