Admittedly, I'm not a fan of the designs really old comic characters had, but this guy I do like, so he was fun to make.

•Sculpted most of the details. I tried foam for the belt and shoulder pads and it worked well. The headband was plain and boring in reference pictures so I segmented it to be more interesting. The hair was a good lesson; sculpt the final shape of the hair, then use a round tool (like the head of a pin) to make a bunch of small shallow indents in the clay. Keep denting it until you're happy with the texture.

•Full repaint by hand, I only left the face alone and matched the skintone for the arms and legs. It was simply one of the browns I have with a little red mixed in, painted over grey primer.

Let me know if he's missing anything, ref pics are all screwy.
