I feel pretty.
In epsiode 9 [NEIN] Jester said she has to look pretty to visit the ~fancy~ part of town and that made me want to draw her wearing lolita-inspired fashion! (The Japanese style not, um, the book.)
The final image is under the cut!

I like to doodle when I listen to Critical Role. I’m only on episode 9. (NEIN! XD)
This Pretty Flower has Thorns. I love Max. I mean, I love nearly every character on Black Sails… but Max has the best costumes and just seems so tough and pragmatic yet knows how to yield and when to push to get what she wants.
Doodled on my iPad with Procreate. I’m getting the hang of using this but it would be nice if I had more time to practice.
Sorry, not sorry.
I feel like sorry, not sorry, is something Nott says in her head a lot. XD

And you all probably thought I was bluffing!
Dwalin the goat-centaur looking all sexyfine. I mean, he probably doesn’t know he looks sexyfine. He’s just taking a break, watching Thorin take a bleating from his nephews. Ha!
Apparently, I still don’t know how to crop images properly in Procreate. I’ll figure it out eventually. Know how this image got here? I exported it as a jpg to my dropbox. I have a Zapier zap that looks for uploads to that specific dropbox folder then moves the file to my cloudinary account and tags it for this tumblr account. I have a second zap that looks for a certain tag in my cloudinary account then uses that image to draft a new post on tumblr! Then, when I have time to actually post, I just log into Tumblr and there’s a draft post with my image on it! Tadaaaa! Technology!
Gotcher Loot! I… I confess I seem to have a thing for drawing cute little octopus versions of characters but this one of a wee Octo!Silver is all @medusinestories‘ fault! At least, it’s dedicated to @medusinestories. XD
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!
First off, thank you to everyone who has liked or reblogged my art this year! I started in April and posted twice a week, every week, until sometime this fall! In 2017 I created more fanart than I had done in the ten years prior! So, thank you, for encouraging me to keep going.
I couldn’t possibly include all of the art I created this year in my summary so I picked twelve of my favourite, non-sketch Hobbit pieces (and it was hard to pick!):
01. Captain of the Erebor Ravens 02. thorin_dramatic_pose.psd 03. Bilbo of Erebor 04. Flower Crown 05. Treat or Treat! 06. Bilbo’s had enough of your nonsense 07. Grump 08. Mirkwood’s #1 Trainer 09. Teeny Tiny Thorin Comics 10. What if Hobbits were potato people? 11. Gifts from a Dwarven King 12. Train Them With Love
I’m not 100% sure what I’ll be doing for 2018 or in what fandom(s). The Hobbit was a lot of fun but my takes on the characters/subject matter didn’t seem to resonate with very many people. Or maybe there aren’t a lot of people who like AUs in The Hobbit fandom? (Considering 90% of what I create is AU… Haha Imma never stop!) Or… maybe I just need to up my art game which is totally valid! I found that after a few weeks of producing work I quickly settled into an ‘art rut’ that I never managed to break out of.
I’ll figure it out eventually but in the meantime I think I’ll be concentrating on learning new art techniques, experimenting more, and maybe posting less ‘finished’ works and more of my art struggles and sketches in 2018.
Thank you, again. I feel so accomplished and satisfied this year! I almost feel like I am a creative person, again.

Mer-Bombur. Quick doodley-doo I couldn’t get out of my head. Mer-Bombur is half pearl-scaled goldfish!
Yeah. I dunno what I’m doing anymore either.
