Eli/Elias art
Not mine, found these at Deviantart. I thought it was interesting how Eli is alternately depicted as Elias in some of them.
There's a lot more from the artist here: http://michaelpinocchio.deviantart.com/ ... 8/vampires
As a warning some of the other work is NSFW if you're browsing at work.

Re: Eli/Elias art
Some really great ones.It's amazing how the same pic can seem innocent and spooky at the same time.That's Eli I guess.Poor little thing.
Please Oskar.Be me for a little while.

Re: Eli/Elias art
Eli's vampire form:
This is exactly how I picture him after reading that passage from the book.
It is probably the best depiction of book's Eli.

I like those fan arts that try to represent the book's characters from the imagination, instead of just draw the actors from the movie.
PS: Perhaps she looks to pretty here, I think her face actually gets "monstrous/uglier/older" when she is fully "vampire" like in the basement scene.

Re: Eli/Elias art
According to Lacke, Eli was quite beautiful also in "full vampire mode"...
But from the beginning Eli was just Eli. Nothing. Anything. And he is still a mystery to me. John Ajvide Lindqvist

Re: Eli/Elias art
To me Eli looks beautiful all the time.Even when he has his "old" face on.He has an inner beauty that you can't hide. Although I might not be able to tell Eli directly,in case she's hungry.

A child.

little child's face imaginable, framed by a veil of
black hair. A pair of enormous dark eyes met his.

Re: Eli/Elias art
Yeah but that was after the attack, in that very same scene:
The child got up on all fours, cat-like, preparing to lunge. The face changed
as the child drew back its lips and Lacke could see the rows of sharp teeth
glow in the dark.
Anyway, I think Eli's "old face" when he is a vampire or when she is "weak" would look more like a corpse than an old woman since she does not grow old, as Oskar described it, an Holocaust survivor, these vampires probably die dramatically as a decomposing body if they do not feed, so an "old / weak / dying" Eli would be like a corpse / mummy of a beautiful 13 years old boy, rather than a 200 years old "woman"
