So, this would be my fourth installment in the Amalgam series. Think maybe I'll have finally touched on another popular character. The amalgamation of Dr Fate, Dr Strange, and Charles Xavier. Never understood why some characters had so many to them. But whatever. This guy was a ton of fun to make, and I actually tried to pull off his staff at one point, but that just wasn't working out. Actually think I got all the parts together for Speed Demon finally too, so I should be able to start on him soon. Just not looking forward to the Spikes. lol

I broke open the Hawkeye body and did a full repaint. Went back and forth on how to do the arms since in some parts of his comic they look grey, and others white. And sometimes he looks like he's wearing gloves, and others he doesn't. And then customs of him always had blue sleeves. So, I went with white. The worst part was the sculpting. I'm still not very good at it, but I tried to at least get the belt as accurate as I could. I sculpted the ankh on each boot as well, and also put some sculpt on the gauntlets to make them look more accurate. The smaller ankhs hanging off his belt I actually had to draw on, so they look a little off. Otherwise, though, I'm happy with how close he did turn out.

Recipe:

Head - DCIH Dr Fate
Cloak, Arms, and Lower Legs - MU Dr Strange
Body - MU Hawkeye
