Just to clarify, I can't promise that I will paint him as the poll winner. Just want to get some opinions.

I voted for the box art. Flesh tone, but make it VERY pale, he's getting no sun at all.

I'd vote for blue, but you probably already have a skeletor, right? :D
I have 2 sorcerers myself, and one is going to be a classic CS, the other will be Skeletor. Cuz that's just too cool.

ah crap, now it's only 50% each vote. He can't make up his mind now.


Wait. Now the vote is 75% Lich 25% box art.
Well, didja follow box art for every OTHER figure?!? Also, is the Lich the same color in the poster etc?

I'm all for reddish skin, you know, like a really dangerous sunburn.
Will also fit the clothes.

For a muscular body like his the Lich direction just doesn't seem right to me.

I voted for grey-green skin, like it is rotting. They do say he is a lich,
but he's not a skeleton, as a lich should be. Maybe he is a zombie?

He can be a pretty fresh new Lich. His muscles haven't even atrophied yet, let alone rotted. They are still wet and only now beginning to develop such an overload of bacteria, they might develop an enlightened civilization before disaster occurs and they run out of food.

I woulda went with Skeletor myself...
So it is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you can win a hundred battles without a single loss.
If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.
