Description

If James McAvoy's face is the hardest to draw, then Tom Hiddleston is by far the easiest. IT'S JUST SO EASY. :heart:

I'm frankly quite proud of this because:

a) It's a digital painting
b) It was my combo breaker in a long line of not drawing bodies/poses
c) I actually enjoyed it
d) LOKI
e) POLEDANCING

So I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. :33 I was originally going to upload it vertically, but I think horizontal looks more...magical. 8DDD

Also, it's really uncanny how much he looks like Johnny Weir in this photo: [link]

NOW IMAGINE LOKI ICE-SKATING TO POKER FACE AND JUST BEING COMPLETELY FABULOUS. :D

The saying holds true that you can never have too much Loki poledancing on the Internet. So here is my humble contribution.

Unimportant but although I love Loki, I can't bring myself to ship him with Thor. I...I really didn't sympathise with Thor at all in the movie, no emotional connection - but Loki, he stole mein heart. *u* Tom Hiddleston, you saved this movie.
Not to mention I don't usually side with Thor in the original Norse myths. I mean, he's pretty much portrayed as a bumbling oaf next to Loki, isn't he? :S And Loki's so clever, I just don't feel it's right to pair them up.
(And a shallow point - I prefer dark-haired, pale, delicate men to blond beefy ones. Ahahaha. :'D)
But for those who do ship them, I'm pretty sure one of the Norse myths involves Loki tricking Thor into dressing up as Freya, partly because it would help get Mjolnir back from the frost giants, but mostly because he thought it would be great fun to see Thor in a dress. There you go.

Another unimportant note is that I always refer to him as Loki Lie-Smith thanks to American Gods. That can't be his surname, but as far as my memory is concerned, it is. Old habits die hard, I suppose.

This is also on Tumblr, if you'd like to reblog it.
