Description Commissioned for of her male elven character Chemilia.

I had a wonderful time working on this one. The character was described as "a blend of the characters Thranduil and Elrond from the Lord of the Rings series" with a "crown of deer/elk antlers, acorns, and leaves". But beyond that I was given free range to paint him as I wanted (costume design, pose etc.) and I must say I'm really happy at how he came out.


Also, I posed a close up shot of his face on my Facebook page (link below) a couple days ago. Take a look if interested.

Painted in photoshop.
Pose reference: Sword pose stock 34
No Critique desired.

The ErlKing, or that is what I thought upon first seeing him. Β Also reminds me of the God of the Hunt as described in Tamora Pierce's Wild Magic series. Β Beautiful no matter what the name.

Beautiful details and gorgeous coloring! I can't get enough of it Honestly, if I had a full-time job right now I would ask you for a new commission but I'll have to wait until I get one. Right now I'm on the job hunt and doing part-time odd jobs here and there. I would have never guessed he was supposed to be similar to the two elf characters but now that I see the description, I can see little features of both Look forward to seeing more from you

Chromattix [2015-02-26 02:55:17 +0000 UTC]

The costume is certainly very pretty. Matches the elegant nature of this character. It's also interesting to see black hair on a character representing winter too as opposed to the more expected white. So it gets points for originality there too (although I'm sure a white haired version would have been just as cool anyway )

keelerleah In reply to Chromattix [2015-02-28 07:11:40 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I never considered how white hair would have looked. But now that you mention it, I think I'd like that look too.... even if it's a bit harder to paint.

And thanks again!
