Mara Del G'Ado

Mara Del G'Ado, wife of "Shipwreck" Del G'Ado and first mate of his flagship the "Moray" is an amphibious Mer from the planet of the same name. Mara Del G'Ado is every bit as ruthless as her husband and her proficiency with a blade is feared across all of the 23 seas.

Mer are capable of breathing both air and water but are more at home in the water than on land and have to return to the water every few hours or their skin begins to dry out. Mer eyes are also more suited for the twilight of the depths requiring most Mer to wear red tinted lenses while on land during the daylight hours to prevent light blindness. Beneath the waves, Mer posess incredible speed and strength and can withstand pressures far greater than humans or most amphibious races.

Parts:
Head/torso/pelvis/legs- 30thAC Comic Pack Mara Jade (modded)
Arms- 30thAC Comic Pack Dark Woman
Holster- G.I.Joe Spytroops Lady Jaye (modded)
Sheath- Chap Mei "Sea Exploration" (modded)
Blaster- Saga various figures
Pistol- G.I.Joe Barbeque (modded)
Sword- Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World's End Deluxe Elizabeth Swann
Knife- custom

This character is an homage to the old "G.I.Joe" cartoon episode where Shipwreck falls in love with a woman who was part of Cobra's genetic experiment to create an amphibious trooper. I painted her uniform in the traditional colors of my "Brotherhood Of The Serpent" project as another homage to the character's cartoon roots.

That's a solid figure. I really dig the blue flesh.

Fantastic, man.

I like that you kept the character, but hooked shipwreck up this time, :)

Really cool looking figure. Those comic packs sure have a lot of custom potential.
