Dressing up and making friends


I am going to a LOTR thing next month. I was challenged to make a series of characters from the books. So…

I’ve spent the last forever, making patterns to fit this wee little guy. While he looks like Jack and Ralphie, he is only 7 inches tall to the top of his curly hair. And he has a wee shirt with collar (and FACING for goodness sake) a vest, pants and a cloak. This is a progress shot as I need to make the vest larger (AGAIN) and make the cloak in the proper fabric. I also need to go the craft store and find something that will work for the tiny gold ring that goes around his neck as well as ties for the cloak.

And here is his little tree friend. Unfortunately, you can’t see the details and I had so much trouble with digitizing that I wasn’t able to add the leaves to the tree. But I am going to try again today.

Should I work on the wizard or the elf next?

Not a reader of LOTR, but I love your take on the characters.
