Description this is something i've been working on since february.

anyway, one of my favourite parts of the hobbit would have to be when they stayed at the house of Beorn, only because beorn is just the COOLEST CHARACTER EVAR.

so here we have bilbo chilling with some of Beorn's animal friends. Since smaug was unfamiliar with the scent of a hobbit when he first encountered bilbo, i was trying to work with the reaction beorn's animal friends would have had when they met a hobbit for the first time. the title of this is supposed to be what the critters were thinking.

im trying to get as much "the hobbit" fanart out of the way as i can before they make the movie version and i lose my original vision :3

speaking of which, as much as i love james macAvoy, im not sure how i feel about him being cast as bilbo, primarily becuse of the hobbit flashback at the begining of FotR when they show a very ian holmish bilbo finding the ring. which used to bother me because bilbo was so much younger than that on his journey. which is why im glad they cast james macavoy, but its gonna create some awkwardness when "the hobbit" comes out on DVD and i watch the hobbit and LotR consecutively and then having the flashback in FotR.


i really do need a life....i think i'll go draw more fanart

(incase you didn't catch it, that last statement was riddled with hillarious irony)

Oh my goodness, this is so cute! (And well done! )

On the topic of The Hobbit casting, I was just thinking about that today. I don't believe they've announced who's playing Bilbo yet. Or are you just speculating on fan rumors? I just freaked out a little and went searching imdb and theonering.net for news.

it took me a while to remember where i heard it, but it was like february of last year and i read an article interviewing Ian McKellen about how he would still be playing gandalf, and how they wanted Christopher Lee to do the voice of smaug, but that he was declining the offer due to not wanting to travel all the way to new zealand again. (i guess he's been in bad health lately :C)

anyway, at the bottom of the article there was a mention of some of the other casting possibilities, where which mr. MacAvoy was mentioned, but i guess it was far from official.

what i can say, however (even though i'm not a legolas fan per se) there must be a legolas cameo in the court of thranduil. THERE MUST!! XD

Yeah, if you read it last year, then you're a little out of the loop. That was just a rumor, though I think he might be up for consideration? They haven't settled on any of the leads yet, though they are starting the casting process this week.

I would love many cameos, but something tells me it might not happen.

You know they have an address up for extras casting. I might submit a photo.

ahhh, if i could afford a trip to new zealand i would too!

yeah, sometime in the middle of last year i decided i was going to stop following, just because i wanted to keep everything a surprise. i guess if i know too much too soon, i could burst from anticipation!

Haha, yeah, I don't want anything to get spoiled.

Though I wouldn't mind spoilers if I got to be on-set as an extra or a PA. x3

I'm not so sure about the rumors about James McAvoy as Bilbo...... And I don't agree with you about how old was Bilbo at the time of The Hobbit: he was a grown-up hobbit! His long life after returning home is the result of the Ring's power.

Anyway, I love your work and the theme is particularly interesting because you found something unsaid in the book

yeah i heard something recently that he's been denying the claims of his casting.

anyway, in the hobbit, bilbo was the same age as frodo was in LotR, 50. However, hobbits age differently than humans do, and 50 is quite young in hobbit years. probably the equivalent of a human in their mid-20's. So yes, bilbo was an adult, but he was also still very young, comparatively.
