THE SUIT NEEDS TO BE AS DARK AS STEVE DEMENTIA DARKNESS NOMAD WAY’S ANGST
Bearded Steeb’s head
A summary of Not So Tiny Bearded Steeb’s head:
The Captain America unmasked heads that I own. Surprisingly the one with the least wonky eyes is the one I paid full price for. The other two were bought at Toyfairs. I chose to use the last head because damn are those eyes not painted right.
I have doubles of Steve in his Civil War suit (the reason I decided to do this custom in the first place.) I ended up using Not So Tiny Injured Steeb just because his suit is slightly lighter than the none “battle damaged” version and I like the darker version. While he is harder to get (being part of a three pack) I bought him for less at a Toyfair.
I cut off the front of the fringe as it sticks out too much. After removing the paint with nail polish remover (I do have proper acetone but I find the nail polish remover is not as harsh and it works well enough on removing the paint on faces) I scrubbed the head clean and sculpted on it using the Tamiya Quick Dry Type Epoxy Putty. I learned the hard way NOT to use it when my heater is on as it becomes a sticky mess. I have used Aves Apoxie but I find the Tamiya Putty sticks to plastic easier and isn’t as fiddly once you get the hang of it. It also doesn’t sink down as easily. To sculpt I used a small awl. Some people use toothpicks but I find they go too blunt too quickly when I use them.
Sculpting the hair was a challenge as I’m not very good at figuring out how short hair falls.
Comparing the before and after.
I realized one side of the hair was bigger than the other so I added more volume to even it up.
Late night painting the skin.
Mixing up the skin tone was a pain but eventually I just settled on one. Then began the challenge of painting eyes.
I decided to have the eyes look slightly up so that Bearded Stee would forever be glaring up at people from under his brows.
Painting the hair was very annoying. This was just the base coat.
I attempted to dry brush the hair and added some colour to the lips as well as very, very lightly adding some shading to the cheekbones, under the eyes and in the brow furrows. Honestly he’s so tiny you can only really see them right up close but I will know it’s there.

Bearded Steeb is born!
(Pictured next to his base figure except I used the battle damaged version because I didn’t like him as much)
._. I spent way too much time on what I thought would be a simple custom
The Buckys are shocked by this new Steeb
>_> On closer inspection of the Infinity War poster it kinda looks like Cap ripped the silver star off the chest of his stealth suit
This wouldn’t be the first instance of Steve meticulously unpicking adornments off his uniform when he’s feeling grumpy (see also: how Steve appears with the little Avengers A on his suit sleeve at the start of cacw, and at some point sat there picking the stitches off so he could remove it, because it’s pointedly missing later on) so this seems plausible to me.
Never underestimate Steve’s seamster skills
Actually looking at it again it’s the Civil War suit but… dyed black? STEVE HAS FINALLY REACHED HIS EMO PHASE.
On seeing a more detailed shot of the poster I can even see where he’s gouged out the Avengers symbol on his shoulder.
._. I think the suit may have taken the brunt of Steve’s anger. D: He could have just painted over it?
