Sledge's 3" Hatbox Ghost

[Sledge]

Been working on this for the past few hours. Once finished I will be making a tiny hatbox, with a window obviously, to put the head in. The body will be standing next to the hat box. I also plan on finding a twig or branch around the Haunted Mansion and turning it into a cane for him. :lol:

Here is the quick sketch I did.

And here is the WIP which should be done by the end of the weekend...

Highlights will be added to make it look more like a cape, and highlights will be added to the hat as well. Then I'll add buttons to the shirt. Finally, I'll seal it before adding the face on. Took this picture with my cellphone so the colors are a little bit off.

EDIT: Scroll down for pictures of it finished.

Its going to be a popular one.

I HAAATE doing human features. I had a hard time with Hades, granted he was the second thing I've ever painted. I have a hard time with noses.

Here's an updated picture. I love the way he is looking in person, but I hate how he looks in this picture. The colors aren't as dull as it looks here, although some might argue that he should be dull colors.

Still not done yet. I've added a few details since this picture was taken. BTW, if you look at pictures of the Hat Box ghost his eyes aren't symmetrical, so the different shapes of his eyes were done intentionally here. Made things much easier too. :lol:

Opinion time. Do you think I should leave the hands as is, or should I put some dashes for skeleton fingers? Also, along the grey on the face, should I leave it as is, or should I add a darker shade of the green?

I hate doing human features too. :lol: I had a really hard time with my GMR Guide. I think you should leave the hands and grey on the face the way it is, It looks good.

Here we go. I'll make sure to post more pictures once I finish the cane and hat box. :thumbsup:

Love it! Hmm the hands might look cool skeletal, but I think they look good as is also. :)
Can't wait to see his authentic cane!
