Most of your work is both hilarious and beautiful, thanks for making it! I've reblogged a lot of your stuff from your tumblr account. (I am indigojester there too). I love elves making themselves ridiculous! Legolas falling face first into the snow, naked dwarves chasing each other in front of flabbergusted and disgusted elves... Hairy dwarven butts on display... He he he...
I have started a Thranduil pinterest board, and I truly STRUGGLE to source every single artist whose art I pin there, because I respect the people who make the art. It's a bloody nightmare. People repost without sources and quote tumblr or twitter as their source. Not the exact post, no no no. The ENTIRE site. *facepalm* Because you know, they are both very small sites and the artist/post is easy to locate. And even those who give you the right page, they don't bother to check if it is the actual source, so you go to that page and the sourse of that page is a Russian forum. Now, people in Russian forums refuse to source on PAIN of DEATH or something. D: Which is so very irritating, because then I have to use google image search to try and locate the artist/ source. And then I end up in Chinese or Korean forums which is the other face of the same nightmare. D: The site is asking me to log in or register. IN CHINESE. So while I was struggling with all that I came across your art and laughed a real lot. I desperately needed that, so thank you so much! Keep up the good work, you are really funny and I love your work! I also love the style and the colours you use.
(Here is my little monster board in Pinterest; even if I was getting paid for it, I wouldn't have done a better job locating artists...) www.pinterest.com/elizabeth_va…

Hehe, thank you!
I think it's horrible for both artists and people interested in those artists how art is spread over the internet without credit/asking.
That's why I started to stamp a source line on my pictures some time ago. It would be best to make a huge water sign on them, too, but somehow I still hesitate to do that.
Nice board - it will flatter Thranuil's humble ego.

It's okay, I think that humble ego of his is what attracted us in the first place. Mind you, I'd wear thigh high boots and walk all over that ego in a blink, if only I could find a way to bypass the tiny obstacle of him being in a different dimension. But art succeeds in bridging any dimention and overcoming any obstacle, that's why I love humorous fan art! So please keep on gracing us with it! It's really, really appreciated. As Mr. Gaiman said, "make good art." Make the art only you can do because it's yours, it has your sense of humour, your unique understanding of form and colour, and make this world and our lives richer! 
Have a great day!

I am glad to see you all here. There are a lot of artists in deviantart that gave me inspiration and helped me go on during those bleak days... Thank you all.
