Customized Muggs

When the Muggs finally came, I knew I had to do Zelthar for Sean's present, since the grumpy dark elf is one of his favourite DnD characters. (wait, you didn't know we were nerds by now?) So on came the sketchings on the white piece of plastic.
The pictures that follow are going to be different from the above picture, as that is an older character design and he has since been redone. They were also taken with my phone, so they're not the best quality.

Tada! It took me a while to get the right shade of yellow for his hair, but even this is still dark compared to the first picture.

Next came his shoulder sword-belt thing, with a tiny black shield insignia on it. You can also see a bit of the gold on his arm and leg adorning his boots.

See that tiny gold logo on the shield? That itself was painful to do, as my hand is not the steadiest. Red orbs have also been included in the gold parts on his belt, boots and gloves.

Doesn't he just look so cheerful? I'm actually quite proud that I could paint eyes to look that half-decent.

Ears and his earrings.

Face, after 2 coats of brown.

Face, after 6 coats of brown, and lines are drawn on with a marker, since I can't do a good job with paint.

A finished Zelthar! It's too bad you can't see his angry scowl with all that brown paint. But I assure you, it's there.

Just what any angry dark elf would need: a faaaaabulous feathery white coat to wear over your clothes and armour. (thanks so much to Neil for helping to make this coat for me; I just had to glue that feathery stuff on)< Voila! A pissed-off fruity drow complete! Well, almost. His finishing touches will be some swords made out of sculpey, but I think I've made Sean wait long enough for his present

His feathery goodness from the side.
This whole project wasn't as hard as I thought it was going to be, except for the occasional smudges of paint and me just being crappy at painting. But all in all, I'd make one again.
