ElfQuest Fan Art

Okay, it's just too DAMN QUIET here! I don't really have anything new ready for primetime, so I thought I'd throw something old but recently colored in just to make sure SOMETHING is posted for this month. I may have one or two more that I wouldn't be totally embarrassed to post at this point before…

Paul Carter's Jade currently in Ocean's Edge Holt run by Sammie Whitaker. This character has been in a few other holts over the years, so he might be memorable from some other sources.

A newer illo I just now finished inking; I think I sketched this sometime last year. Anyway, this is Janett Beasley's character over in Ocean's Edge Holt, merged with Crossing Paths Holt. For some reason, I'm pleased with how he turned out, maybe because he is the son of my Backstabber (named for hi…

Another older illo that I just now finished inking. Shame on me. Anyway, at least I'm working on art. This is Janett Beasley's character in Three Holts Alliance, which sadly has folded. The good news is that the illo can still be featured in the Rogue section in World Paths and Janett will receive a…

Sweet, guy-next-door sort of character of mine that's been in a few holts over the turns. Orphaned once again recently. Maybe one day he'll find a new home.

One of my characters that's been around for a long time, recently drew him for a holt but he's now orphaned. Sigh.  Not sure I'm entirely happy with it, but I needed the distraction from the hell that I've been through lately.

Another really old illo, this one about two years after the Poison on her throne illo. I thought I'd throw this one in to hopefully show progression in my art style with this one character. Quicksilver (I think Steff Corbitt's character) and Shadowlion (John Sebok?) encounter Poison for the first ti…

Per Berit's request, here is Poisonthorn's mother, Poison, of Whisper Vine Holt in Shadow Vale. It's really ancient, but I worked hard on this thing and Blackfawn was really pleased with it. Poison was the Winnowill of Whisper Vine, responsible for a lot of attacks and mysterious vanishing of holtma…

Just thought I'd post another illo while I had access to a decent scanner. If time permits, I'll try and do a couple more. This is Goldenrod and Bisonreader of Three Holts Alliance. They are a father/daughter team that tends to the bison herd. Both are friendly and quite muscular (well, I tried to s…

Nutmeg is a rockshaper, Quillfeather is a metalshaper. Together they are freeing metal deep within the stone in a local tunnel. Eventually Quillfeather will shape the freed metal into something useful for Three Holts Alliance.

Nutmeg is Jonnee Smalling's character, not hard to guess Quillfeather is…

Work in progress - just need to add border and background. This is Chieftess Sorrell's character in Oceans Edge Holt run by Sammie Whitaker. Leetrah is a wanderer from Three Holts Alliance and a pure blooded glider. Upon her arrival in OEH, she Recognizes my heavily wolf blooded wanderer...poor thin…

Again, an older illo but one I am not too embarrassed to post. This is Hurricane of the Surf Riders in Shadow Vale Holt. Hurricane is the character of Sasha Fuentes Watt. Shadow Vale Holt is run by Laurey Sebok, and I believe it has folded (darn it!).

**SPOILER ALERT** for Chieftess Sorrell

This illo is a work in progress. It is a newer drawing done shortly before I badly sprained my wrist. I just need to add border and background, maybe a bit more shading in the face.

Emoriana is Sorrell's character in Three Holts Alliance, Stone Tower faction…

Silverleaf and Impalaswift have little in common and want little to do with each other until they discover they are both passionate about rain - or more importantly - dancing in the rain. This is an old illo, but I still like it.

Silverleaf (Laura Antley) and Impalaswift (me) are over in Windhowl H…

Meet my Garpike. The name should say it all. If not, think lots of really big, sharp teeth and the attitude to back them up. If you see one in the water, stay out unless you're a masochist, one of those idiot Animal Planet nature show hosts, or just plain stupid. Garpike is every bit the troublemake…

Character from Windhowl/Bluereef Holt. Has an obvious affinity for crows and always has at least one in his company. It's an old illo but it's something that isn't too embarrassing. I think two pens died on me because of the black on black on black coloring.

Crow is Aliene Bonner's character in Win…

Krissy Hutson's character in Windhowl Holt, Bluereef faction. Very friendly, quiet, loves to explore.

Windhowl Holt/Bluereef Holt is run by Annette Pschirrer.

You know them, you hear them, they're everwhere - they're the GOSSIP BRIGADE! They know your every move and they're incapable of keeping a secret. These three are the worst offenders and spend much of their time talking about others in the holt. The illo is another golden oldie, but again, why not.
…

My character Rivereagle in Oceans Edge Holt, run by Sammy Whitaker. This guy is loads of fun to work with. He's never had any other elfin contact beyond his family, so he's learning all sorts of new things, and not in the easiest way. He tried to kill another elf's horse but wound up on a wild ride…

Long story behind this one. Rainshy is a reluctant healer, turning instead to combat and warfare. She was in the Eyrian's mountian holt when she was captured by the secretive Winnowill-esque healer/antihealer Nightbringer. The two instantly know about the other...and are out to destroy each other.

…

Linn Standal's character in Shadow Vale Holt, run by Laurey Sebok.

Jaegertalon, my heavily wolfblooded wanderer in Oceans Edge Holt, doesn't do well when confronted with change or new things. He still doesn't understand other elves, having known only his family all his life, and wants little to do with them. He doesn't play well with others (would probably run with…

Old but still okay. I think this was one of my first "sea based" drawings. Quickshimmer (Kami Springer), son Kelpmane (me/Kami), and Swifteel (me) of Shadow Vale Holt, the Surf Riders faction. Quickshimmer and Swifteel are inseparable and had been lovemates long before they Recognized. After his nie…

Paul Carter's character in Oceans Edge Holt (run by Sammy Whitaker).

In Shadow Vale Holt, there is a faction much like Blue Mountain called The Eyrian. In order to bond with the giant birds, leave the mountain, hunt, explore, or fight, you MUST be a glider. All others are considered "Groundlings" and must remain in the Mountain. No matter what abilities they may othe…

Another family protrait for Shadow Vale. This features Reedwood (Shannon Menhart) and her cubs Cloudclimber (Miriam Loomis), and incorrigible flirt Echo (Shannon Menhart). Dad's missing because I didn't have a CIS or reference illo of him at the time.

More old stuff. This was done for Shadow Vale Holt and features Laurey Sebok's main characters and offspring. Nightwish the firestarter is the mother of Blackfawn the warrior. Blackfawn is the mother of the gentle Fox, and Fox is the mother of the young Holly. I thought it would be fun to draw a gro…

SPOILER ALERT FOR CHIEFTESS SORREL!

Illo for Chieftess Sorrel's story in her holt, Three Holts Alliance. This is Sorrel's mother, Bisonhide, and the story tells of a sad past. Bisonhide was captured and tortured by another elf. The evil elf and crew lived in stone huts, so I tried to draw something…

Old illo I did for Shadow Vale Holt (run by Laurey Sebok). They had a sudden outbreak of kids (fledglings?) among the Eyrians, so I thought I'd draw them together, exploring the outside world for maybe the first time. Imagine being surrounded by butterflies and lighning bugs (fireflies). The Eyrian…

Troll mump Mugwart has befriended elf captive and slave Twilight. When Mugwart realizes there are other elves loose in the troll caverns, he seeks them out and asks them to please take his friend with them. Story illustration for Shadow Vale Holt, story written by Jen Seago.

I don't recall offhand…
