That’s some halo the front one has. He must be like Supersaint — Megasaint.

“Down in the valley of the Jolly Green Giant!” Here, he’s turned nasty, and so’s the wife.

I wouldn’t have taken these creatures for mammals, but the lady’s boobies suggest that I am wrong.

With kudos to the South Park crab people.
Tree people. Tree people.
Taste like bark. Talk like people.

@Phil: I believe the botanical term is extrafloral nectaries.

I’ve actually read this book. Been trying to remember WTF the title was, and google for “book with plant people in it” just was not working.
And, there is a “sex” scene in it.

This is what happens when Ents learn metalworking.
(Yes, they walk! There’s footsteps… er, trunksteps… in the snow behind them.)

I embiggened the picture and it looks as if the foliage is a sort of leaf-anorak they wear over their brown scaly bodies. What exactly happened to Arcimboldo-guy’s left arm is a mystery. His wife thinks she’s Beyonce.

Their only weakness was… hedge clippers!

Yes, my name is Sun Drinker, and that’s my wife, Pea…um….Drinker.

I don’t know about all those leaves being clothing – their faces, hands, and forearms are all green and leafy.
Some of the leafy stuff does look to be clothes… which is actually kind of disturbing, since they look to be the same basic shape as their own leaves, and aren’t brown like they fell off on their own. Do the glowy-eyed forest idiots (who keep their leaves even in winter, despite being deciduous) strip the still-living branches off their defeated victims, transplanting them onto their own bodies for added warmth (!? [Goddammit, scifi, make sense for once]) and sugar production while training their growth with stitches?

Good points, Jerk of all Trades. Clearly these creatures must be tree-based equivalents of Ed Gein, wearing the flesh of others of their kind as clothing.

The sword held by the male?(I dont see his stamen and refuse to look more closely for it) is a bit crooked. Otherwise a masterpiece.

I don’t know; the texture of their stems says “chicken leg” to me, not “bark”…
