Hello Everyone,
Recently I came upon the idea to use the Aasimar race in Volo's as a way to play a Dragoon ala the PS1 Game The Legend of Dragoon.
But, now that I am looking to build a character model, I am conflicted as how to do so. Initially I was happy to build a dragoon-alike using Warhammer parts, but now I am actually pretty happy to play a for-realises Aasimar, because it would give me something in-universe to care about for once; normally I don't really like the DnD fluff or races.
However, I don't think I can do an Aasimar justice, weird as that sounds. IF I were to build a Dragoon, i would go crazy with putty and build a whole thing to look like a video game model. It wouldn't be perfect, but it would be representative. With an Aasimar though, i'm kind of left with no inspiration. The parts I have are less than ideal, and I have no real idea as to where to push them towards. It might just look like... a bunch of stitched-together Warhammer parts.
I know this is a weird ask, but it ties into my earlier post on anhedonia and my need to feel happy again, beacuse i WAS excited to play this character, and now I can't stand the idea of it one bit.
What should I do?
(Not that anyone will recognize said parts, but I was going to use Dark Eldar Scourge parts and High Elf White Lion parts, which lend themlsves -slightly- more to a dragoon look because they're rather high-fantasy)
