Norwegian Wood Elvesby *AndyFairhurst

Digital Art / Paintings & Airbrushing / Fantasy

*I have touched this one up a bit and added a nice ethereal glow...whether it is worth an update notification I don't know so I apologise, but for anyone who wants to know I have. Cheers.

They will hypnotize the little gembirds with their intoxicating eyes, then when the moment is right the elf will grab the bird from below in one swift movement. They don't offer much meat, but they taste divine.

These are nothing like the Norwegian wood elves in my book ( The Battle Of The Blue Glacier : A Tristas Treezle Adventure...still yet to be published

) but I couldn't think of a name for them so that was the best I could do.

This is the first time I have done a...dare I say it...elf! Never thought I would see the day.

Painted in photoshop cs2 with a wacOMmmmm

A photo of Jessica Stam was used as a ref for the elf on the left. For the elf on the right I used my Aqua painting as a rough template. I used my ears as a reference ( they aren't pointy though ) and my girlfriend kindly posed her hands ( yes all 3 ) for me. The bird I just made up. I saved some stages so will probably post a WIP at some stage
