Nut brown has an actual definition though

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/nut-brown

http://www.dictionary.com/browse/nutbrown

I'm not surprised by the decision but saying it's correct would be a stretch

Interesting.

In regency romances, nut-brown is sometimes used to describe the skin tone of someone who spends a lot of time outdoors (riding, hunting, etc.) as opposed to a lot other people of the upper echelons, who are very pale from staying indoors and being protected from the sun when they are outside.

But, I have no idea how it fits into the context of Artemis Fowl.

Yeah, I used to be called as brown as a nut, back in my outdoors days. I always took it to mean tanned. THese days I'm more pale as an almond.

Words are weird that way, I guess. When I hear someone described as "brown as a nut" I imagine a tanned white person too. But someone having "nut brown skin" I imagine as dark(er) skinned.

I always think of 'little nut brown hare' and that's pretty much the end of my visualizing humans at that point

Yeah, my first thought was my Italian coworker. Her family is Sicilian and she gets so dark in the summer that people tend to think she's Latina.
