Puff Puff Puff. Different styles of pipes. Different types of leaf? Maybe they’re all trying a new hobbit strain? Really, this was just me doodling and trying to figure out the height differences between elves, dwarves, and hobbits according to the books and not the movies.
Sizes are hard, okay? XD Also, I have no sense of direction.
Doodled on a scrap piece of paper with some random pencil then inked with Staedtler pigment liners.

Hobbit sass is my favourite type of sass! I mean, Thorin’s a bit… well, Bilbo’s just so… cute? It’s hard to take him seriously when he gets all worked up like this! But because Thorin is a good king he tries his best to take Bilbo seriously.
Fuck that Floral Shit. Smol!Thorin (he’s too big to be teeny tiny) was totally down for a bath until Bilbo pulled out some floral (lavender) scented soap. DWARVES DO NOT SMELL LIKE FLOWERS! WEED-EATING ELVES SMELL LIKE FLOWERS! Get that weed-eater pit scrubber away from Thorin! Just bring him a rock from the garden and he can take it from there!
Bilbo: Don’t you want to smell nice, Thorin?
Thorin: Never once in my life have I thought flowers smell ‘nice’.
Bilbo: Come on, now. This is the only bathing soap I have and you must use soap to get clean!
Thorin: How about I eat that rotted bar of flower compost and crap something nice for you to smell?
Bilbo: OH!! That DOES it. You’re not getting your clothes back until you properly scrub with soap!
Thorin: I WOULD RATHER MARCH NAKED THROUGH HOBBITON THAN SMELL OF FLOWERS!
Bilbo: THAT CAN BE ARRANGED, YOUR MAJESTY!
Ahem. So I’ve been on vacation and that means art! And… cussing. Apparently. Look, things get pretty heated around bath time. Some people want other people to smell like flowers. And other people would RATHER DIE FIRST!
Teeny Tiny Introductions. The smoller Thorin is the ruder he seems! He’s not tiny and cute! He’s tiny and rude! When you’re that smol you have to always be on the defensive! You can’t see it, really, but in the last panel Thorin is giving Bilbo a THUMB DOWN!
Oh man. I completely underestimated the amount of work that would go into this strip. At least I’ve established just how teeny tiny little Thorin really is!

What if hobbits were potato people? I was doodling this pic of Thorin and… well. What about a modern AU where Thorin is a personal trainer and Bilbo is a potato person? So I drew Bilbo as a potato person. And laughed and laughed and laughed.
Then I was thinking, no wait, this could work.
Yavanna is wise and caring and powerful but… she’s a little hard of hearing! When she caught wind that the race of Man would, eventually, rule Middle Earth she heard the race of Yam and so… she made hobbits out of yams.
These quiet, gentle folk live underground (omg just like tubers!) for the most part. Sometimes they build above ground houses with straw insulation (omg! you can grow tubers buried in straw above ground!). They’re excellent gardeners and are very good at hiding (omg! Just like… no wait, I got nothing here). They also have hairy little foot-poofs. JUST LIKE POTA– okay, i’ll stop.
FOOT-POOFS!
I could see other PotatoAU story-lines such as:
IT WORKS IN SO MANY SITUATIONS!
From my PotatoAu notes, written late one night:
Bilbo: *stealing a bit of treasure*
Smaug: o_o Why is a potato stealing my treasure?
Why is a potato stealing my treasure? XD This is the most fun I’ve had drawing in a long time!
These were the first things I doodled on my new pad of Paris Bleedproof paper! Omg. If you meatspace ink your work you need to try this paper! When you ink the pens gliiiiiide across the paper. It’s so lovely! 0.3mm Pentel mechanical pencil with HB lead. Inked with 0.3mm and 0.1mm Staedtler pigment liners. Coloured in Photoshop These were all drawn on the same sheet of paper.
Train them with love. The lurverly @tea-blitz requested another Hobbit/Pokémon crossover with hobbits as last time I drew Bilbo with hobbits, it was him chasing off a troublesome bulbasaur and she felt hobbits and Pokémon would get on! :D I wanted to draw Bilbo obviously loving and being loved by his Pokémon!
Other Pokémon AU pics include:
ALTlolol I took a sketch from 2017 and tried painting it with just one layer of colour. Also, you just know Thorin’s ducklips were for Bilbo.
From a Hobbit Hockey AU I dabbled with.
Warm Hobbit. Someone gave Bilbo a dwarf sweater and he’s very pleased with it! He must have been cold. Maybe he if he washes it in warm water it will shrink a little bit? Maybe Dis made it for him?I like to think it’s one of Thorin’s old sweaters that he doesn’t like to wear much.
Inked with pigment liners on photocopy paper. XD Coloured in Photoshop.
Froggy Eyes. Ha! Betchy’all didn’t think I was srs?! I couldn’t get froggy-eyed Hobbit peeps out of my head so I doodled some more but this time in my official sketch book instead of on a pad of paper during a meeting.
1. Balin strikes me as a bit of a worrier. When I drew this, I imagined it being after Thorin and Dwalin had gone off together to ‘get supplies’ which usually means they get into trouble together. He’s just waiting for word to get back to him.
2. Thorin caught Kili playing with an elf doll!! I don’t imagine dwarves much care if their kids play with dolls are not but an ELF doll? IN THIS HOUSE? >:( Thorin wouldn’t be down with that. Also, I like to think of bbKili in pigtails.
3. Bilbo falling to his knees WRRRYYYY is something I like to imagine him doing. Dwarves using the good china. Dwarves eating all of his pantry. Dwarves rushing into battle. Dwarves. So many opportunities for him to do this!
4. omg. bbFrodo with so. Much. Hair. Because Thorin keeps hoping it will grow long enough to braid, dwarf-style. Bilbo knows it’s more likely to grow poofier than braidier and they argue all the time about cutting it. Then one day, bbFrodo cuts it all off with a pair of scissors and makes a mess of it. Bilbo and Thorin feel horribly guilty when bbFrodo said he did it so they’d stop fighting and it’s HIS HAIR ANYWAYS! bbHobbits in overalls and nothing else are probably the cutest things in the world. I also like to imagine that hobbit and elf children have floppy ears for the first few years then they get stiff as they age.
ALTSnugglebugs.
