Description
Here is the Troll. His design was inspired by Frederick Richardson's frog-like troll design in the Classical Volland Edition "GREAT CHILDREN'S STORIES". My Grandma used to read that book to me every time I stayed over at her house. The turn-of-the-century illustrations scared me a bit, but it was still my favorite book. She gave me that book as a gift when I graduated college. To this day it is one of my favorite things.Related content

Aw, he looks so friendly, though. I don't want the big goat to hurt him. D:

Answer me these questions three, as to satisfy my curiosity:
What is your name?
What is your medium?
Why does every artist draw trolls differently?

RobbVision In reply to The-Grim-Sleeper [2009-11-04 05:43:54 +0000 UTC]
My name is Robb
My medium ranges from ink to watercolor to digital
I think trolls are in several world wide, cultural mythologies, and are all imagined differently. there sure are a lot of varying designs huh?
