Here's a new custom of mine... I'd been wanting to give Lady Jaye a new head forever; the baseball hat just had to go.

I wanted to go with a head that looked closer to the cartoon character. I had a cast head I'd bought from Tri-Gate, but unfortunately the scale is off and the head was way too small to be used on a vintage body. So I eventually decided to go at it and sculpt a new hairdo myself. I had very limited experience with sculpting before. It was no easy task... but I'm quite satisfied with the end result.

I also gave her uniform a fresh repaint. Enough with that bright green she was wearing. I went for something a little more tactical.

I hope you like her too!

Now I only need to give her a few accessories, and she'll be set!

Why we didn't see this in the comic 3 packs line or even in the 97+ packs is beyond me. Perfect.

Wow, maybe somebody should cast your head. How didyou get the body to look that good?

Thanks buddy! I gave the body a new paint job, and a slight wash on top of it. That helps bring out the details in the sculpt IMO. I wanted her clothes to look more tactical than the bright green she was previously sporting.

As you can see, I also decided to brush paint a few details, like buttons, buckles, the boot soles, etc. The sculpt is not so bad when you look at all the details on it.

Wow thanks for the great comments everyone! I'm honored!

Now a question for you all - what kind of accessories would you see her use?

I was thinking she'd look good with an AUG77, but that assault rifle doesn't really scream "covert operations" now, does it?

What about a M4 with silencer? That'd give her some firepower.

Or just a 45 automatic with silencer - probably more covert than anything else.
