.....and finally after three, maybe four revisions and complete different looks, here is (hopefully) the one that will stay. Hope you like:
I will show the previous incarnations tomorrow probably......getting tired so I am off to bed. I've got more detailed and different angle shots I will also post.

Looks brilliant, Raiden! I like the "Trill" spots on her and the head looks great!
Come to think of it, I'm sure my unfinished Mad Max custom is close to 5 years or so as well...bleh. |

Very elegant. She looks like she could use some kind of belt though.
Is the saber hilt from viktor wullf from the fantasy.net board? |

Thanks for the kudos. I don't know if I'll use a belt or not for her......I was thinking about it, but I wanted to keep her minimal to go along with
her cat-like appearance. I based her looks on Cheetara from 'Thundercats'. I didn't do exact Cheetah spots, but now that Cryos has mentioned it
they do look like a Trill. I plan to make more and have them go down and around her back and upper thighs possibly. And yes, she'll stay bare-footed, for
quickness and agility sake. She's part animal of some kind........I think of her as a runner type like from Kenya. Kinda like Kit Mambo from
'Animalympics'.
The hilts were purchased from BHD2 from Fantasynet. I hate to admit I don't remember the name, but I have it around here somewhere. Great guy, and his saber hilts are awesome. I have three, and I plan to get some more. Great stuff!

Here are two more shots, I guess I should photoshop some lightsaber FX huh?
 
Not too different, but I really liked both shots, so I kept them. I had one more but haven't had the chance to crop and resize it.

I like the dark eyeliner you put around her eyes. Hope you'll be able to get a closeup of the face.
Yeah, Cheetara was hotness. For all the years that I've been hanging out on the 1:6 boards, I've never seen anyone do Thundercats customs... maybe I haven't been paying attention, has there ever been any? Hey maybe you can give her a double-edged saber. Cheetara had a staff...

Dude! She is looking really, really cool. I may just have to steal the idea! I sorta always liked the idea for a female Jedi to not wear the robes, they
don't seem to be every "female" like nor show off the cruves and such of a women. Then again, what guy doesn't like seeing chicks wearing
barely anything?
-It is a gift
-I know, it's called a Prince Albret |

She looks great Raiden. Did you use acrylic paint for the spots?

Nothing says Jedi have to wear their robes all the time...hell look at Shaak Ti or Maris Brood from the Force Unleashed! (Especially Shaak Ti...if only i could
get some hard wearing red spraypaint...of course, by the time i was done, Sideshow or Medicom would have already done the "Jungle Girl" version
"Up with miniskirts!!!
 "

onesixthsense wrote: Some of them, yes...some I used a marker that I bought specifically for tattooing figures. It was supposed to be a permanent marker set that can be used on CDs that wasn't alcohol based, therefore supposedly more smear proof. Sharpie style markers seem to bleed and fade, and can even rub right off of the plastic. The CD markers seem to be really good for all of these reasons. I am thinking about putting more on her, but I really don't wanna go overboard. She's still a WIP.
