I like it.
The arms are a little skinny looking... but it might just be the angle.

Hey, quick question:
Some fan-fics I've read have races like elves grow to physical adulthood at the same rate as humans. Is there anything to back this up?
Because in my mind, it makes more sense they would grow slower...

And I didn't think you did, it was just the face that I drew him with that I always imagined Rand with during his 'I gotta be hard as stone' phase. That phase of Rand and Turin's personality in this RP are really similar. And both of them are all like "WEIGHT + MY SHOULDERS = GO!"
At least Turin's not able to melt the world, thankfully. And it's very, very fun to play him that way. I've been waiting to punch Zyrith INNA FACE for some time=P

But how quickly do they physically GROW is what I'm asking.
Like, one fan-fic had a 20-something year old Nelf look like an adult, which seems strange to me.
EDIT:
I see what you're saying Hyper, but I think I'll stick to my idea.

I keep getting my mind stuck on that "RP guild" idea... It really does sound like a lot of fun for just trying random characters or screwing around..

The 110 for when an Elf is considered an adult is like how humans are considered adults at the age of 18(16 in Warcraft); but from everything we've seen, the Elves age at a normal rate, they just aren't expected to go out into the world on their own till they hit the adult age.

But how much have we seen?
And what would you say for all the other super-long-lived races like Gnomes, Dwarves, ect? (Draenei were probably made immortal, so not sure on them. Might have lived five years an average pre-Naaru...)

Since Velen was already 15 thousand at the time of the Exile, they were already an incredibly long lived race. And gnomes are suppose to be adults when they are 40 and Dwarves are around the same time. We've seen children of both of those races and they seem just like normal after all; again, it's like us here on Earth: When you hit 18 you are considered an adult and able to make your own decisions. In the world of Azeroth, and Draenor, a child can be apprenticed early and live with their master till they reach adulthood and mastery of their skills.

Yeah, but the reason for that isn't just a culture thing.
The ages of 16, 18, and 21 see significant development in the brain and body of humans.
Something like 110 seems sorta like a random number...

The Lifespans of the Creatures of Azeroth
; yes it's from the RPG's, so has to be taken with a large grain of salt, but if you notice, the ages for adulthood are varied. And for all we know the same thing happens for the races of Azeroth, but that doesn't mean there is a NE who's 16 years old but is going to act like a 3-4 year old. Look at Shandris: She was under the 110 age in War of the Ancients, but she was already a member of the lower ranks of the Priestesses of Elune and was out on the battlefield....and she had 'made' a love choice already....to one a lot older heh.

Fine, I give up.
Still just seems strange to me, and I'll stick with my way...
And yes, Adams, I have seen that lin well over a hundred times. I have no idea why you seem to think I haven't, lol.
