Elfquest Dolling Thread

Another one of Cinder

Got once more inspired that elf masquerading as human. I reckon a tribe or clan of 'em'd go by Changelings as a whole. Dunno what her name is tho,nor her babe.

@Prism So many new goodies, they all look amazing!!

I was going through my elves and found two Wolfriders that I had named a while ago named Mooncrest (female) and Firemane (male), who are Nightflash's parents. Also, maybe how they'd be integrated into the canon story.

Here's Nightflash...


I now have him down as Tynami's dad, hence the Firemane name... definitely would be a redhead. 

Any of ya'll want to take a crack at the designs?


Also, realized I need to design Ribbon and Shelldust's dolphins, Jeweleyes's/Goldfawn's wolf. So many things..


Still working on this...

Finally! For Katkombs.Firemane,Mooncrest and Nightflash

Redid colors on Pretty Pixie. Plus decided that Firemane needed to stay sexy and bare chested.

She's Hunt. Feral,wild and pure instinct. Her clan doesn't remember the Wolfriders,they barely know how to send and Recognition is almost unknown. They're essentially werewolves with some marauding going on.

Nice new pretties.

Love the designs you did for Firemane and Mooncrest!! Adorable that you added Nightflash in there too!! Thank you so much for them and you'll definitely be seeing something from my end soon.

Hunt turned out really cool looking! I think my favorite part is the wrist wraps... not sure why, but they just stick out for me.

I've tried several versions of these two... especially in this pic Mooncrest looks like Katy Perry I think, lol.

 Mooncrest, I just love the opposite top and bottom on elves, makes them flow more I guess. I may need to go back and do some of these it it lets me, her hair is too dark on all of them.
 Firemane, not sure about the tattoo, the option was there and I couldn't resist

2 more of the Hunt girl. Don't have a name for her.

I'm really beginning to love Hunt girl's colors!! She's beautiful!

Some new elf sprites... slowly making my way through them

Love the colors on the little cutie Prism.

I'm behind badly here ... best will be to do this in bits and pieces. Please no one will feel ignored if their dollz are not mentioned in the first or second post. I promise to work my way through all that many-originated imaginative awesome mess! (freely interpreted EQ quote ^^)


Awww... Waterleaf and Meerschaum are wonderful, Prism! *happy dance* I've missed to comment on them when I was busy with hatching for EEQ. Very fitting in look and mood. Waterleaf - young, shy and pensive ... I love how you've incorporated the flower design. Meerschaum - young, joyful and light-hearted ... and very elegant in the second version. OrCs being dolled by others means gaining life for me. Thank you for giving love and life ... thank you for this gift. *hugs*

That one-shot-scene of an Fire Elf had quite an impact on you, Prism. You've created so many versions of YOUR Fire Elf ... and Cinder gained character with each doll. More substancial then the very ethereal elemental being from FQ. Almost like a bridge child with another elf tribe.
The Dark Fairy and Pixie dollz have  a very elemental mysterious touch. You've captured this "hum as beings of fire" trait. The Magical Elf and Pretty pixie show the colors of lave, sulfur and ashes and turned out very different in mood. Somehow they have the vibe of a dangerous crazy clown. I like how you've mimiced flames with leaves and gave her skin a magma veins pattern.
I love that "dragonrider" Fire Elf - very earthy and somewhere between creepy and mischievous. Making her hair great like ashes turned out to be a great idea - as effective as surprising. It's a nice contrast against her "fire flowers" and generally yellow-red appearance. The glowing flowers and mushrumes work well to enhance the impression of a firey environment. Fire in water ... you've even found flames in the mermaid maker, Prism! Not sure whether I like the plans she has  - pure evil or major prank!
New ME Cinder looks more harmonic ... more "flamy" and more pleasant. Still loves to play with fire! ^^ This time her hair mimics the "cool" blue heart of some flames. Last not least an unusual take on the Evil Evie maker - veins of ember and some flames licking ... and a leaf that mimics a magically nurtured flame. Cinder is changeable like fire itself.

