I remembered today that if I want to continue my accidental Bilbo and the troll tradition I need to get cracking on a new drawing before I wake up in 2024 having missed my chance.

2023 Bert stole 2020 Bert’s hair and put it all over his face. That’s why 2020 Bert was bald. I just didn’t know that at the time.

#bilbo #the man the myth the legends #beowulf except everybody is short #my trash #/end classification tags #bilbo continues his 2020 aspirations of becoming a contortionist #hear me out though: it's a bit difficult to have two characters have a non-awkward-looking conversation when #one is a hobbit #and the other is a troll #and the other is suspending the one in the air by holding the one's toes #let's at least admire bilbo's core strength in this drawing anyway #trying to form a sentence while holding yourself halfway through a hanging sit-up is not the easiest task in the world #for a 50-year-old hobbit he's doing remarkably well in that area #no but this one took like THREE HOURS #(maybe more?? i wasn't keeping exact track of time for it)#and i still somehow managed to get the perspective wrong #rip me #but hey this art tablet is such a lifesaver #also just so y'all know #i've got a moderately notable and time-consuming life change coming up in august #one which will require a decent amount of preparation beforehand #so i don't know if i'll be posting much during july or august #but then again who knows #i might #(also happy belated insufferable yank day to my american followers)#(sorry i didn't get a drawing done in time)#(i have been on the road for a MONTH and only got back last week)
