Alicia Masters first met the Fantastic Four when they came to an exhibition of her life-size statuary based on them and other super-personages. As it was early in the FF's career and Ben was still very reluctant to be seen in public, they arranged to come after the gallery's closing time for a private viewing.

As she is blind, Alicia heard the anguish in Ben's voice in his every comment and felt great compassion for him. Despite his self-revulsion, in time Ben came to have greater self-confidence due to her love, although now he fears she won't love him if he ever returns to normalcy.

Alicia is a bash of the Indy line's Marion Ravenwood with the RoC CoverGirl's abdomen-thru-knees. I used some papercraft to build the bottom half of her shirt, and some MicroGirl hands for more appropriate hand poses. The purse if from MU Green Goblin and the cane is styrene.

That's an amazing civilian figure. Great part choices and conversions.

You need a picture of Ben looking down at her with her hand on his face to "see" him!

Yeah that's a great blending of parts.
Seamless.

First of all +1 for making this character. She's not one the big company is gonna make, even though she is a prominent character in the MU.

The custom screams, but the technical aspect on how you meshed the parts for her..... mind blown.
