Excellent custom Pat, he reminds me of Dan Dare. The colour choices are also really great.

Ok, I'm working hard core on my Darth Leia.  I found the pieces I wanted to use.  It's not exactly like the original picture I've found, but it's very close and I'm loving how it's coming out thus far.  Frankly, it was impossible to find Vader legs to fit a female body.  Also, the hair style on Sigil Dare of Legacy is almost exactly what I was looking for, and since I haven't been able to find a good Leia figure with a true likeness, I just went with the Sigil Dare head.  Overall, I'm very delighted in how it's turning out.  I'm about 90% done, just needing to add her glove cuffs and her skirt, which is proving to be the real daunting task.  Anyway, here is my recipe thus far...

Head: Sigil Dare, Legacy Comic Pack
Upper Torso/arms: 70s version Ms. Marvel, Marvel Universe Line
Lower torso/legs: Darth Talon, Legacy Comic Pack.
Lightsaber: Sigil Dare, Legacy Comic Pack.
Skirt (thus far) plastic ziplock bag cut out.

I then realized that her facial skin tone was WAY off from her body skin tone, so I went in with a detail brush and fixed that...

Pat that is looking really good! I hate to hear you are working with a zip lock for the skirt. I have some black pleather I could send you.

I had thought of that, and went out looking for some, and realized I'd need it to be ridiculously thin, so I thought I'd try out the zip lock baggie.  It's actually an "accessories" baggie, very small with a slightly thicker make up than say a sandwich baggie.  I've painted it and applied it, and it's actually looking VERY good, so I'm kind of impressed with how it came out.  I'm wondering if Im' going to bother with adding cuffs to her gloves, because they look so good already.  I've added detail to her hilt of her lightsaber, and now I need to find a belt to use.  I just noticed she had a brown belt, which I found odd...

Ok, here she is, 98% finished.  I say that, because I'm still on the lookout for a belt for her, and am still deciding on her gloves.  Frankly, I'm not talented enough to use the plastic for the cuffs, it's too small for me.  If I find some on another figure that I can swap out, I will do that.  I'm pretty happy overall, so I'm calling it finished for now.  I know Devin had done one as well, so he'll have to show his off now.

Thanks, L.E.!  I'm pretty happy with her overall.  Now I need to start on Nova Varisin from the Forum Novel...
