a simple custom.
the beads and trinkets among the dreads of my elder were somewhat poorly painted and hard to define. So rather than simply repaint them, i decide to trim them out and replace them with actual beads sourced from a local arts+crafts store.
i also added a wrap of sorts around one of the gauntlets using a length of elasticated string and a section cut out of one of those shower scrunchie things. screen accurate? probably not, but i think it adds more to the figure than it detracts :-)
