1/4 Scale Ms. Marvel Conversion (Purple Ver.)

#1 Post by thecollector80 »

Latest piece I finished. Converted from a Solarwind Countess Karnstein. Not really done yet as I haven't done the prop I have in mind for the left open hand. Planning on sculpting some kind of flame thingy. maybe put an LED light inside or something. I decided to make the head magnetized and detachable. Statue is also not permanently attached to the base and is removable but at the same time very sturdy once inserted into the base since each foot has a long peg that extends deep into the base.

Decided to go crazy with the paint scheme on this one. I don't really have any basis for the purple suit except for the fact that I like it. I also like the color teal so the base got that treatment too. The "Ms. Marvel" base logo is an airbrushed and stenciled logo I made. the US flag is just a decal I cut.

I will update pics of the flame prop when done.

Absolutely fantastic! Crisp clean lines all around, and I love the color choices. Beautiful job. Love the sculpt too.

forgot to post the update here. fire thingy done. might make a different version using translucent plastic and make more of a 3D fire effect as opposed to the flat effect of this one.
