FANART for "With Both Hands Thou Shalt Give It" (!!!!)

[vulgarweed]

This is one of the coolest fandom gifts I've ever received: Sunhawk loved that story so much she commissioned an artist, elfrightsactivist, to draw a scene from it, and the result is AMAZING!

Under the cut because it's big and spoilery (though, honestly, it's a Tolkien crossover fic, so I don't see how the possibility of [THING THAT HAPPENS] is really a surprise to anyone. It is fairly SFW (some strategically covered nudity), unlike the story itself (drawing the actual sex scene from this story would be . . . a specialized task I wouldn't want to impose on anyone. :D)








Of course it works best as an illustration for the story, so I've added it here.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

I already said on tumblr, but I adore this. It's perfect! oooh, and even bigger here!

Yeah, it's so cool. I love the way you can just see a couple of Ungoliant's legs draped over that rock. :D

What a beautiful thing! The art itself and the idea that your story touched someone so much and went and prompted more beauty. Kudos all around.

When it comes to "touching someone so much" I wouldn't necessarily have expected that story to be the one. But I'm so glad my weirdest children get loved!

I LOVE the look on his face. Actually, both of their expressions are the best. What a fantastic gift!

Aren't the expressions great? Eagles generally have resting bitchface anyway, but Thorondor looks 2000% DONE.

YESSS!!!! That's fabulous!!! OMG the look on his face! *dies* A brilliant tribute to a brilliant fic!

It's so expressive with just a few simple lines - not a one out of place. So early in the history of Arda, and the Giant Eagles are already so DONE with everyone's shit. :D Sérelókë is every inch the surly brat he can be too. And Ungoliant's legs draped over the rock! We just can't see the ones that are holding post-coital cigarettes, but I know they're there. :D
