#and the sam to my frodo

[toodley]

when i say i want a best friend i mean i want a best friend in the way Sam is Frodo's best friend & Arthur is Merlin's best friend & Peeta is Katniss's best friend. yeah we need to be mutually utterly devoted and ready to sacrifice ourselves for the other at any given moment. no i cannot lower my standards and no i do not accept feedback.

sam, reading bilbo’s book: “well now, i’m sure he had a very nice voice, but that’s hardly a reason to go on an adventure with someone you just met”

sam: turns page to an illustration of thorin, with his dark hair and blue eyes

sam: “understandable, good for you mister bilbo”

“He never had any real hope in the affair from the beginning; but being a cheerful hobbit he had not needed hope, as long as despair could be postponed.”

The comic is based on a scene from the chapter “The passage of the marshes”

I decided to redraw the hobbits hiding from the Nazgûl! I was inspired by the Nazgûl in the animated lotr film but my version just ended up looking like a Scooby Doo villain (I kinda like him tho)

Lotr headcanon, having lots of patches on your clothes is fashionable in the Shire. The more patches, the cooler you are. Especially if it's a lot of different fabrics. It's common to trade patches with friends and family, and it's usually treated with high sentimental value. It's like carrying a piece of someone with you.

While the hobbits are on the quest, their clothes get holes and such. This leads Sam and Frodo to nab small things from the other members of the fellowship, like handkerchiefs or anything too worn for use, to use as patches. Merry and Pippin aren't so courteous, and cut pieces from the fellowship's clothes while they sleep.

Of course, the hobbits exchange patches amongst themselves while traveling, and they never go anywhere without a needle and some thread. Sam is the best at sewing. Pippin is not allowed around needles.

Boromir notices this, thinks it's adorable, and leaves things out purposely for the hobbits to use. Eventually, he asks about it, and they convince him to do the patches, too.

Aragorn also notices and thinks it's adorable, but doesn't bring it up to them. He's secretly flattered to find pieces of his rag on Frodo's pants. He asks Boromir about it instead.

Legolas doesn't notice. His clothes are elven-made, and the scissors refuse to cut it.

Gimli notices the random holes in his clothes, and the things going missing, but doesn't realize it's the hobbits. He brings it up to Legolas, who immediately convinces Gimli that he's crazy and it's all in his head.

Gandalf notices, obviously, and he doesn't mind until Pippin tries to cut his cloak while hes asleep. He proceeds to wake up and yell at him until dawn.

After Boromir dies, Aragorn takes his cloak, and sews pieces onto his clothes. These are the only patches he has.

Bilbo has a set of clothes with patches from the dwarves, from his own adventure. He told them about the tradition, and they all gave him pieces of fabric to use. He can still recount which patch belonged to who.

Friendly reminder that Frodo named his pony Strider when he got back to the Shire. Friendly reminder that all the hobbits continued to call Aragorn “Strider” (at least on occasion) even after his coronation. Friendly reminder that Aragorn said that the name meant so much to him that he was going to make it his family name. Friendly reminder that the hobbits and Aragorn considered themselves close friends, even with everything going on. Friendly reminder that Merry and Pippin are buried with Aragorn.

It's time to share another coffee painting from the archives, and this time, it's Samwise Gamgee's turn 🫶

I painted it before I was due to meet Sean Astin at the FACTS convention in Belgium. Last minute, I made another painting as I wasn't entirely happy with the first one, depicting the scene where Sam carries Frodo, because it's such an epic moment. I let him pick from either original, and he decided to keep the second one. He quickly grabbed a cup of coffee to pose with when I snapped a picture 😂

He was an absolute sweetheart, and he signed both prints for me to keep 🙏

I had a few people react to the Sam and Frodo-one, saying it doesn't look like Sam. But that's the tortured and sooty face he has during that particular scene 😅

Painted with instant coffee on heavyweight smooth paper.
