Description Oh wow, it's late. ^^;

I just had to draw something for Fire and Hemlock. The cello! Tom Lynn!

I got the idea for the green orb thing from the British cover of F&H... the picture was looking kind of strange all by itself, so I decided to play around with Photoshop to see if I could make a convincing orb thing. The cello took the longest in this pic, simply because I can't seem to get string instrument shapes correct without having to look up multiple photos to base them off of. I had lots of fun figuring out how to get the wood texture though. Red finish, auugh. ^_^ Somehow the position works. Erm. The text is from the excerpts of Tam Lin and Thomas The Rhymer poems in the book. I think I may need sleep. XP

That is all.

Awesome! I just finished the book earlier today and I just had to check out fan art. For some reason, I always imagined Tom as an old man, haha. But yes, I can see him as this guy. XD

Wow i love it, that could really fit on the british cover- which is the version i have- unsuprisingly because i am britishand live in britian.

So few people draw or even write anything to do with Diana Wynne Jones and when they do it's Howl's Moving Castle- and when it's HMC its the film (otherwise i'd be fine with it, i love HMC-the book) I'm glad someone took notice of Fire and Hemlock anyway- i'm in the middle of it at the moment but i justc an't stop in fact i'm going away now to read some more.

BEAUTIFUL omg!! <33

Haha, funny how Nezumi is the one who commented right before me. XD We recently found each other as F&H fans. We're such a rare breed!

This is a wonderful picture! He looks perfect, the way he's folded around the cello. <3

Eeeee! It's Tom! Lovely job on the cello, and I love how the piece feels nice and textured. The only small issue I would point out is that his left arm (the one holding the bow) seems somewhat backwards where the elbow is bent. Regardless, I love it

"The cello! Tom Lynn!"
I agree with your enthusiasm there!
I loved "Fire and Hemlock"... I love anything that has to do with Tam Lin or Thomas the Rhymer, actually.
He looks sort of like my friend Andrew.. which is odd, because there's been a running joke among my friends debating whether Andrew is/isn't Tam Lin

Preeetty cello...

*glomps ki-chan*

I looooove this picture! The chello turned out so well! I don't think I could draw a cello without looking at pictures of one, heh. ^_^

Cya!

This is lovely ki-chan!!!! The green orb has great dimension to it, and I can see that the cello must have taken a lot of work!! I also love the texture the the text creates!!! ^__^

YOU DREW TOM LYNN! omg kekeke!! *falls over* Ki-chan is my herooo~~ I knew you'd like him. Muahahah. Him and his playing cello and sort of subtle resistance and desperation, and the way everything is implied, never spoken outright, and the way your perception of him changes so much, but slowly, as Polly's does, and and and... *^__^* The hands are a bit funny, maybe, but that's okay. I love the way you used the words! And the orb thing is a nifty idea, too. DWJissocool. I love his expression, it fits him so well. *sigh* The cello woodgrain pattern looks just right. Mm, pretty string instruments. ^.^ I like the clothes you gave him, too. They fit. *nodnod* I'm still so happy you actually drew him! Lalala~ Is it just me, or did he remind you a tad of Lupin, too?

OMG!!!! *huggles Ki-chan* You are my hero. He looks /wonderful/. Better than how I imagine him. *siiiiigh* The red finish on the cello came out really nice! He looks really gentle, kinda sad, and his expression is almost like he's asking for help ... you don't have to if you don't want to, but it would be nice. =^_^=;; *babbles* The orb came out looking really good too. The coloring around the fingertips is a bit blotchy, but very small detail. The words make it look so good!! AUGH! I LOVE YOU!
