It has always bothered me that their was no female member of the Renegades, so I decided to make my own.

The basic outline I have for her backstory is that she grew up poor, and when she parted from her family she spent her time traveling the country as a grifter until she was ran a foul of the wrong people. She decided the military was a better option then cement shoes or jail. She took to the training well but didn't play well with others which is what eventually landed her with the renegades. Specialty-wise I'm think infiltration, counter intelligence, and sabotage. I'm thinking something like Coyote or Gypsy as a codename

I like the look and feel for the character. My only critique of the figure itself is one of personal taste in that I'm not a huge fan of that head/hair combo. But I like the colors and paint apps, and I really like the way the coat looks. Really adds to the loner feeling you described in the bio.

agree with Dennis, she does look great, I don't mind the head/hair combo as I've used it before. Like the bio and colors. What is the jacket from kinda hard to tell?

The jacket is from Nero from the Star Trek line, it's cut nearly perfectly for female joes

I like it! Gotta agree that the only real place I see for improvement is the head, but it's a solid character/concept/ and figure none the less!

Cool - I have that coat, but had not thought to use it yet. I did use the Nero arms elsewhere, so now I just need to think of a suitable figure for it. Nice eye.

I'm mad at myself for not thinking of having a female Renegade in the first place.

Not sure what to name her, but was thinking of something like, "Boilermaker" or something along that line.

As for the figure itself, the red torso is throwing me off. I'm trying to picture this one with the only splash of color being the gloves and I think that look is cool.
