Meet the first Friend of Marcus! He doesn’t have a name yet- there’s a poll to vote for one below. Once he has a name, I’ll start calling him by it. For now, I think of him as Marcus’ bearded friend.
I’ve been wanting to do a knight with armor male paper doll since I added male paper dolls to the Marisole Monday & Friends collection. I waited a while though, because armor is actually rather hard to draw. I do think knight paper dolls make great paper dolls for boys and I am trying to be diverse in my paper doll creations.
I was complaining about how boring men’s hairstyles were and then I remembered- facial hair. Mustaches, beards, goatees, soul patches- There are many fun options for paper doll facial hair. So, this guy got himself a beard.
So I have narrowed my options down to four different names. Help me decide which one I should choose by voting below. The poll is open until Sunday.

One last thing I wanted to mention- I’ve decided to do a survey of my readers about potentially opening a shop to sell my paper dolls and setting up a Patreon account for Paper Thin Personas. The survey should only take about 10 or 15 minutes of your time. If you complete the survey and include an email at the end, I will send you a “THANK YOU” paper doll within the next week.
Click here to begin the survey (Survey is currently closed.)
Right now, my plan is to have the survey open for the next two weeks, depending on the response rate. Thank you!
I’m really liking this guy’s beard. XD
Can’t wait to see him colored. ^.^
Love the beard. It’s fabulous. 😀 The armour is super cool too
I agree with Ladybug. The beard is awesome!!
I’m glad everyone likes his beard. I had a lot of fun drawing it. There will be more facial hair for the Marcus’ paper dolls I’m sure.
