Fun Facts About Elsa!
A Royal Hairdo Like No Other
Did the artist know that Elsa’s hair is a marvel of animation technology? In the movies, she has over 400,000 individual CGI strands on her head! This is why her signature French braid looks so voluminous and textured. When coloring her hair, one might try using different shades of platinum and pale yellow to capture that incredible depth and volume.
Not Always the Hero?
It is hard to imagine, but in the early development of the story, Elsa was written to be a villain! She was originally inspired by the Snow Queen from Hans Christian Andersen’s fairytale, meant to be dramatic and scary. Fortunately, the story changed, and she became the misunderstood and powerful protector we adore today. This duality makes her a fascinating character to color – she possesses both intense power and a gentle heart.
The Bridge Between Worlds
Elsa is more than just a Queen of Arendelle; she is the “Fifth Spirit.” This means she serves as the magical bridge between the human world and the spirits of nature (Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind). This connection to nature offers a great opportunity for the artist to incorporate elemental backgrounds – raging waters or autumn leaves – behind her portrait.
Coloring Tips for Your Elsa Masterpiece
- Mastering the “Ice” Look: Ice is rarely just plain white. To achieve a realistic, crystalline effect on Elsa’s magic or her ice palace, the artist should blend varying shades of cyan, teal, and soft lavender. Leave small white spaces in the center of the snowflakes to mimic light reflecting off the ice.
- Adding Texture to the Gown: Elsa’s dresses often feature sheer fabric and sequins. One can replicate this by using colored pencils for the base of the dress and going over it with a metallic gel pen or a touch of silver glitter glue. This creates a dazzling contrast between the soft fabric and the sparkling embellishments.
- Creating Contrast with Warmth: Because Elsa’s color palette is dominated by “cool” colors (blues, whites, silvers), the picture can sometimes look flat. To make the character pop, ensure her skin tone has warmth. A soft application of peach or pink on her cheeks and nose will make her face glow warmly against the frosty, cold background.
