The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug Trailer Recap
So, call me crazy, but the picture above was my favorite shot from the trailer. It's just . . . just . . . awesome. Ruined Dale, Lonely Mountain, dwarves . . . it has everything. And the rest of the trailer? Yeah, it was pretty sweet as well. If you haven't seen it yet, here it is:
Now just jump past the break to see a whole mess of screen shots and my reactions to (some of) them:
How Big are Rhosgobel Rabbits?
So I noticed that a lot of people were stumbling across my blog while trying to figure out just how big Radagast's rabbits are. Well, I did some quick research (and a little bit of eye-balling the various scenes where the wizard and his fuzzy haulers share the screen) and came up with this little graphic you see above. Jump past the break to see more!
Desolation of Smaug Poster!
Finally! Some updates! The trailer is coming this week, and here, for your viewing pleasure, is the first poster for the Desolation of Smaug:
I'm officially getting excited . . . only slightly more than 150 days to go!
Desolation of Smaug Updates: New pics of Tauriel and Post-Smaug Dale!
Has it been a while since I posted? Yes. Definitely. But then again, not much has happened Hobbit-related in a while. At least, not much that I really care about. But just over the past few days two new pictures have been released (see above and below) and rumors are that next week we'll get our first TH:TDSU trailer! So, I guess I'd better start being active around here again.
Friday at the Mathom-House: Abe Papakhian
Friday is here again folks, and this time we're enjoying the amazing illustrations of Abe Papkhian. You can check out all of Abe's work over on Deviantart.com. Continuing last week's theme of hand-drawn art, Abe's illustrations are all pencil or watercolor. Now, I'm not sure if you'll agree, but I feel like there is definitely something Brother's Hildebrandt about Abe's style. I'm a fan. Jump past the break to see even more awesome Hobbit and LOTR art.
Friday at the Mathom-House: Ulla Thynell
Friday has come, and with it some fantastic Hobbit and LOTR art by Ulla Thynell. This artist caught my eye while I was perusing the interwebs . . . I hope you like the work as much as I do. Really there are two things I appreciate about these pieces: first, they're not the normal digital art we see so much of nowadays––not that there is anything wrong with digital work, it's just refreshing to see some good-old hand drawn stuff now and again; second, Ulla's style reminds me of Tolkien's own work . . . that that is really fun to see. Jump past the break and enjoy!
