Fanart: John as a LotR elf

[anna_luna]

More art from the the Drawing Meme.

This one is for neth_dugan, who wanted "John actually IS an elf. For real. Not mini-elf like the ones who make cookies. But LotR type graceful elves (except, y'know, this is JOHN still)".





Medium: Markers on paper.

I went for fierce!elf!John instead of dorky!elf!John, I hope you like it!

Eeeeeee!

The patterns on his clothing are great, they're elvish and like vines but not too much with not enough room. Is that ancient on his armband? I can't quite read it though but nice touch, took me a few to catch it.

But yeah, love it like all your stuff *bounces*


ETA: I think the first word is trust? No idea about the last two letters though.

:) I just knew you'd catch the ancient reference, it's supposed to say "trust your team" but it goes around his arm and didn't fit and I mangled the letters while inking.

I am glad you like the vines, John is an elf, but as you said, he's still *John*. I tried to play a little with that.

Thank you very much, it was a lovely prompt.

I just keep imagining the universe where John is Legolas and Rodney is a reluctant!Aragorn and Ronon and Teyla are hobbits...

Okay, now if I had another prompt I'd go and use that because THAT is an image. The wacky team that the other Elves shun cause not enough to work with a human (who, fair enough, is part elf and future King) but HOBBITS?!?!

Hmmmm, should try and maybe do something 'bout that, I can't draw well but I can kind of write.

And hey, I'm always a fan of using the ancient alphabet, and that's such a John thing to have wrapped around him. His team is his family and so on.
