Conversation Heart art prompts

I have had the flu all week! The blue ones are less awful-tasting when you can’t smell, but still pretty bad. Most of these have no color, because it’s hard to color when you’re coughing and sneezing and pathetic. I’m not dead yet, though! I’m feeling better! Anyway, the whims of fate and candy have brought these seven new sketches.

I admit, I googled bad Star Trek pick-up lines and picked my favorite for Kirk. Cheeky bugger.

Kitties are the perfect way to melt anyone’s frozen heart, even Anna’s.

I still haven’t had any proper tea this week. Herbal, yes, but I miss my Earl Grey!

If you haven’t seen Galavant then I’m very sad for you. But I still super believe in Tad Cooper.

Ahaha I was so sick when I did this, but I still find it hilarious. Especially the judicious use of glitter gel pen.

Thorin + Arkenstone = OTP.

It’s up to you who’s on the other end of the comm there. Kingsman is one of those movies I adore despite the parts I hate (ugh FPS violence), and rewatching it while sick totally renewed all my crushes.

Stitch good.

Ohana means family. And family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.

Affection

Affection, The Hobbit fan art sketch by Amy Crook

Affection, The Hobbit fan art sketch by Amy Crook

Thorin’s being affectionate with his burglar in this little doodle, with some mysterious sparkly bubbles in the background because reasons. Texture reasons.

I had some extra square bits of paper, and rather than chop them up into bookmarks, I decided to sketch on them! This is the first of four, well, two that are done, and two that still need to be done.

Affection, 4.25″x4.25″ pen & ink and pencil on parchment cardstock.

Bead and Braid

Bead & Braid, a Hobbit comic by Amy Crook

Bead & Braid, a Hobbit comic by Amy Crook

For Wednesday we have an adorable moment that needs no words, with Thorin braiding Bilbo’s hair while Bilbo holds a suspiciously dwarven bead to go in it. This is one of those simple images that can be as much about friendship as anything else.

You can pick up this card for your favorite dwarf or hobbit here in my Etsy shop.

Bead & Braid, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

Yule Gifts, a Hobbit parody comic by Amy Crook

Yule Gifts, a Hobbit parody comic by Amy Crook

Thorin has a beautifully-wrought golden lantern in the shape of an apple for his Burglar for Yule. Bilbo has made a very hobbity wreath of fresh evergreens for the King Under the Mountain.

They both have the cutest blushes from knowing that the other person thought of them for the winter holidays.

You can send this adorable holiday card and spread the yuletide cheer, just pick one up at my Etsy shop!

Yule Gifts, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper.

Not That Kind of Dwarf

Not That Kind of Dwarf, parody comic by Amy Crook

Not That Kind of Dwarf, parody comic by Amy Crook

“Hi Ho, Hi Ho, to Erebor we go!”

“I’m not that kind of dwarf!”

The last of my friends’ silly sketch prompts, though I admit to taking liberties with the intent of “Thorin and his minions.” This is sort of a three-way crossover, with the Disney song sneaking in a third fandom. Because reasons.

You can get Thorin and his Minions on a card at my Etsy shop, to add a bit of surreal pop culture to the day of a very deserving friend.

Flowers for Bilbo

Flowers for Bilbo, a Hobbit parody commission by Amy Crook

“Tears, Gandalf. Tears and murder.”

Yes, this is related to a fic. No, I’m not going to tell you where to find it. Just be amused by poor Bilbo getting courting bouquets by two infamous dwarves, Dwalin and Thorin. Don’t worry, I’m sure it all turns out all right in the end, no murder required.

Flowers for Bilbo, 7″x5″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper, nfs (sold).

Above, you can see Bilbo’s worried expression and pink blush, and some of my carefully-researched flowers. I had to look up what most things actually looked like, though I did know how to draw Lily of the Valley already. Below, you can see it hanging out in a temporary frame, looking spiffy before it gets shipped off to its new home.

No One Fights Like Thorin

No One Fights Like Thorin,
a Hobbit/Beauty and the Beast parody cartoon by Amy Crook

I’m not sure at what point I equated the dwarves’ invasion of Bag End with Gaston’s proposal to Belle, muddy boots and all, but this is the result. This, and having that song about Gaston in my head for days, that is.

I used google to find a good image of Gaston with his boots up. Poor Bilbo, he looks as dismayed about Great-Grandmother Baggins’ table-runner as Belle did about her book.

Gaston proposes to Belle

Above, you can see the original scene of which mine is merely a parody. Below, you can see a totally random close-up of Thorin’s muddy boots.

“…Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Thorin!”
