I just used a ML Phoenix as a base, used some apoxie sculpt for some of the detailing, foam for the shoulder pads, and a bit of citadel paint. The yellow paint did not go on well, even priming with white didn't help much. I tried taking it apart, sanding, painting, and putting back together, and even that didn't do much to help the shoulder or leg joints. Overall I'm happy with how she turned out, but I would recommend a different base for others.
