Ganondorf, also known as the Great King of Evil, is the primary antagonist of the majority of games in the Legend of Zelda series. Ganondorf was born a member of the Gerudo; as the only male member to be born in a hundred years, Ganondorf is made either the King of the Gerudo or the Guardian of the Desert, depending on the game. He often possesses the Triforce of Power, in contrast to Link's Triforce of Courage and Zelda's Triforce of Wisdom.

So, the base is 100% ML movie Drax. All armor and hair is sculpted, and the cape was treated with several things to give it a rigid, dark feel. I took liberties on the armor but based it on his Twilight Princess appearance (only slightly). All paint was Testors and every bit was painted.

I hope you didn't take it as a criticism! I just assumed it was enamels because it was Testor's and usually when people say Testors, they mean enamels, not because it doesn't look good, I think you did a great job

Haha no, I don't get offended easily =P While it's not nearly as good as a lot of the stuff on here, I'm happy with it for the most part (I wish I hadn't accidentally gotten some gloss in my paints, or did the experiment with a top layer of transparent purple on the armor, but I love how it turned out overall, especially the hair). Besides, I'm always up for learning how to make better figures, so a little criticism wouldn't hurt anyway. But speaking of which, the work I did on this figure really influenced my Cyborg contest entries; sculpting the armor helped on one and the mixing paints helped for both, and Ganondorf was the first of my figures to see a dremel, so he was practice for a lot of new techniques. Plus I finally figured out how to apply a wash so it didn't run into the wrong section of my figure, so my second entry has an immaculate paint job (the first entry has a choppy wash on the hair and it also bled into another part, which was hard to fix and still didn't quite turn out right).

But yeah, long story short, I wasn't offended by anything you said, I'm always open to comments on my stuff =P thanks for your comments, as well

Very cool Custom. Totally transformed from the base fig! This must have been a double challenge if you were using Testors Enamel paints. I used Testors on a Wolverine Custom once and it took very long to dry and lose it's tackyness. I find acrylic paints to be a lot easier to work with and faster drying. Props for getting a solid paint job w enamels!

Thanks! I don't think I have any enamels, I was using mostly Testors Model Masters Acryl, but I have some older Testors paints and I think some gloss paints got mixed in because I lost the card for which paint is which (they were in an unmarked tray with a mini-palette) and lots of the colors have a flat and gloss version side by side D: but hopefully that won't happen anymore; my MM paints are labeled and I got a new set of Citadel paints and a few jars of Tamiya (primary colors + silver) so any figure after the Cyborg Science Fair entry I already have in should have better paint =P but again, thanks
