Thanks guys!  I found the perfect belt for her the other day on a CW Aurra Sing, but I have a hard time buying a figure just for one accessory like that.  I'll have to keep looking...

Sweet figure.
Maybe you will want to experiment with this Baroness as a base figure someday?
She will work nicely with a Sigel Dare or Leia head...

Ok, forget what I said about the Sigel Dare head. It looks too big on the petite body of Baroness, but with a better sized Leia head and maybe a softgoods cloak added she might not look too bad after all.

That's not bad, but I needed parts with more skin showing. I'd still like to find a good Leia head tho

Thanks FF! I'm still looking for ways to improve her, but she's one of my favorites!

very nice.  Very very nice.

I had alot of problems with the MU figure's "assets" scraping off the paint at the torso joint. 
I like the use of the tallon lower half... of course I'd never have considered using it because of the swivel waist!  damn my closemindedness when it comes to articulation.

I've got to find me one of those darth tallons to super articulate though... i think I could do the exact opposite of this recipe and make it work pretty good (IE darth tallon upper half on an MU or Joe bottom half...)


anywho.  I guess if you realy want to see my dark leia fig I'll post it up. but it's not much different from yours in the end.  We both used the same head too.

Re: Phatty's Custom Figures-Smashbolt!
« Reply #314 on: July 31, 2010, 08:29:12 PM »
Well, I worked on my Smashbolt today, and I'm not entirely happy with her.  I messed up the original arms that went with the female stormtrooper's body, so I used Sigel Dare's instead.  They're not bad, but they also don't fit in the torso correctly, so they're very loose.  The lower torso just does not seem to want to stay seated on the hips correctly.  Her overall look is one that I was going for, so I'm happy about that, but I just wish I could get the arms to tighten up without restricting the movement.  Here is the recipe...

Head: Jes Gistang (Joker Squad pack)
Arms: Sigel Dare
Upper Torso: Jes Gistang
Lower Torso: Aayla Secura
Lower body: Sigel Dare
Helmet: GTG Customs original

I modified a rifle to become her own sniper rifle, and gave her a DL-44 blaster as well.  I may have to find another purple to use, since this purple is so difficult to see well.
