The Paul Smith of Bustykelp fame actually still has a VERY OLD youtube channel which is still active.

Guess what the main video subject matter is...?
Yup, CGI Pixies!
(Look at the background locations used in the videos too - especially the first one.)
Good catch, Gordi!
Compare this Bustykelp video:
With this Erwin Saunders video:
I draw particular attention to the following frames:
Bustykelp "Pixie" frame:
Erwin Saunders "Wilton Pixies" frame (at around 2:57 of the video):
It looks like the exact same location to me, at different times of the year, and probably different years, right down to nearly the same camera angle.
The resolutions are different - the Bustykelp video is 360 as opposed to the doubling 720 (really quadrupling - double height times double width) of Erwin's video - but the rocks and trees match up pretty good in my estimation.
Quote:My current thinking is that either:
Erwin IS Paul Smith of Busty Kelp,
or that Erwin is actually Paul Smith's dad, and that "film-maker" Tom is probably Paul Smith!
... or it's entirely real.

Clearly, Erwin has discovered the location that Bustykelp was filming at, perhaps through torture, and has gone there himself to film actual pixies in the wild!

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
