A repaint influenced by the Sunbow cartoon.
The pumpkin head is crazy big, but I wanted to see how it look painted w blonde hair. Last edited by Clockwise; 09-25-2015 at 09:50 PM.. |

What an improvement!
But even with the paint app upgrade, that head sculpt just looks like she spent too many late nights at the corner bar. |

I dig it, love seeing ARAH customs. Your paint apps are super smooth dude, I though that was factory plastic.

Thanks, all.
I was really happy with how the paint came out on this one, too. I stumbled onto the flesh tone by accident, but saw that it had just a bit too much yellow in it- like how the hands of the '82/'83 figures were painted by Hasbro, so I used it. By the way, I was really surprised to see how much that Scarlett head had shifted in orange, but it is 33 years old now. And I agree that she looks like Hot Lips (as a rat tooth bar fly- it's the eyeliner). Who knows- the figure was released in '83, so it was probably sculpted in '82 sometime, when MASH was still on the air. Someone at Hasbro might have realized that using blonde hair made it look like Loretta Swit based on the hair style and facial features and nixed it. Whoever sculpted the Cover Girl head gave it a wide mouth and a hair style not too far off from Loretta Swit, though probably by accident or coincident. |
