Reference and inspiration from this :

I wanted to give credits to the artist as I usually do, however unfortunately this is a pretty popular artpost from a long while back, and so has circulated around the internet uncredited quite a bit. I did try a reverse image search but it didn't yield any favorable results. If anyone knowns please feel free to DM me and I'd be sure to give credit where it's due.

Now, explaining some artistic choices:

I wanted to draw an elsamaren version of this piece because the girls in it reminded me of elsamaren look-wise.

Elsa's style is kind of based on her concept art back when they were experimenting with her looks pertaining to her role and character in the movie, when it was still undecided. I headcanon her and Honeymaren as one of those revolutionary queer and indigenous activists from back in the day who weren't afraid to throw hands (and sharper-than-normal icicles) for the sake of their causes.

There was no real reason to draw Hans here; he's just the in-canon recognizable antagonist who's pursuing someone close to Elsa she'd rather he didn't. He just fit the box here, that's all.
