A small update on my Nightmare doll. I've done a lot lol! And I forgot to take pictures of all of it. I just got into the zone and forgot to take them.

So, here I screwed all the tentacles on. One thing you'll notice is that the tentacles placements will all change. I forgot how heavy apoxie is so I had to make adjustments.

I also cut off the poor dolls chest. Nightmare doesn't have them so off they go lol. Even though now it looks like he's wearing a boob tube XD

I wanted to keep the moving parts so the torso can still move around and bow. I don't want this doll to be static.

Head back on and small details done on the face. Yeah, you can see that the tentacles have moved again. I messed up and did a whole tentacle in one go. Silly mistake there. Apoxie is heavy and I had to tie it up so it didn't collapse completely. I forgot a lot of things in 8 years.

The first pass of apoxie done. It looks a mess lol! I'm going to make a trident at some point, so I have a sculpting tool taking its place at the moment. Also, changed the hands. The other ones didn't fit the look I'm going for.

Second and final pass with the apoxie. I've also bulked out the dolls arms, back and sides. It can still move though, I want to be able to pose this doll as much as possible.

I used 4lb of apoxie sculpt on this doll... Nightmare is officially a melee weapon XD.

All I have to do now is sand everything down as smooth as possible, pop on the suckers (that's going to be tedious lol) then the real fun can begin... the paint up...

the Magnus archives is such a mixed bag. because some episodes are like do you feel it? the perpetual loneliness that screams at you through the crowded streets? the fear that lingers every time you sit alone on the busy train? do you understand why you are alone, do you? is it better to be alone and miserably uncertain as to why, or to be isolated knowing what your faults are? do you understand what it is to be lonely? and then the next episode is like, My coworker is having Sex with a Beetle

Trying to find a couple hobbit fics, please help

Ok so, I remember one fic a little better than the other, but Ill list all the details i know about them. Take some details with a grain of salt, my memory is pretty bad, and I have accidentally mixed up details before.

They were both AO3 fics for sure, and im pretty sure both were bagginshield and everybody lives aua.

In the one I remember better, Bilbo was staying in erebor, i think post botfa. He is working with the men and dwarves under thorins orders to help teach farming and get some farms and gardens going to provide food for everyone. In particular I remember him working with bards advisor. Theres some unrest among the dwarves over thinking of gardening as beneath them. And later in the story both Bilbo and Ori are kidnapped by the advisor and a bunch of other guys. Ori was only taken because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time. The advisor is actually pretty nice to them, because he has nothing against them, he just really needs the ransom money. The advisor dude is later killed by the other guys after an escape attempt by ori and bilbo. I think thorin and dwalin find the two in rough shape while trying to rescue them?

The one I remember less of is mostly just one particular scene that stuck with me, where bilbo was in erebor, and explaining to a dwarf/dwarves (probably thorin, some company members, and/or Dis) that hobbits can grow their faunts in gardens, and that they can have kids with other races. And if a hobbit has children with someone from another race, that ability to grow kids doesn't dilute. I think I recall him saying that the dwarves of another mountain actually have a lot of hobbit lineage in them due to their proximity to the shire resulting in hobbit/dwarf relationships. So the dwarves of that mountain can use gardens to keep up a decent population, and they have terraces along the side of the mountain for that purpose. Of course, given that the gardens are for growing children they are well guarded. I don't remember many other story details. The best I've got is that i'm pretty sure it was a bagginshield story, and that bilbo was probably going to have kids in that story. though whether that was via the garden method or the usual way I'm not sure.

I think both fics were multiple chapters long, and i think the first one was complete? please help me find these, I have spent a while searching all the relevant tags i could think of, along with my subscriptions and bookmarks.

reblog and put in the tags a talent you have that is pretty cool but useless.

Sassy self aware narrator is my favorite trope