(will continue tomorrow)

I just realized I forgot to 3D these two... just finished them!

A day or a week ... no difference in elfin terms, right?

Back to Prism - there's a very well succeeded Changling who needs love, too. She's so close to her FQ inspiration. It's like you've planned to illustrate manifold facets with the different dollmakers ...
... a lonesome sad human girl - who might be an ancient lost elf.
... a strong and knowing wise woman - helpful or dooming depending on the situation
... a sweet and caring lifebearer - going on no matter what happens
... a true spirit of nature
I love how she turned out. Her name ... one of her many secrets, I guess. The Humans give them names - in my village this one is known as Grethlin. And her tiny boy goes as Lil' Pit by now.

One who hides ... adepts - doing her best to merge with the Humans. And the total opposite - a feral elfess embracing her wolfblood. The middle one on the Pixie maker looks even blood-crazy ... with a rediculous touch. This hammer goes not exactly well with mot of the elves in my eyes. Blood is the key word when I look at the second PP version ... Hair color and leathers scream blood, hungry glance and fierce expression. The fur collar, sleeves and  leg wraps can easily count a real fur. I agree with Kat - those wrist wraps are perfect!
Hunt is a strangely fitting name for her ... it rings right. In case you look for something else: Bloodroot or Bloodmane or simply Wolfess ...

It's great that you took a crack on Firemane and Mooncrest, Prism! Especially your first mer-elfy take has a strong appeal. I love Mooncrest's delicathy and Firemane's Elder vibe. This beard suits him and I totally buy the scales "pants". Little Nightflash is such an adorable addition. Very good translation to the pixy maker - I agree about Firemanes bare chest. ^^


(yup, there are more comments to come)

Been going through my elves and realized I already had a cat elf (Marcenia) so Li is going back to what she was originally. 



Edit:
Some new edits: 

I couldn't decide which hair I liked best so I saved them all  She has both stripes and shaped them off once she met up with a healer to 'blend in' more. Once I decide on the hair I'll make a non-striped one.

Some more 3Ds... I've got a storm rolling in so won't be able to get to them all today.

As promised:
This is the direct saved version, the edited fix will be on her page once I get them all made.

I never thought I'd make these, but I couldn't resist when I saw the outfit for Brin.
Coral
Kit
These two were from Shadow Paw Pride 

Sunflower from Shadow Wolf Holt, I was her VERY briefly

Brin from ElfTanner's World of Danen

To come: The rest of the World of Danen: Onah, O'Mynn, Freeskin, Jewel, Mist, Raintouch, Raithlyn, Raven (maybe two of her) and Trisley (hope to find her Grace).

I really miss tektek...

Centuries if not millenia spent in the Palace has their effect on immortal elves,who want for nothing. Every now and then,there's Recognition and new life. Life that changes somewhat. Like her. She's what I'd call a Neo High One,born,bred and reared in the Palace,wanting for nothing,completely adored and doted on. She's also completely bored,restless and spoiled beyond all hope. Ancestry is who knows? Some Sun Villager, a little Wavedancer,mayhap some of the new elves. She's utterly ambitious,extremely vain,shallow,fickle,more than willing to play mindgames and is a little predatory. I'm leaning on her name being Aetheryll,but open to suggestions
I like Bloodmane for Hunt and agree on Grethlin and Li'l Pit for Changelings.

'Oh, she's a sweet child. But she can't read the wolves' ways. Can't understand them. And she sees their ''strangeness'' in her mother and her tribe-mates. And it scares terribly her. The times she's run out of their camp and fled to my den, crying while Greywolf rushes after her and tries to get her to came back...'- Merheen.
 
Found a new (?) viking maker. Ended up making a what-if child of Skyfire and one of my elves Merheen. Embala is the co-creator and named her Buniq.

Small finger and eye edits.

Nice Shadowpath! Especially with those pigtails.

These dolls are so pretty! I've tried a few doll-making sites and I lose interest too fast.

