i ain't happy, i'm feeling glad (Custom 2-D From Gorillaz)
#1
I made a custom Taeynag of 2-D from Gorillaz! 

I have shown a couple of my figures of him here in the past, but here is a custom Taeyang I've done!

Unfortunately he is a gift for one of my closest friends who doesn't collect dolls but loves 2-D more than I would think it would be possible to love a fictional character, haha. I know she is going to absolutely treasure him. He is actually already on his way to her as we speak!

Gorillaz have been making music for 20 years now, so there was a lot of outfits to choose from, but she decided on his outfit from the Saturnz Barz music video from 2017.

I am very proud of how he's turned out! I put more work into him than any of my other customs that I've done, both in his face and outfit as well as his wig which I made myself(my first time making a fur wig myself also).

Nice work! The hair is spot on! Love those shadowed eyes!
The chain necklace is a cool detail. Barely visible in the screenshot, but yes, it's there, and looks very much like what you've created!
They're not dolls, they're action figures!

No idea who this is, but, you did a good job. How lovely to have a friend who makes you a doll of your favourite character!
(Your guy is better looking than the animated one! wink )

I really like the dark eyes, and the big, poofy fur wig turned out great, and represents the character's hair very well. Great job! I hope your friend will like him! smile

It's weird to think Gorillaz have been around for 20 years now - I suddenly feel old XD I clearly remember seeing their first video (Clint Eastwood) on TV in my teens, and all the mystery and speculation around who's behind the scenes (at least that's how it came across from the alternative music shows and magazines I watched and where I heard/read about them). Their music is not my music, so I never really followed them, but my opinion is marginal and in the minority - I would never doubt that they are good considering they are not only still around, but still pretty massively loved. Just recently I did become interested in them because they collaborated with The Cure's Robert Smith, someone whose music I am indeed interested in (The Cure is my all-time childhood favourite band <3 ). That song isn't really my cup of tea either, but I can see it growing on me given it has Robert's voice in it grin
