I had always envisioned him as a Wizard, and have decided to make his outfit a miniature version of the High Aldwin from Willow. My sister and I made a High Aldwin figure years ago, and unfortunately I had used carpenter's glue to attach his beard, and the glue has yellowed over the years. I have him standing in my work space for inspiration...
At this tiny scale I needed fabrics that would drape (or crinkle) properly, so I ended up using a rough, knobby silk for his robe. His cloak is the same fabric I used years ago for the original, and I'm using ultra-suede instead of leather for his collar. His feet are currently wrapped in plastic so I can make his shoes.
I'd really like to get him done this weekend, but there's a LOT of tiny, fiddly work ahead, plus a wig and beard, so we'll see.
