Hey again,

To go along with my Arkham Batman from a few weeks back, I started the Harley. I love the way she looks in the game--very cool. I searched for a base figure and my pal in Chicago had sent me the 50's lois, in her green supersuit. Not an easy custom to see in THAT figure, but I was feeling adventurous.

First, I cut off the hair with an X-ACTO. Next, I trimmed off the skirt, which I discovered actually served as a large part of her torso that I would have to replace. I took Aves and sculpted in her torso, increased her chest size, and then made the shirt, corset vest, and her lower tummy. I sculpted her upper shirt sleeves and the shirt collar, as well as her new hair, pigtails, and the nurses cap. I added the lines of her belly and the belly button, and took a bit of Aves and gave her more of a butt.

Next I sculpted her boots and added height by adding a thick sole and raised the tops to her mid thigh. I used white cloth for her skirts, folding and glueing for a somewhat pleated effect, and splattering some dirty red for bloodstains. Her belt and throat collar is cut from Bizzaro's cape and painted. The enitre figure is painted with Tamiya colors.

I think she looks bad-a$$--please let me know what YOU think. Thanks.

Fitz

THANKS FOR THE COMMENTS! On the leg joints--the original figure has leg joints at the hip not unlike the newer DCUC mass market figures; they can be moved out to the sides at the hip. The original figure's skirt hid the lack of fully sculpted upper legs at the hip and a lower torso. It also hid and restricted that joint. Don't know why they put that joint and then made it useless with the skirt--but I was able to get it be somewhat useful. Glad you like it. - Fitz -

NICE DESIGN!! IN FACT FITZ MY FRIEND I USED THE SAME FIGURE TO MAKE MY AOA JUBILEE, SO I KNOW THE BATTLE OF RESCULPTING HER TORSO. CHECK MINE OUT AGAIN TO GET A PEAK AT THE NO SKIRT LOOK. BUT YOU DID AN AWESOME JOB HERE. OUTSTANDING DIFFERENCE FROM THE ORIGINAL FIGURE. GREAT TO SEE YOUR WORK UP AGAIN!

The finished figure looks like it has ball-joint leg articulation (or at least the DCUC T-joints), since her legs are in a wider stance. Did you add to to the base figure, as I don't remember the DCD Lois having that - most of those figures have 1977-Starwars style leg articuation - or am I way off? Just curious.
Awesome work, BTW!
