Clearly, I didn't go for a complete realistic look, especially when you are comparing it to the actual picture, it is a lot different in some ways. I appropriated his stance and other details and then went my own way with it, instead of drawing it from the source completely. I rather went for an almost exaggerated and cartoon-like look for the face, which I think captures his character well. The overall intention was to go for a kind of "older" Bilbo, almost an amalgam of Martin Freeman and his Lord of the Rings counterpart Ian Holm, and his transition into old age.
I am certainly not finished with it, If I ever get around to making any drastic alterations I may make a post in the future as a follow up, but for now I will leave it as it is and move on to other projects!
If you have any criticism I would love to hear it! Thanks!
