depictions of trolls

With the character of 'TrollBella' I feel more free to try out different looks and forms after looking at descriptions both of images and text it gives me a general idea of what i could create. Below is some examples
Troll are mostly talked about in Scandinavian folktales mostly described as: 


"trolls are described as being of any size, great or small, and of having one characteristic in common, they are very ugly, with small, beady eyes and large, bumpy noses. Their appearance is usually on the sloppy side with bits and pieces of last week's meals stuck to their stringy hair and clothes. Their ears are mostly large and floppy and dirty enough to grow rutabagas in!! They are also not too careful about brushing their snaggley teeth, which is not very obvious as they do not smile that much anyhow. (Maybe they don't brush them because their mouths are so very large.) They are also ugly and sloppy in their behavior, which is of more importance than their appearance."