More Viking dolls, sorry. It's giving me ideas for their clothes. (Maybe not for Beyond tho.)
Darkfire, female Beyond and Uli.

EEK!! All these amazing new dollz! I just love all of the Viking ones, there's so much you can do with that maker that I think elves would be perfect on it!  

@Prism I just love Aetheryll's colors!

After the storm last night I did make a few more from the World of Danen... hopefully I'll get one done tonight.
Freeskin
Jewel, she turned out better than I had hoped!

I had one other started, but I can't remember who it was now

Freeskin

I really like Freeskin's clothes. O,O very nice on hot days.
The Viking maker is really nice, it's hostile towards editing tho.

High time to get back to this - I must catch up! (always lurking ... often too tired or distracted to comment ... Sorry!)

It's always a plaesure to see the Storm Elves with mertails, Kat! The same simple color sheme but much more playful. I love the tone-on-tone pattern for her and you found the star motive for Starpearl.
Being at one with the woods ... and your solution is a Human. Ilyian truely looks like a wood spirit here. The pale-brown color scheme turned out surprisingly lovely!

Element girls! Strong contrasts on many levels ....
Red-in-red for Fire. Glowing eyes, a blazing mane, lava veins on her top and pockets of embers on her skirt. Great use of this "radiant sun" item, Kat. And of course she got a devlish touch - biting fangs and horns.
Water screams waves. Mane, skirt, adornements .. even the pattern of her top and sleeves is floating and rolling.
I love the bindi mark for them. Up for Air and Earth, Kat? *is tempted to try myself*

The Storm Triplet teamed up! They look amazing together ... and it illustrates their characters in my opinion. Lau is relaxed, watching - Elm is attentive, ready for action - Rol is ... contemplative, searching his way?

Couples! Lots of lovely couples!
Shelldust and Ribbon, tender powdry colors - the shine-through grey fits his name and she got a ribbon of course. The eldest couple is totally focused to each other. Nightflash - very flashy ^^ - and Change in a familiar style. I've always liked this brown and green combo. It's fun to see Calmwaves and Tynami together - they arte a nice couple colorwise. I especailly like his scale-style cod piece. Think it suits him very well. Great choices to create Tynanmi's generic style once again.
And you've added Tywaves! *hugs and dances* You know I like this darling - so pretty in her pearl-adorned little dress!
About her expression ... hmmm... You see where the left hands of all the males are? And at least Tynami's hand has an obvious goal - her eyes confirm the plan! Maybe Tywave is just thinking *Adults are soooo embarrassing!* Teenager ^^

Marcenia and Ravendusk complement the family group. Marcenia's design is so characteristic - She'd even identify as hersef with a merteil. ^^ And Ravendusk ... I admid that I had to look him up but now the family ressemblance with his sister shows! ^^

Tynami's family as pixies so cute. Change and Nightflash ... good to see her leg straps back! The dark red coat suits her well. Calmwaves and Tynami ... I'll say it again: They make a good couple! Nice greens going with Tynami and I just love her harlequin top! Shelldust and Ribbon ... so close to the previous pairing in color, style and vibe. Ravendask and Marcenia ... He looks amazing in those duds (for a cutie pixie ^^). And Marcenia found a dress close to her first style. Nostalgic.
Last not least your twins Aero and Fireshade - in matching clothes. Petrol suits them and goes fine with their red manes ... your preferred shade of blue, right? ^^ I like the color gradient in Fireshade's hair!

Rol and Cirrah! That's a surprise pairing ... and not so much, considering that Cirrah fits the family theme! ^^ So she is the soulmate he was called to. Black and white - thunder cloud and cirrus cloud - great contrasts making sparks fly. ^^
My Stormcaller - still so happy you've adopted him to your Storm Elves! - finally happy and relaxed with his lovely lifemate. Seabreeze is pretty in pink ... this dress gives the impression that it could transform into a mertail.
And the couple I wanted to be - Tinkertide and Starpearl. His fashion sense has improved ^^ and she has choosen green peatls tor the occasion.
