You may have saw her at Wonderfest/NRA. She wasn’t quite finished then. But with some minor additions and changes, she is now completed.
The genesis for this build started with a photo I saw on the ‘net.
The posing on this particular 1/6 Atelier generic girl lends itself quite nicely to easy custom conversion. I have completed one before using this figure, (see my James Bond/007 themed grouping in the gallery). The main goal on this project was to render a wet or water themed scene. That meant that I had to cut them beautiful long legs off, but, the show must go on!
I added a bit more "junk in her trunk" with aves putty. After test fitting numerous combinations of weapons (big guns/small guns) and accessories, this was the final fit out. Most of the extras are action figure items except the scuba mask, snorkel, watch and speargun, which are scratch built. The equipment belts are vinyl strips. The most noticeable change since her NRA appearance is that she now looks very wet.
At one point I had considered taking this in a more realistic direction and putting her in camouflage body paint and adding a little post-mission wear and tear. But I decided in the end to save that concept for a future kit conversion project. What I ended up doing this round is pure fantasy. She’s a fictionalized, B-movie typical, fashion model-looking, erotically portrayed, assassin chick .
So, why is she naked? No good reason, that’s just the way she was written in the movie script .
As always, thank’s for look’n. CHEERS!

Helena is here at hand;
And the youth, mistook by me,
Pleading for a lover's fee.
Shall we their fond pageant see?
Lord, what fools these mortals be! -Puck
