"Black Dwarf of Narnia" by Matthew Davidson

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 2 out of 14 by Matthew Davidson. ←Previous - Next→


	Called the black dwarfs because of their dark hair, these guys are described as being a bit more aloof and untrusting than their red kin, and more likely to go bad. As in Middle-Earth, the Narnian dwarfs are excellent craftsmen and I tried to show a love of detail and embellishment in the costume. The association of a colder climate made me think of a sort of 'Eastern Bloc' costume design.
