Title: The blue elf
Post by: Luis on December 18, 2010, 21:02:13
Just a custom I made last month - My magic forest needs more adult sized elves (it just has those dark skinned, bearded and creepy looking dwarves/gnomes :P)

He still needs a name though, any suggestions?

PS In case you're wondering, his hands are not pale - they're supossed to be gloves :P

Ooh, avatar figures would be cool!

This looks great, Luis! I didn't know they had blue heads, either.

your comments make my day, thanks ;D

kaethe

his hair is orange but it looks darker b/c of the bad lighting (I think there's two types of red hair pieces, I'm going to switch the current one for a lighter one, which suits the colors of his clothes better)

the whole outfit comes from totally different sets:

I vote for David. (¿Why? Because I like the name David.)
I want to know HOW (I always want to know how). In this case, the only mystery is “blue.”

EDIT: Oh. Nevermind.

One of my character's name who wears blue is called Luino, sometimes ... Luin is "blue" in Tolkienish elvish ... You could make his name from Latin Caeruleus (variation would be Ceruleus) is blue (of sky (caelum, caeli), but I like the root of the word "goblin"/"kobolt" from cobalt (cobaltus, gobel(t), gobelinus (hence "goblin"))

Why not calling him simply Cobalt?

Anyway, here are some ideas ... ;)

Cobalt is a really nice name for him.  ;D

Yes, I like cobalt too. It sounds old-fashioned and authentic, yet it is a reference everyone will understand!

thanks for the nice feedback, everyone :)

Gustavo, I like Cobalt or Cereleus - I too like Luin, but it kind of sounds like Luis :hmm: :P
