Well this my Daina... She is my first Oktober Guard figure, I expect to do a few more... but at the moment I don't have the parts.
I like the results, I would like to have a more accurate "beanie" but I like her look with this helmet and I think it fits a role of a helicopter pilot. I am not competing with the con exclusives... it wouldn't be a fair fight, for me of course ... and I think Daina is one of the best figures on the set, the only details I don't agree is the obvious too large "beanie" and that his facial features are a little too "girlish" (it is a nice head sculpt) ... and for me Daina is more a beautiful and fierce woman! As usual feedback is appreciated. ps: the other detail I don't agree about the con exclusive Daina is her availability! :-( |

Hell I like this head being used better than the actual Daina we got.

I like it. I have that same head which I wanted to use for this, but I don't want to paint the whole figure as I don't want to deal with paint wear/rub. I wish Hasbro releases that mold in the brownish color. Just painting on Camoflage, I can deal with...haha.
Great job!

Very nice! Did you have to mod the head to get it to sit properly on the neck?

Great work!
That mold was always a great sculpt, good choice. Paint is super sharp and clean, although the camo could be a bit more realistic, it works fine. Don't worry about the beanie, the helmet you've chose works perfectly. I'd like to mention the incredible advance and evolution on your customs. I've saw lots of humble customizers here become some of the best, and you're on that path!
