Our new bedtime story is at hand - here's the Hobbit, with loads of little illustrations to help my son keep tabs on who is who! ^^

Also a welcome chance for me to put some of those characters on paper, so I don't lose hold of *my* characters when the movie comes out.

Note: I put Thorin as "Thorin Eichenschild" as I'll be reading the books to my son in German; for Bilbo, I forgot to call him "Beutlin". The name has been translated in the German edition because there's a passage when Bilbo talks to Smaug where he says, "I came from the end of a bag, but no bag came over me." So it has to be translated.

Pencil in moleskine sketchbook. Drawn during a looooooooong conference. Background made in Photoshop (by me).

A hobbit's Holliday (though most wouldn't consider it such)
that is actually kind of cool ^_^.... but why is Bilbo translated it's not in English in the first place.... i understand Oakenshield but Bilbo..... @_@ I hate it when they do that, and it seems the Japanese aren't the only ones with the problem.
Thranduil is more hansom then i picture him....but then thats because he's depicted as cruel and ugly in the original cartoon.
