I think Eric the Red was modeled after a cartoon character (whose name
escapes me), at the request of the buyer, so there you are.
In person the Elizabeth isn't all that blond. But hey. The guy's an
artist, not a historical costumer :) They're still worth seeing.
Beautiful work.

Umm, I did go and read the website. They are not THAT small, he
does them one-quarter scale. So the average figure would be about
15-18 inches tall. (60"=5 feet, 72"=6 feet). I think Barbie is
about 12 inches tall???
There certainly are some amazing things there, but not everything is
perfect. For example, my dear husband about had an apoplexy at his
"Eric the Red", and his coronation Elizabeth II looks really,
really, REALLY blonde, which she doesn't in easily-Google-able color
photos... So... where's the salt cellar?
