    Dark Lord of APOKOLIPS!!!!!

    Here's the be all end all of evil guys in the DCU, DARKSEID!!! I tried to reflect Mike Mignola's look and body proportions from Cosmic Odessy. The boots are 1/6th Civil War, and I used the same base sculpt as Orion for that all in the family look.



    And here's a couple pics of the original father/son good VS. evil feud that Lucas probably ripped off a bit.

    Cool headsculpt. Did you paint that body or was it like that? If you painted that you did one helluva job
    The fater/son pics are great too

                    You do a really great job of rendering Mignola Joe, I figured it out without reading your description.

                      Cool, Brian> I wasn't sure if it looked that much like it. I did change the color scheme to the JLU one.

                              Unfortunately, Orion has a bad view there, since Darkseid is going commando.
