this one nearly pissed me off. i've been watching the LOTR movies (and reading the books...and playing the videogames) a hell of a lot lately, and for some odd reason, they're keeping me smiling. some of the scenes in the movies really cause me to give off a huge grin or cry happily at the end of ROTK. i really dunno what it is, but they're keeping me smiling, that's all i can say.

i've had a few of my own LOTR characters in the past, but i've grown past them and never really liked how they turned out, because they just didn't seem to fit with my imagination at the time. so i created a new one, and i think she's better than the others. this would be Angelica Breann, nicknamed Aspen, a girl from the modern world under an abusive household until she was thrown into a catatonic stage one night, and plopped into Middle Earth (which is how she got the more fantasy-like clothing in the picture).

it's a long story, one that i don't want to explain at the moment 'cause i'm really exhausted. i've read a lot of Tenthwalker fanfictions, and a lot of them kinda suck, but i don't care. i read 'em anyway because they give me a distraction when i really need one.

as for the picture, i tried my best to make it look like she had stray hairs flying in all directions, since her hair is supposed to be in a loose ponytail and slightly ruffled hair. she is abused at home, in my story, after all, so i would think her hair is rarely cared for except for being washed. i tried giving her that 'beaten innocent' type of look, but i think i only succeeded in making her look more smug than i'd intended to. grah.

also, her pose nearly made me rip my hair out. i was trying to give her a walking pose, but it would not work. i'm having difficulty drawing legs lately, so i had to use a photo reference. X_x;

if you don't like Tenthwalker/LOTR OCs, then go bite a brick. i don't give a shit.

sorry 'bout the fugly watermark.
