Community Recs Post!

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool podfics/fanart/fancrafts/fanvids/other kinds of fanworks/fics have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here.

* Crochet RM with Saxophone doll by

Sonichka2 - A genius crocheted fanwork centered around that moment back in June when RM showed up to celebrate Jin's military discharged in bedazzled jean shorts. He played "Dynamite" via his saxophone.

* Winter's Favorite Consort by emnoel at Bluesky - What a gorgeous birthday portrait of Taehyung! The colors and his expression are breathtaking, really.

* there is no one else by

nyanjinnie - A sweet moment between Jin and Jungkook. I love the intimate vibe between them.

* Come Back to Me by

MarmarArts- GORGEOUS and golden-hued RM portrait inspired by the MV for "Come Back to Me".

* FACE papercut by

myamm_art- AMAZINGLY detailed paper fanart.

Amazing fancraft pieces!
I loved for me how both Taehyung's and Come again had scifi vibes, instantly relayed them to my friend who nowadays gets most of their scifi from BTS fics.
Thank you for sharing these recs.

Hahah, I hadn't thought of the V one having sci-fic vibes, but I can see it now! :P

Oh, I love papercraft - that is SO cool!

The crochet doll is amazing too. The little shoes are so cute!

Thanks for sharing these. :)

You're welcome! The papercraft one left me feeling quite

__@ cuz it's soo pretty, NGL. And, yup, the crochet doll is adorbs as heck. :)

A bunch of art recs from me today! First one on AO3 and then several from tumblr:

DMBJ/The Lost Tomb/The Grave Robbers' Chronicles
The Little Tomb Robber's Alphabet joint art work by cayra, fox_of_nine_tales, hisapyon, mekare, MountainRose, psghayleaux, SirAuraelius, and Thimblerig
Summary: Wu Xie is bored in Yucun and has got it into his head to write a children's book about tomb robbing. Naturally, Xiaoge and Pangzi help out. How much baiju has been involved in the production is anyone's guess. (An adorable alphabetic art book take on DMBJ with very little, if any, fandom knowledge needed)

tumblr:
Doctor Who
- just admiring the view (absolutely adorable Five)

Dracula
- Undead wanderer Quincey P Morris, Bram Stoker can come fight me (eerie yet incredible)

MDZS/The Untamed
- Me, every time WWX and LSZ are in a scene together: THAT’S YOUR BABY. THAT’S! YOUR! BABY! (gorgeous ghost!wwx and young lan sizhui)
- One of my favorite things about The Untamed is how it begins with Wei Wuxian saying ‘Lan Zhan’ and finishes with Lan Wangji saying ‘Wei Ying’ (amazing comic)
- here's to drawing more wangxian in 2025! happy new year!! (lovely art set up like pages of a children's book)

Nirvana in Fire
- Frosted flames (gorgeous art of the majority of the core cast), also on AO3 here
