Munchkin by EricJ

Description	:	Probably the best fun I've had painting in a long time. Poor little guy just had to be beaten up a little bit. The skin is done with Elf flesh, Dark Flesh and Shadow Grey. I used a halloween makeup site to help me do the bruises and cuts (http://www.halloweendirect.com/en-us/pg_21.html). I'm quite happy with how they turned out actually. The rest of the model is based on the same colors as well. The pants are a base of shadow grey shaded with black and white, while the shoes are a base of dark flesh. I had a lot of fun on the base of this one as well. To go with the Wizard of zO theme, I had to put the road in there (which is simply freehand bricks on plasticard) with just a little trash to fit the scene.

This guy is both disturbing, and disturbingly well painted. Great job!

It hurts just to look at this little fella. In a good way though. You have really done a marvelous job on this mini. I would really like to know how you did the bruising.

Those are the best bruises as everyone else mentioned, but the cuts are also very nicely done. An excellent piece as always.
