"wimpy" troll

This is Wimpy Troll. This is not his real name, just what we call him. He's really not wimpy as we understand it, either. He's just a very sensitive young troll, a dreamer. He loves to read, write short stories and poetry, and it's his aspiration to one day become a poet laureate. One of his heroes is Rabindranath Tagore. However, he happens to be born to a race whose culture do not value humanities (especially art and literature) nor do anything just for the purpose of edification. These pursuits are not seen as 'useful' by the other trolls as they don't see an immediate practical value of it, so Wimpy Troll was constantly mocked, harassed and bullied for simply being himself.

greenish blue troll???


I was trying out a new green-blue watercolour pencil I bought.  I used it to tint the page before drawing over it with normal coloured pencils.

Giant troll


Pigment ink, A5, 135gsm drawing block paper.

This was an experiment with a different style. I wanted to see how I could do something from a more design orientation. It is a simple sketch.
