:Commission: Pictish Troll by Sparkyopteryx

:Commission: Pictish Troll

Sparkyopteryx

This is an example of what I normally do with detailed inked commissions; I did this one two years ago but I think it would still be appropriate as an example. The commissioner wanted a Celtic female troll decked out in Pictish woad tattoos and gave me full artistic freedom with it. Even to this day, it was one of my favorite commissions I've ever done. This photo was used as a pose reference for it: http://mjranum-stock.deviantart.com/gallery/\#/dyx6kh Many other miscellaneous references were used, i.e. for her spear, tattoos and horns, just so I could make absolutely sure they were accurate.

I am always open for commissions of this type; just check out my front page here for rates. I'm very flexible too. Just note me and I can give price quotes.

Done in Staedtler black pigment liners and a blue Micron pen. Art is © me, subject is intellectual property of her owner.

    I know the person this was done for but never knew who did it. Gorgeous piece!

      Ha, really? Small world after all. She was an awesome commissioner too, and the only commissioner I had that asked me to develop a character from scratch with only a few simple guidelines.
