"The Troll Witch was inspired by the fantastic Brian Froud’s front cover illustration from the book ‘Trolls’ by Brian and Wendy Froud. We created her with the blessing and guidance of the Froud’s and she stands as a homage to Brian’s work. Photo taken in Brian & Wendy’s garden, where the Troll Witch feels very much at home."
I don't think I've ever seen a better recreation of Froud's aesthetic than this figure from Elfenwild. He was a huge influence on those of us that grew up back in the 70s and 80s. To this day his design work for the Dark Crystal defines my mental image of what magic circles should look like.
