Helloooo!! I really like moomins, the books as well as the series, and I also heard tumblr likes the moomins too, so I wanted to try my hand at drawing moomin :D

Anyways, have a good day/evening!!

“Suddenly Moomintroll lifted his nose and listened! Far away Snufkin was playing his gayest song: ‘All small beasts should have bows in their tails.’ And Moomintroll began to run towards the music."

Down by the river he came upon Snufkin who was sitting on the bridge with his legs dangling over the water, his old hat pulled down over his ears.

Hello,’ said Moomintroll sitting down beside him. ‘Hello to you,’ said Snufkin, and went on playing. The sun was up now and shone straight into their eyes, making them blink. They sat swinging their legs over the running water, feeling happy and carefree.”

- Finn Family Moomintroll, 1948

A lineup of all the "The Fillyjonk"s throughout the books (plus Mrs. Fillyjonk herself from the comics)

For the love of Booble stop mixing them up and thinking they're the same character it drives me insane.
