Zandar and Zartan

Anyone who has read my bios for my dreadnoks lately may have noticed references to a Dreadnok Civil War. It all started when Zartan's schizophrenia worsened and he could no longer remain in control. The Dreadnoks were split between those who followed Zaranna; Road Pig, Thrasher, Zanzibar, Crusher, Demolisher, and Burnout and those who followed Zanya; Buzzer, Ripper, Torch, Monkeywrench, Gnawgahyde, Deathmetal, Heartwrencher, and Holeshot. Zartan meanwhile was taken into hiding by Zandar who swore to find a cure to help his brother. As the only person who never forgot Zandar, Zartan's life is in his brother's hands now. Whether its kidnapping doctors, stealing medications, or protecting Zartan from outsiders, Zandar is willing to do it all for Zartan.

 

First up is Zartan. I made this custom to fit in my Joeverse but removing his accessories he can fit in any Joeverse. After so many years of assuming other personalities Zartan's mind finally broke down and he has no idea who he really is. One personality swears the sun is bad and believes his skin changes color when exposed to light and chooses to stay covered entirely. Another personality believes he needs to be on a respirator, while yet another believes the pendant around his neck is magical and will ward off evil beings that consume his mind. Needless to say Zandar is never surprised to find a new personality emerge every day and learn what quirks this one will have.

While alot of fans see Zandar as the Dreadnok version of Snake Eyes, I see him as a Dreadnok version of Spirit and Outback. A silent weapons specialist who can stay hidden for extreme lengths of time and can kill anyone anytime.

 

Zandar stays near his brother at all times. Understandibly concerned over Zartan's failing mind, Zandar has done whatever needed to get him help. He has kidnapped doctors and brought them to help. When they couldn't help he has unceremonously taken them out back and executed them for not helping. He has stolen whatever medications the doctors suggested as well as acquired whatever Zartan's changing personalities requested. Even when outsiders have intruded Zandar has been quick to put and end to them to keep his brother safe. While keeping his brother safe and trying to find a cure Zandar has no idea about the warring Dreadnoks and no one knows which side he and Zartan will take if they ever return.

Great job, I really like the storyline and the Zandar. But to me he looks just a little too clean cut. Something about his face it says "Joe" to me and not "Dreadnok." I don't know. Sorry I cant be more helpful.

 

I think its the lack of facepaint. A friend at work said the same thing about him looking too clean cut. I think I could add face paint and arch the eyebrows a bit to give him the mean look. Thanks for checking them out.

I think Zandar looks fine as is! where is it written that to be evil you must "look" evil? its Zandars job to blend in, to not be noticed. but thats just me....i have been known to be wrong from time to time!

 

Dam fine job on both btw!

Thanks for all the compliments. I'm glad everyone likes my storyline. I have a habit of sometimes getting so involved in my stories that they begin to not make sense. And in an attempt to make Zandar more sinister without facepaint (something I usually try to steer clear of) I redid the eyebrows giving them a bit more arch. Let me know if I still need facepaint on it.
