The recipe on this is the standard mix of single pack NS Baroness and Scarlett parts. The arms are from Bombstrike and needed a lot of thinning down to match with the Baroness and Scarlett parts.

The Scarlett head required a lot of work. The face got a lot of work- mostly the nose, which had a bit of bulbous tip. I trimmed it down to a slender nose and then added a nose ring.

Instead of the Lady Deathstrike flappy cowl with exposed hair, I went with more of a textured diver's head cap/mask. I kept the silver/lime green colors for the night vision system, but sculpted it to have two round lenses instead of the slotted strangeness Hasbro had.

For the color sheme, Hasbro's black base w/gloss black details looked fine, but I decided to go with a midnight blue base w/black details instead. It only seemed to fit the look of the character to replace the gun's black color with a chrome color instead.

Overall, not bad. I like the colors including the dark blue. The head I'm not so crazy about, but it works for the character that is for sure.

I think that you did some good work, The only reason why I could tell it was scarlets head is by the eyes. I really dig the purple and silver color scheme. They work real well together. It took me a second to figure out what blue you were talking about as in the larger picture is does not carry over well on my puter. The close up picture does though.

The one thing that I might suggest, and this is only from my personal opinion and tastes. I would bring out the cobra symbol on her chest in the lime green. I would also add more purple in there somewhere too. Maybe on the ring around her face were the pullover starts?

she looks nice, she's cartoony looking and at least on my monitor it doesn't look like to much color but if there was some color variations it'd bring out more details, but I could be wrong with what I see and what you have in front of ya,

Thanks for the thoughts, guys.

I got the impression that it was difficult to tell the midnight blue from the black on the image I posted. When I looked at the image, trying to imagine I hadn't seen the figure before and knew how it was painted, it did seem a bit dark.

Here's a manipulated image. This is a bit closer to how the colors appear in person.

Never mind on my green suggestion. It looks a lot like what I was saying only with different colors. Looks great.

That's some very clean work you've done here. I thought at first the smile is off for an evil character, but then I remembered that she's a sociopath! The cap and face work are damn good, especially after you've shown us the truer color scheme.
