Description
This is my sculpt of SkekSil, the skeksis Chamberlain.
SkekSil was known by his fellows, more than anything, for the whimpering sound he used to make whenever he either had an idea, or was scheming something...or even when he simply wanted to unsettle them!
His chanting murmur drove the others crazy, and his cunning ways set them all in warning against him.
However troubles SkekSil tended to have with his fellows, he always managed to ellicit some kind of sympathy, if even a short duration one, from the others, with honeyed words and sweet manners. Through his words and his cohersing ways he usually got what he desired.
His duties were as a secretary in chief to the empire, supervisor of economy (for which he managed the wealth SkekShod the Treasurer hoarded) and time by time he had acted as a diplomat, whenever the times required so.
Being second in line to the throne after the decease of the ruling Emperor SkekSo, SkekSil attempted to seize the scepter of command, which led to a confrontation with the powerful and brutal Garthim Master SkekUng.
Being physically weaker, SkekSil lost and was ravaged, stripped off everything he had and banished, while his enemy gained the throne and the scepter.
His cunning ways drove him to plot, even in his worst moment, against this decrete, and he regained his position in time, after many wanderings, clad in rags, pursuing his way back to the Castle: two live gelflings...but that is another story...

He is made of Cold Porcelain clay and cloth, and painted with acrylics...every detail pit into him and his fellows (whom you'll see in latter pictures) were completely made by hand.

ENJOY!

DISCLAIMER: I do NOT OWN any of the skeksis or other Dark Crystal characters. Their races, likenesess and particular personalities and demeanor were created by, and are property of Jim Henson,Brian Froud, Frank Oz and the many people who worked in the making of The Dark Crystal (1982)*
