Trying to figure out just how teeny tiny Thorin should be based on upcoming scripts! I mean, the first one is tiny. The second one is teeny. The third one… that’s pretty teeny tiny? He’s still too big to fit in a teacup but he’d have a hard time getting out of a pint. Marked as NSFW because, technically, they don’t have clothes on even if they don’t have any nips or bits.

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.
Hobbit Headles. This line art has been sitting around since February and I’m just finishing it up, now. I wanted to draw even shorter hobbits and dwarves and the first thing that leapt to mind was taking away their torsos. XD Don’t judge meeeee!
And here is the jpg!
Middle Earth Crossing. So I have been playing Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp and imagining Hobbit characters being in the game! And as it is Thursday which means I post sketches and unfinished work, here are some rough sketches of what that might look like! I’m hoping to do some more of these but finished and coloured.
My favourite part was putting Thorin in a dress which was the only way to approximate his outfit! Haha! Bilbo’s foot fuzz is just lines.
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.
Divide. I can’t imagine these two never having an argument even if they get their happily ever after! They may bluster and wave their arms around but after a cooling off period there will be apologies. ^_^
I’ve been art-blocked lately so I took a peek at the Inktober prompt list and saw ‘divide’ which got me drawing this! I also tried a new brush and went with grey lineart instead of black.
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.
Reblog for the evening crowd! (Sorry, I posted it earlier than I normally do.)
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
