Very well done!

The wrist articulation works perfectly for the sledge hammer pose.

Good call on the orange hair, which is the sweet spot between auburn and blonde, but too far away from red to look like Scarlett.

The painting on the shirt has a unique texture on it, like you're swirling the brush as you pull it away? Nice touch.

Thanks!

The unique brush texture was totally unintentional. I think it might just be a combination of dodgy sculpting and over-painting--but I'll take the compliment!

Man, I scrolled by this on FB real quick while looking for something else and just assumed this was a Classified scaled figure because of the hips, but holy crap that looks especially sharp at this scale. Nicely done.

Really dig the overall look. I was thinking of using a similar parts combo - glad to see they fit together so well - very cool!

Thanks! 1/18 for life!

Yeah, I like how these parts work together (and with minimal painting!). One thing to note: the BFS Queen Solana legs and the Zombie Fighter torso fit together fine, but there's a half-inch wide recess around the waist that has to be filled in. You can still kind of see the line across her abdomen where the Zombie Fighter torso and my sculpted filler meet.

Hah! Thanks. Glad to know she's living up to her runway model reputation.

Haha I was reading someone's comment on another forum about the Classified version & they were complaining she looked "too much like a model" :roll:
