Cotton, the mute pirate and his mouthpiece bird.

I need to fix some of the paint that much I can tell from the pics. My work area is very poorly lit and I miss a lot of paint job details until I take a figure out into the light. I need to fix the belt and add an actual belt-buckle.

What do you guys think? I think he reads well-enough as the character but not completely.

So here's the figure-

Finally, a Cotton figure!

I can't wait for Zizzle to release him at retail.

Okay, I think the beard needs to be whiter and he needs some kind of material (shirt/jacket/sash) hanging off his middle.

The actor is in his sixties (or seventies) so he should be scrawny-ish.

I think that's a Ben Kenobi head, but which body is that?

Nice work so far...

I would love to see an official figure but at the rate the Zizzle line is going... I doubt we'll see him.

Kenobi head, Heavy Duty bandana with a bit of sculpey to fill it out.
It's a Capt. Jack torso (with sculpey added to the vest) and upper arms. Recondo lower arms. Tai Huang lower body.
A rubber band and part of a POTF2 Emperor robe for the sash.

I like him. I can't think of anything that needs improvement (besides articulation ;)), he looks about like what I'd expect a Zizzle release to look like.
