Description
On the same line as [link]This rapresents Fredegar Bolger after he was prisoned for months (?) when "Sharkey" took over the Shire. He was found starving and saved after Sharkey's defeat.
I wanted to portray him and his younger sister Estella, that is helping him to get home.
A note about their hair. I wanted them to have nice dark red hair, but OF COURSE the scanner ruined the color giving it a stupid fake red appereance
(this is kind of what I had in my mind [link] )

Aw, Fredegar Bolger! He gets so little appreciation, but I'm fond of him--the unsung Hobbit hero. This is a really sweet picture.

Yes! Poor Fredegar, I don't know if it's true but I've read that Tolkien originally planned for him to leave the Shire with the other four!
Thank you

He did, you can read about it in the History of Middle-earth series, specifically in 'The Return of the Shadow'. They're really interesting books, full of Tolkien's drafts and notes and things--he was originally going to have Aragorn be a hobbit!
