To my pleasant surprise a quick sketch (abused with the smudge tool) has been fairly popular on tumblr (which is where I'd most likely post fanart) so I thought people here might like it too. :dummy:

Info

For those with some reading still to do, Thorin Oakenshield has both a brother and a sister; his brother Frerin died at a young age at the Battle of Azanulbizar, but his sister Dís features as the mother of Fíli and Kíli (and she wasn’t at all happy about Thorin taking her sons off dragon hunting.)

In light of Thorin’s movie magnificence and his cutie nephews (this is according to tumblr, may as well not argue :P), I got to wondering how much of a hottie dwarf Dís must be; their mother needs a little credit right? xD

Not that the picture in my head translated at all. :x Welp, I don’t draw humanoids enough.
Having said that though, no reference wahey! :la:

Yes Dwarf ladies have beards.
And of course she’d have magnificent hair to match Thorin's


:star: It's fanart, so I don't mind what you do with it as long as you don't claim it as your own work. And a link back here would be nice. :D :star:

For some reason, I thought of Galadriel when I saw this...

I think you did an amazing job with this. (Sometime the quick work is the best.) When I always imagine Dis, I just sort of saw her as a generic, pudgy dwarf woman. But then, I wanted an image to look at while I wrote her into my fanfic so I typed her name into the search and saw this picture, I was like - Yes. This is Dis as she ought to be. She looks exactly like Thorin's sister and like the mother of Fili and Kili. I'm impressed. And she manages to be beautiful with the beard. I think this is amazing and I'm totally using this as my inspiration for her character - thank you!
(You should do a drawing of Frerin.)
