Description:
The Greenfang Druid is standing tall, scimitar raised, but waiting -- someone else is going to have to make the first hostile move. (Though that large shield, styled to look like a large leather-covered leaf, is held ready to come up to block that initial strike.) His green eyes (which match his simple, flowing cloak) are definitely fixed on whatever caused the druid to have a readied action. The long, auburn hair, held back with a simple black, leather band, could be covering the tips of elven ears, but doesn't seem to be. (This mini does strike me as one that could be human, elf, or half-elf. And, though his build does seem more masculine, this druid could just as easily be used for a male or female character.) There are a lot of small details not to be missed on this guy. You'll notice the bright green leaves attached to straps (and tucked into his belt) on his right hip. Check out the cuff of his right boot (or puttee, to be geekily accurate), and you'll notice what appear to be a string of white claws or teeth -- trophies of a kill or totem animal -- very cool. My favorite detail probably won't be visible in the image you're looking at, but when you get a good look at his dark leather armor, you'll see that it's not leather -- it's a suit of armor fashioned from wood. (Or at least it's crafted to appear so.) The black ink wash on the armor picks out the wood grain detail on each of the armor's plates. The organic and asymmetrical lines of that bit of detail suggest that this armor really was carved, not cured or forged.
