Teenaged Bofur in a somber moment. I was having fun trying to imagine what the dwarves’ facial hair looked like when they were teenagers! Bofur was first because I thought he’d have a cute little Musketeer-like moustache! I wasn’t sure I’d be colouring this in the future so I tried to convey just how hideous his nana-made sweater is through the use of pom-poms and huge diamond patterns. 

I’m a tad infatuated with dwarven knit-wear. 

Their wool would come from goats, most likely, right? Well, Cashmere and Angora wool both comes from goats and it’s light and soft and warm. Maybe in this picture this is Bofur’s first encounter with a sheep’s wool sweater and it is itchy as all get out!? It might explain why he has a scarf on underneath of his sweater.
