... it's a lion >:3 >:3 >:3

Sort of...

ANYWAY remember how I was asking about a tan EB N a while back? Well this is what that was for. See, some time ago I decided my doll heard needed yet another terrible asshole in the form of a human version of Scar/Taka from The Lion King. Technically this fucker is an AU version of him I did for a friend's D&D campaign and goes by "Taka" (after a psion spoiled his birthname to everyone, before that he was going by various aliases), but he's still a sassy asshole who gives no fucks and hates his brother.

But yeah, I got his body, wonder how the fuck that was tan, and decided what the hell I was going to use him as an excuse to give vinyl dye a try. After weeks of loosing god know how many brain cells to the fumes from that and dull coat, I rooted and faceuped him. The dye was okay btw, but still kinda wears away on his joints and whatnot. Next time I'll try a different brand.

Anyway, have some pics. I just threw a bunch of random crap I thought looked cool on him

Apparently, dressing him as some sort of guerrilla/warlord thing worked all too well.

My dolls enjoy weapons far too much...

Get out of there, cat. You are not a telephone pole. You definitely don't support communication and light for people.

AAAAAAND then I stuck him in Designer Cruella's stock, because it was both ironic and he pulled it off far better than he should've

Pretty sure this isn't what Disney intended...

ANYWAY might as well have that to break my silence.

Wow, he looks much darker than my tan. And he does look great in the dress.

Yep, because I pretty much drowned him in vinyl dye. I wish he came that color because it would've saved me a lot of grief and fume inhaling, but alas he was originally just as light as any other Volks tan.

There is something about a dude with a pointy beard in a dress that just.. makes me want to hug him. XD lol I love his outfits!

Ooooh you dyed him? Awesome. He's actually the color Luc should technically be :P I need to look into doing something about Luc's skin color.

He is so awesome! (makes me want to try dying an obitsu... cept it would surely end badly, with myself coming into contact with more of the pigment than the dollieh!)

That's one of the coolest figures I've seen in a while! I love the whole guerilla/warlord look too. You immediately get an impression of his character and personality from it.

Nice work, and on that note, back to parenthood for me! :lol:

You did a great dye job on him! I agree with Mlatch221, you immediately get idea of who he is from his look.

He looks really cool, both as guerilla leader and Cruella de Vil! From what I've heard dying vinyl seams a bit tricky, but if it can look this good maybe it's worth a try.
