All of the clothing also has the black lines giving it depth and definition.
His head sculpt looks great and includes the purple hat, long black hair, white teeth, red tongue, sculpted textures, black line details, white eyes and black pupils. The jaw is not hinged, but would have been even more awesome if it were.
