Koza Narandza. Her people hail from the kingdom of Livenje a mountainous region known for its bitter cold, snowy skies, and ice covered peaks. Despite their tall and robust stature they are relatively weak physically owing to pockets in their bones that allow warm air to be stored helping them sustain life in such a bitter cold climate. Her people are skilled at elemental black magic specifically fire magic due to its dual benefits of providing heat and assisting them in obtaining leather from various mountain wildlife which also aids in maintaining warmth. It is a rule in her society that all clothing must be adorned with at least one bright vibrant color as it allows parties and groups to remain visible to one another in blizzard like conditions. Koza is a mage in training and struggles with properly casting spells that don't harm her peers as much as the monsters shes attempting to cast on due to her severe lack of focus and being easily distracted by random thoughts. She is passionately caring and empathetic to the point of sometimes being a bother to those shes trying to be nice to.

She was a lot of fun to make being that i tried my hand at a lot of sculpting and tried using testors paint more...think I like it best now. Her base was made using fodder of random anime figures I do know the torso is a gundam figure. The hair top of the boots the leggings and the entire sweater minus the hood part were all sculpted with apoxie, and I added a belt and some length to the skirt with apoxie. The skirt was from another anime figure. The little pieces in the hair are just jewelry pieces from a craft store. Everything was repainted and I tried a layering technique on the hair so it has a nice purple pink shine to it that has that anime layered look you see sometimes. As a note painting her tiny eyes blue was so so hard!

Her weapon is a three ring binder ring with some chain and jewelry gems. I wanted her to have a more unique mage weapon so it wasn't just a borning old staff. Then I just made a base with an old green lantern one I had around and painted it to look like she was standing on an icy snowy cliff.

Thanks for looking :).

Nice! I love original characters! I agree on using Testors, it's the most stable paint I've found so far. Citadel paints don't seem to like it though.
