    Back to the Fellowship. The final two members were also the youngest members of the Party. This included today's subject.. Peregrin Took, aka Pippin. Billy Boyd played Pippin in Peter Jackson's trilogy. To be honest, Pippin is one of my least favorite characters. Not because of Billy Body's acting- he did a great job. Pippin is the group screw-up. When he knocked the bucket and chain into the well in Moria and alerted the whole place to their presence.. well, that was a cringeworthy moment. But he also has some great lines in the movie.. "What about second breakfast?" is probably my favorite. He breaks down and tells Denethor the truth about Boromir even after Gandalf tells him not to speak.. and ends up getting drafted into the Army of Gondor for his trouble. 

   As for the sketch, Mike does a good job of capturing what I call Pippin's "sleepy eyed" look, which I'm sure is more of a byproduct of Billy Boyd's physical features than anything. Or maybe it's his need for second breakfast. 

   Whatever the case, that's all for today. Thanks to all for stopping by and reading!
