Bioshock's Sander Cohen (version 2) with Mannequin

This is my second attempt at Sander Cohen, Bioshock's resident disturbed artist. I used a different base figure for him and I also wanted to add one of his creepy mannequins that appear, and reappear many, many times in Fort Frolic. The DC Direct "Planetary" Elijah Snow base figure for Cohen was easy to paint over sine he was all white. Cohen's mannequin was made to look like he used plaster over a human body. I used a plant for the mannequin's rabbit ears, which fans of the game will understand. (Note he no longer has any arms even if he wanted to take them off). And on the plaster Sander seems to have painted little moths...creepy.

Cohen is holding a splicer mask that he repainted to his liking. He also includes a flower and paintbrush that I used Aves Apoxie and a toothpick to make. Check out those classic two-tone kicks! I think Sander would definitely wear pink. Oh and the mannequin's picture frame is also made out of Aves Apoxie. Tried to take a few moody shots with some gloomy lighting. I think they turned out nicely. Here's the breakdown of what's in the pictures:
