Ah... this was way too easy!!! Just take the Wind Blitz Batgirl, and do a repaint!!
Black bodysuit, metallic yellow boots, gloves, and inner cape, and shiny metallic blue on her outer cape and cowl!!
Now you wan't have to wait for the "right" kenner one!!
Calender Girl
I saw this episode for the first time, the custom bug hit me, and Boom there she is!!
She's a Princess What's Her Name (from Earth Worm Jim), and took about 4-5 hours. Her hair had to be added, as were the cuffs on her gloves. I decided I prefferred the halloween costume, simply because I've got so many "black dressed" figures. (Plus I got to make a cool pumpkin bomb!) Shades of the Green Goblin!! Her clothing is pumpkin, with yellowish raised detail, and redish orange detailing. she's perhaps JUST a tad taller then I'd prefer, but then batman doesn't wear pumps, and most models are tall, right? ;))
He looked really interesting when I first saw him, and a year later I saw another one!! Some McFarlane-izing
to his paint job, and he looked great!! And for $4 on clearance, you can't go wrong here!!
MANGA ANGELA
I bought this one recently, and was really disappointed the first night I had her...
I looked at her the next day, and decided to "fix" the things I didn't like!! Her clothes are now metallic purple with dark blue metallic blue detailing, and of course, I fix'd her face!! We all REALLY know she was supposed to be Manga Angela, and was changed to Godess... Well, now we FINALLY got a new Angela sculpt!! Oh, I also learned a bit about replacing plugged hair as well!! (she just needed a WHOLE lot more of it!!) I'm REALLY happy about this "conversion... But.... ;)
Another one of those one day wonders!! A HarleyQuinn gone bad (is that possible)? Supersculpey Hair, and a little chest enhancement (Harley ain't that well endowed.. ;)) Oh and her base?? Thor's cloud thing with lightening, and the electro Steel figures lighting as well I'll rescan her one of these days for the full effect.
This was a pet project from WAY back!! I had gotten her head as a NG gift in the first few months of being on RTAF, and just hadn't gotten around the her!! She's got the old head, and yet another Princess What's Her Name's body. I cut a cloth skirt for her myself (Rot's rubbing off on me!) and sewed it. Just add a backpack from the new extreme ghostbusters, and she's ready to rock!! and to make things even better, I managed to recently obtain for her and my original ecto-1, a firehouse for all of $10!! Who said life always sucks??? (Oh it was ME?? ;))
SuperDeformed Beast
I was gonna delete this one, but it's so easy, that I'll leave him her so others can have a easy idea for a first project..Just take A large Marvel Universe Beast's head, cut it carefully, and add it to the smaller version of the same character!! Quite easy, quick, and no paint required!! And the spiffy backdrop?? go play with photoshop filters some more.. ;))
This is Old Luse in progress.. basically, he's a combination of a lightup nightcrawler head, body, and legs, and the lightup gambit coat, arms, and feet. I even manager to retain the lightup function! (Lara Croft's conversion was a GREAT lesson for this figure!!) I'm thinking of adding real hair, like on the wetworks vampire too. Then I'll need to sculpt his boot and body details... but he's coming along great so far! (BTW if you attempt this, be prepared for ALOT of cursing while you're trying to get the body parts apart on both figures.. I have lots of exacto scars to prove this..)
Evil Dead Ash (from a total justice superman fig)
(and whatever else I dream up in the mean time!)
Stay Tuned, Kiddies!!
