"Bilbo peeped once more from the entrance, He was just about to step out on to the floor when he caught a sudden thin and piercing ray of red under the drooping lid of Smaug's left eye. He was only pretending to sleep! He was watching the tunnel entrance. Hurriedly Bilbo stepped back, and blessed the luck of his ring. Then Smaug spoke.

Well, theif! I smell you and I feel your air. I hear your breath. Come along! Help yourself again, there is plenty and to spare!"

So I've been re-reading the Hobbit recently (it's my favorite book) and when I got to this part in the text I had to stop, put the book down and sketch this out. I just love love love it.

The colours disappoint me again on the .png for some reaosn, the .psd is so bright and intense ;_; oh well

Man I really hope they make Smaug look awesome in the movie! I am so excited for the movies though. SO EXCITED.

This image took me like a week to do, because i did it in bursts of ..an hour most days ;A; so un natural for me. I just wantto sit down and work.
