He does seem a bit tall doesn't he? Rules? I don't need no stinkin' rules!

I've been having a hard time with making gnomes short. I've always thought of them as the same size as dwarves, and now I come to realize that they are shorter by quite a bit...
As soon as I get a chance, I'll redo it.

So, for now, #16 is going away.

Hmm - shorter? He does seem smaller all around... Is the picture from farther away now?

[manikus]

I've redone, #16 so that the gnome looks stockier.

For your viewing pleasure, in order, 14 and 16

Here is 17, to join in the fun.

Nice work, manikus! How long did it take to do these guys?

Chomsky looks like he is in Greece (or, I dunno, Mesopotamia or some other place around there)

The druid looks nice - she has a khopesh, I see. What is that creature behind her, though? A smilodon?

[manikus]

Her feline friend is a panther, sized to be on the large end of the spectrum of acceptable sizes.

I was thinking the same thing about Chomsky. I went for this look based off of his helmet which reminded me of something I had seen of either ancient Mesopotamian or Babylonian warriors.

And what do you think of Odorf? I expiremented with hairy feet, but couldn't get anything that remotely resembled what I wanted.

[Uatu]

Hmm - he looks quite hobbit-ish up close, but perhaps his feet are a bit small (from far away you can see them). Of course, Tolkien may not have specified big, hairy feet in his novels, so your image may be correct in actuality (I am working from my preconceived notions of hobbit-ness)

[manikus]

His feet are pretty big, about 15-20% longer in relation to his legs than for a human. It's hard for me to make them larger without distorting them, and then I'd have do touch-up work in photoshop, and I don't wanna.

[Uatu]

Ah - well, the picture is small itself, so maybe they are bigger than they seem to me. (A foot closeup might be good... ha ha, just kidding, no need to do that...)
