Oin Birthday
Thursday, March 21st, 2013
There’s something really fun about drawing parody dwarves, especially knowing there’s 13 of them to draw. Oin, brother of Gloin, is a rather old and cranky dwarf and a bit hard of hearing. He’s got a couple of hundred years on you and is therefore completely unimpressed with your angst about that big birthday milestone.
I made this for sort of an anti-over-the-hill card, because sometimes I get tired of hearing people worrying about turning 30, 40, 50, or whatever. Also, grumpy dwarf. Okay, mostly for the grumpy dwarf.
Oin Birthday, 5″x7″ pen & ink and Copic marker on paper, nfs (sold), but you can get him on a card in my Etsy shop.

No One Fights Like Thorin
Monday, March 11th, 2013
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.
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.

OKCthulhu
Tuesday, January 1st, 2013
I was waffling about what to do for a Cthulhu Valentine this year when my friend Jeff suggested this particular parody idea. The result isn’t so much a Valentine as a wish for the recipient to find love without having to resort to Cthulhu. There’s references here to some of my favorite games, not to mention a certain popular dating site and a certain parody Tumblr.
And yes, Cthulhu is wearing a fedora.
