Description RAWRF! Hims be the big elfy kingly man. yes. he has no name yet.. someday i will remedy that.. some.. day... i'm not sure when. eh. this is just a portrait to get his features and colors down. that's right! so... here hims is. working more on DELVE.. so i got all these pretty new characters mm.. he made it just in time to (maybe) make it into the DELVE intro i'm doing ;3 bowahahhahaha.. but we'll see. Tshaude is his buddy (or... y'know.. servant or whatever.) Oh.. and this is definitely NOT his final outfit XD;; maybe pijamas or something? 'cause.. yeah that's just lame, i know XD i haven't made his royal clothings yet (and he'll probably have a crown and his hair done all bishie-funky and stuff @w@;;

Many thanks to for putting up with my ranting and questions while she was trying to work on her homework and i was drawing this ;;; harharhar~

Not sure why, but I think his foremost shoulder looks really small. Noticed the braid thing too. Good work overall.

I like the colors on this, and the markings on his face. Actually, his face in general is very distinctive. He looks a bit scarier than I'm used to seeing elves portrayed, but I think that's a very good thing. They can be menacing!

Thank you for the comment! I tried to make him a bit scarier than most elves are.. most of them are very frail and small and womanly-looking *laughs* and although this guy is very thin, due to being so old, I wanted to still make him look like he could really be a cold hearted killer if he needed to ;3 hehe Thanks ^_^

i like the background how it's so indistinct but you can get just enough shapes there to get an image. the coloring is so you. all they blue and grey. i like his two toned hair, though it does seem a bit inconsistent to have such a big braid come from what appears to be so small a segment of hair. his features look a little stronger and less androgenous than i normally think of when i think of elves. i kind of like that though. his hand seems to extend a little far and not be as curved as it seems like it should. he seems like an interesting character. can't wait to see more of your DELVE stuff.

*nods* Yeah, I know what you say about the braid.. I noticed after I drew him quite a few times i'm like "hmm.. this braid is as big as a braid that someone would have on the back of their head. huh." so I think I might play around with that a bit, thank you. And.. the hand and shoulders were a bit more of an afterthought than they really should have been... I was most interested in the face, and making him look how I wanted to. But, I'm glad you think he's a bit different of an Elf.. I wanted him to still look attractive by human standards.. but by elf standards have him seem rather old and strange and not very good-looking *laughs* Thank you for the comment.

He was standing right in front of me, few steps from where
I've been
That day the manor's tower is hiding a sun in agony
Filthy and soiled from head to feet, his sword was rusty
and ruined
But in his eyes I caught a fleeting glimpse of his pride

LOL had to get out my elvenking CD again hahaha. I love the ribbon in his hair, and he looks both graceful and very very powerful at the same time. And the modeling on the nose is FANTASTIC *_* I've always loved your noses. For names, I was thinking Vrynce? it just came to me the other day and sounded cool. Eh. Anyway. I can't wait to see how he fits into the story! It's going to be such an awesome, vast thing... mmmm.

He's got a bit of a neat tribal look to him. How about Claudius?

his outfit should be a lounging outfit.. I have a jumper like that.. it's baggy and for lounging.. and I bet elves lounge alot too..
especially royalty..
I like his very slender fingers..
