Description
The grass was scanty, course, and grey; and the leaves in the thickets were fading and falling. It was a cheerless land, and their journey was slow and gloomy. They spoke little as they trudged along. Frodo's heart was grieved as he watched them walking beside him with their heads down, and their backs bowed under their burdens. Even Strider seemed tired and heavy-hearted.Uhhh, I was completely going to do a background for this, but...that didn't happen. Sorry bout that.
I swear I tell myself that hobbits aren't twiggy, but my hand doesn't listen like it should. WELP.

I love the way you draw hobbits! The expressions are fantastic!

Wow I love this! I really like how you drew Frodo's face. He really does look very sick and very weary. As for the other hobbits, I'm not sure which is which, but I still love how you drew them! My guess is that (left to right) it goes: Pippin, Frodo, Sam, Merry, but I'm not really sure. Could you clarify for me? Thanks! Or maybe Sam is the one in front and Merry is leading Bill? But I think Sam has a closer connection with Bill than the other hobbits do, so I'd still think he's the one leading Bill. Ah, anyways, great work

I think it looks good without the background; that allows the focus to be on the characters.

I think he's still just hanging around illustrating things! The most recent thing I tripped on the other day is that he did new illustrations for the Scary Stories series. Just like the Brettster!
