Title: And now for something completely different - Elven Warrior Queen
Post by: TomZ on December 08, 2019, 09:49:07 AM
Elven Warrior Queen

I tried my hand at something complete out of my comfort zone. Normally I hate painting figures but I must say this was fun.

No, it's a normal ant & this is the actual size of elves, but we see them through the mentally projected filter of their egos, which are much, much bigger than they are. :wacko:

All the elves I met were this size, so I would say it's a normal size ant.

Now, where's my medication again??
