First, credit where credit is due... I saw this awesome Black Cat custom done by Knighthawk and decided I wanted to try my hand at making something similar. I did a few things differently... I used the head/hair from the gashapon figure, along with cutting off all of the fur instead of sculpting my own. I also used a straightup Marvel Universe Ms. Marvel figure as a base, and kept her ams and legs intact. The only thing I altered was to cover the joint at the waist, since the upper half of the torso swivels, to make her cat suit seemless. Awesome idea Knighthawk, and I hope you don't mind me stealing it

A well executed custom. And certainly, the original was worth replicating since it was so well done. You guys both rock.

Cool stuff man, and steal away. I had stolen the idea of the gashapon head myself, from Havok15/King15, so what goes around comes around, lol.
Don't know if you had scrolled thru to page 4 of my post you lnked to, but I had gone back and added the fur from the gashapon figure as well. Just looks better than the scultped attempt I made, and I added a collar also. My only recommendation here is to maybe carve the zipper pull off the gashapon and add it just below the chest area to help the zip up catsuit illusion. Also, that fusing of the waist joint is an idea I ran with from customizer adrien veidt. I think it really improves the asthetic of the MU female figures, and you seem to have it down here too. Nice job.

Very cool, I am going to have to give using the gashapon head a go myself. Seeing how well it works for Black Cat do any of the other gashapon heads work as well?

I got the Batman set though, and have used the heads for my main Batman, Robin, Batgirl and Catwoman. Catwoman's head is especially awesome.

that's cool
I also have done that to my ms marvels (sculpting over the waist) you can also remove the joint from the ankle and use it as an elbow joint if ya got a scrap mu gal lying around that way she can move like a 25th style anyway |

Psylocke to me is in between. The head is bigger than Storm and Emma, but still on the smallish side of things. The bigger deal to me with the Psylocke gashapon head is that she's butt ugly :( lol
