This doesn't look like a lot of work, but I finished Manwe today, and then fixed them all up for ordering! That means looking up every colour in my colour swatch book and writing them down, which easily took two or three hours, plus almost two for Manwe. =O 

I felt experimental with skintones here! Rather than my go-to for fair skin, I tried around with darker ones for Yavanna, Aule of course, and also Manwe, for a stronger contrast with his blues. 

The dragons and flower pins are delayed until next week, but I realised I hadn't ordered new backing cards yet either. 

A lot of routine setting in here... and not much to tell, but that is good. It seems our hospitals here in Germany are still up to the task, even taking patients from Spain and Italy, even our hospitals in my county, which has been hit especially hard (yeah, thanks a lot, Carnival). 

I've got all my fingers crossed for the US and UK along with Spain, France and Italy, current and future battlegrounds...   :(   Stay safe, everyone. <3

Beautiful. With the president off in Never Never land, the governors are stepping up to keep people safe.

Loving the ombre on Manwë's beard! 🤩 And where I am in Florida, the city and county just issued stay-at-home orders. It went against the state governor's "everything's fine" BS, so measures are finally being taken in my area of central Florida. I'm relieved.

I definitely need to order at least one of these Valar... but which one? They all look great! Glad you're doing ok ; take care!

Gorgeous! I think of Yavanna in particular as having darker skin; since she makes things grow she feels very earthy.

Davina

Oh they look lovely! I'm going to run out of space on your pinboard at this rate XD

Wow these look great! I especially love Varda, Aulë, & Yavanna's designs. Glad that you're alright, too. Things are weird over here with the lockdown (I'm in the UK) but hoping things calm down after the 3 weeks! Keep staying safe everyone x

Yes, absolutely! I never thought about it consciously and didn't do it for the watercolour, but this one just felt right.
