It's a little too bubblegum colored but looks good

Is the scar already carved into him? If so, I'd just run some light brown paint on it and then rub the excess paint off, so it fills the scar.

No Adam I didn't carve it into him it's just paint but I tried to build up the paint so it looks like it's lifted up off of the skin like a real scar would be. Ok so I added some light brown/white and scraped over it to make it look ruff idk that I should have scraped over it I don't think it looks to good that way or I just did it to much I think. A small amount of scratching would have been ok but anyway does this color work better? Should I leave the pink outline I thought I made it stand out more from a distance.   |

I suppose the pink outline is okay, but I get some light brown color in the midst of it.

When I was making my Yamcha, I had this same issue man haha, I didn´t know wether to carve it or paint it. I agree with you on the lifting it up a bit, for instance these SF Sagat figure has it like that and looks great/natural.  I just painted it with my Yamcha, but tried to make it as thin as possible. If you are going for the lifting it up a bit idea, what comes to my head, is to use apoxie to make very fine lines. That will lift it and it will be easier to paint  . I did that with my Tien´s chest scar and worked just fine.  So if you do that, perhaps will be easier to paint, you would obviously need to make/use very fine lines of apoxie so it would look natural on his face.  |

Adam like some light brown on the pink outline? Juan Thats a great Idea I might try to sculpt that apoxie over what I painted already and then use my razor blade to shape it than painting it will prob be easier like u said thanks again everyone |

That scar on Sagat is called a keloid scar. I don't think anybody in DBZ has one like that... not that I can think of.

That simple. The pink outline won't look as strong when outlining a lighter brown scar. It may not replicate the exact scar you see in the pic juan posted, but the pink outline gives it some reality and will look much better than a full-pink one. |

I think I'm going to smooth it out a little bit more but I think this looks a little better. I made the pink more of a purple and did what u said Adam and went with a darker brown. I hate that sometimes u see bardocks scar real red almost like an open wound and then other times it's flesh colored like u would expect it to look but either way I think I have kinda mixed those to styles. I hate that I keep posting so many pics of just his scar but I really think it's a big part of bardock as a character.  |

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I don't like that change at all. A single color would be so much better. Right now it looks infected.

Interesting. It looks ok for what it is, but I don't see the light brown in the middle. I was thinking this would be better (I went to a mid-dark brown instead) but you can keep it the way you have it.  |

Well, what I did wasn't very hard. You cut the scar and then use a lip color of paint, kind of pink, kind of brown.  |

It's like a red brown now that you mention it. Bran's method is good too, but at least you won't have to undo everything you did so far. And thanks lol

Yeah I tried doing it the way bran did by scraping it on to a pos Irwin goku head and my Exacto blade is so thin and sharp that u couldn't even really see the mark and then when I tried to make it wider my hand slipped and well let's just say it didn't end well. I guess if I had a thicker blade that would help. But like u said Adam if I just do what u did I want have to start all over I'll just need to add more paint.

. I did that with my Tien´s chest scar and worked just fine.
