Artwork based on The Hobbit (book or film). Considering the main focus of my site, you will find more dwarf-related art than otherwise.
- For fan-made costumes, replicas, and accessories please visit the Dwarf Costuming page.
If the artist has a site of their own, I have linked the image to it (where descriptions and more info can usually be found). If they have no other public site, then I’ve linked directly to a full-size image, and included any descriptions next to it.
A note on usage:
-Please contact the individual artists before re-posting their drawings on another site (most pictures link to their pages or email). I’m sure many would be pleased to share, but folks like to know you appreciate their talents, so be kind and ask.

- Thorin Oakenshield – by Tosmo
- Thorin – by JackofBlades, from The Gnomon Workshop
“My Thorin is based on the description from the Hobbit,
the armour is inspired by the Lord of the Rings films.
This was a fun piece to work on and one of my personal
bests. He wields the elf blade ‘Orcrist’.”
- Thorin Oakenshield Concept – by Ipranawake
- King Thorin – by Parpica from The Gnomon Workshop:
“I want him to look charismatic like a king, and strong like a warrior.”
- Thoughtful Thorin – by Peaceman from the Gnomon Workshop:
“Sometimes, in the cold, frosty winter nights up in the mountains, the
restless warrior Thorin Oakenshield walks a few feet away from his
companions and the fires to smoke the pipe on his own. It’s these silent,
lonely nights when Thorin gets thoughtful, remembering old friends and
ancestors lost long ago in the endless days of battle…”
- Thorin – by Lammakian
“I was just a kid when I first read The Hobbit and the thing that shocked
me the most back then, was how Thorin behaved after Smaug was defeated.
(Yep, Smaug is supposed to be a red dragon, but that’s him over there)
He was being consumed by greed. In my mind, I associated that with what
Tolkien calls “the dragon sickness” (at the end of the book), and I wanted
to depict that simple idea.”
