"Earthman" by Shelby Blair

SF&F Picture 3 out of 22 by Shelby Blair

SciFi and Fantasy Art Earthman by Shelby Blair


	Here is my rendition of an earthman or gnome from The Silver Chair in The Chronicles of Narnia. I drew him one night and it nearly drove me crazy because my computer kept freezing up!! I didn't really want to make him green, or really I wanted a more muted color, but nothing seemed to turn out right. Photoshop 7 with Wacom tablet.

12 Jul 2005	Kim Schoonover	Loading... he's cute... but why is he so unhappy? (I haven't read those or anything) neh. first comment give you a plate of cookies Shelby Blair replies: "Well, he (and his people) are all sad because they're enslaved by the evil witch, but they don't know that... they just know they're sad. You should just read it! It's a great book! Thanks for the comment!"
18 Jul 2005	Andy Guest	Loading... Ha ha, his two fingers and toes are very cool, makes him look very creature-ish... not just like a little green human if you get my meaning. I like it a lot! Very nice. Shelby Blair replies: "Yes, they are very creature-ish indeed! Thanks for stopping by! "
20 Jul 2005	D. 'Yolaron' Hendrikson	Loading... That looks a lot like what I pictured the Earthmen to be! well done. Now all he needs is a lamp and a hundred folowers... Shelby Blair replies: "Yeesh! i have to do 100 more? LOL I'll get started on that! Thanks for the comment!"
20 Jul 2005	Sarah K. Billson	Loading... Aww! He's so sad and cute! And he's pretty much exactly the way I pictured some of the Earthmen to look like. Great work, Shelby! I like the green, don't change it! Shelby Blair replies: "I'm glad you like it! Thanks for stopping by!"
