Elves (Drow, Noble, and Wood)

Post by thrash »

Today me, my mom (lalande), and my girlfriend (honeydew) had a contest to see who could make the coolest looking custom elf.

Honeydew and I both designed our decals on the computer, while lalande drew hers on paper with paint and ink, scanned it, and then printed out a decal.

All hairpieces, the wings, and the tail are custom made out of sculpey.

Who do you guys think made the best one?

The decals are a nice piece of work, and I like how the blue turned out on the drow. I think as custom figs, they look fantastic. The hair, the decals, the choice of fig parts. My only nit pick aside from not being what I think of elves is that the figs look so nice, the playability just isn't there. I'd be afraid to ruin their hair or wings. As far as a custom job though, you nailed it. Grade A custom dude :)

I'm not going to choose one and tear your family apart :wink: , I think they all look great! I've never seen someone draw a decal by hand before; that's just phenomenal! Again, Thrash, I love your use of the blue for the Drow, and HoneyDew, your hairpiece and those ears are awesome!
