Teeny Tiny Thorin

moosefrog

Today I don’t have a single sketch to update with because I’ve been pushing myself to try new art techniques and make yonkoma about Teeny Tiny Thorin. So far I have 11 strips planned and the first one will be posted next Tuesday! (It’s pretty much done but I’m futzing with the art, still.)

So what is a yonkoma? If you didn’t click the link to the wiki above I’ll tell you. It’s a four panel, vertically-aligned gag comic. I used to make these so I’m already familiar with the rhythm of thinking in four panels. It can be a bit of a challenge compared to regular comics!

Sort of like short story writing compared to novel writing.

I’m not strictly following the traditional Kishōtenketsu story structure because in a lot of these comics I’m mirroring the movie just with the twist/gag of Thorin being teeny-tiny.

I thought it might be interesting to post some of my progress and sketches today as it is Sketch Thursday? Warning, this gets long and there’s a lot of pics.

Teeny Tiny Dinner. It isn’t so much that Thorin is rude it’s just that the idea of a napkin being a family keepsake is very foreign to him. When you’re teeny tiny your boots are very precious! It isn’t as if any old cobbler could make you a new pair and if you take them off and put them at the front door there’s a very good chance they’ll be carried off by mice!

Once is quite enough to go hunting mice in your stockinged feet. Thank you very much.

Bwahahaha! I am enjoying creating these teeny tiny Thorin comics so much! I don’t know if it’s clear but in the second panel, Thorin is kicking a scone in half. And in the last panel, he is wiping his feet on the napkin. XD

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!

Teeny Tiny Arrival. This comic series is totally going to be self-indulgent. Sorry I’m not-sorry!

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3

I already blathered on about the process behind this comic at great length. Thank you to the few patient people who actually read it. XD I sort of wish I still had my tone library. Maybe I do on an external drive someplace. But I am also enjoying just playing with black and white. OH!! And the title for the comic uses a font called ‘Bilbo’ which just happened to be on my computer because I installed all of the Google Fonts!

Hi! A possible suggestion for Teeny Tiny: Bilbo giving Thorin an earful of hobbit sass. :-)

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.
