Except for the size double F's this one ain't so bad. Cronnacht would party with her.

This one was my favourite when I saw the pencil sketches. I particularly liked the calm relaxed attitude, the gypsy-like outfit, and the dagger being casually held. The relaxed way she sits on the broom, looking very comfortable like she's sitting on a recliner, was also very cool. It is very different than the way I normally see elves (especially after being inundated with Tolkien over the past few years of movies). So artistically, this was the best pencil sketch. Though now that I see the actual painted forms I think there are one or two I like more that artistically ended up better than I expected. I won't say which ones since they've not been released yet and I don't want to skew the voting, though no, they are not female portraits. And yes, I did like the pencil sketch of the elfen for other non-artistic reasons. tongue.gif

I just find the gypsie idea to be way too human. I mean, elfen live in the woods, have long lives, and gypsies travel from town to town telling the future and selling things.
And the ears are too big. Well, in fact, many things are too big. I like the eyes smile.gif

She isn't a gypsy. She's just dressed in a style that looks sort of like one. I think she's making a fashion statement, not a living the lifestyle.

I still think she's a pirate, she's too... bloodthirsty-looking to be a gypsy, and she's holding that dagger like she intends to stab something with it chin.gif (Wheee new smilies igetit.gif)
Unknown2005-04-18 14:53:02
You don't think a gypsy would stab you?

Anyway, point is, she doesn't look overly Moondancerish to me.

That flower is annoying me.

Meh, I guess I am most critical of that which I expect the most from.

The broom is too small. According to it's description, it's six feet long (even if you're a faeling O_o). And her breasts are way too massive.

Other than that, AWESOME.

Maybe yours is 6 feet, but the broommakers are trying to ride off the success of Apple's new Mac Mini. She's riding the new the Nimbus 2000 Mini. It's currently only available at Hogwarts and should be released to the Lusternian public in the fourth quarter of 2005 once they reach mass production capacity. This elfen was hired as a sponsor to promote the new model prerelease.

I don't know if anyone has noticed the subtle triple moon symbol worked into the belt and torc as her big boots may have distracted you, but I think it's a subtle touch that is very nice.
Unknown2005-04-18 15:30:59
I think the boots get in the way of the belt.
Desdemona2005-04-18 16:26:59
It is amazing how much attention people pay to the elfen's "boots" ohmy.gif

Nice pic, by the way.
Summer2005-04-18 16:38:03
Okay, I'm evil, but... do the ears look awfully like ones you'd see on a donkey?

Being a happy elfen...though Harstone...Gotta make my comments.

The moon in the belt and torc = awesome, I love that. wub.gif

Her attitude...I have to admit I like that.

The punched in the face lips..the ears that could be used for wings...and the boobs *sway* naughty naughty. *laugh* I don't think I've seen an elfen in the game yet that looked like she had discovered implants.
Ceres2005-04-18 16:48:02
The front of the top does look somewhat strained.
Veonira2005-04-18 17:34:44
Pretty! But I want to see more men :|. I'll have to vote.
Karrah2005-04-18 19:10:54
Looks like a gypsy.

Good original picture though, instead of the generic elf style.
Llexyn2005-04-18 19:11:57
Yeah, awesome picture.

I think the artist is biased. Not all the females have that big of feet!

Thank the spiffy tailors and forgers for the spectacular and snug fitting outfits and armour they make, else that elfen be ... quickexit.gif blackeye.gif

Wait, people actually pay attention to the boots? And here I was focusing all my attention somewhere else..
Narsrim2005-04-18 19:16:10
Kick ass! This is the best so far.
