Hey guys!
Below is my second custom submitted to the Tank - it took me some time to make, and caused me alot of stress, but it came out better than I hoped! I have to thank a guy I think we all know - Alyosha - for making this whole thing possible! : ) I present: ZARANA! I started out with this custom meant to be as close to the original as I could, but I realized in time, we'll get a Zarana. It might not be the best, but she'll show up sooner or later. So, with that knowledge, I adapted my plan and went a different direction - Resolute Style Zarana! She's got a bit more realistic spin to her, trying to get as close to a modern punk look without going overboard, thus the darker colors, shiny/leather belt with studs, and pale skin. The traditional pink had to be there, and her faded orange highlights were a must. I ever went with a less feminine foot to achieve those spurs she had on back in the day. Finally, the kneepads are a combo of Cade Skywalker's kneepads and a worthless Breaker kneecap, cast into one piece. Head : Alyosha cast Torso : Darth Talon Belt : DVD Pack Snake Eyes Biceps : Darth Talon Forearms : Emperor Palpatine Comic figure Thighs ; Cobra Eel Knees : Cast knee joint from Cade Skywalker kneepad Lower Legs : Darth Talon Feet: Crimson Guard Weapon : Destro Suitcase pistol Thanks so much for looking, guys!

Wow! To be honest I was never a big fan on Dreadnoks. But after seeing what you did, I am really impressed.
This may seem strange for me to say, but that is one hot piece of plastic you got there. She is amazing. You did some awesome work. |

Awesome!
I doesn't look too Resolute imho, though this isn't bad. The kneepads work great, i really like how it looks. Tattoos? Can i use it for a pic? I was going to do a drawing of her, but i hadn't a clear idea. Looking at this...well, i don't have to think anything else |

I love her! Shes awsome, I can not stand the other hair style she has! Nice work! Give her some face paint like war paint or a scar!

Hahaha, aside from the fact that that "shirt" would not put up with any action at all, I love this. The sculpting and painting are great. Seamless. Well done.
