Continuing my dreadnok build , and my first female figure, I though Zarana would be a fitting and challenging figure to do.
Build time: 2:42 minutes . I looked through all type of comics and art work and blending reitterations as well as imagination to create a strong woman presence among-st ruthless savages. I gave her longer hair, right draw sidearms, curves and lipstick to show , even that shes a Dreadnok, she wants to feel pretty. In retrospect, Harley Quinn-ish/ Geena Davis this was built from the ground up. heavy dremel work, loads of paint and fine detailing Also nose ring, because why not? Here she is:

Love the slices (pun intended) in her jeans! Totally see Geena Davis, lol.

Dig this one a lot. Nice detailing, as always, and the color contrast is sharp- really catches the eye.

Very cool! She fits right in with the crew you've been assembling!
And now I understand 30-some-years later just how ridiculous her rifle is. |

What's not to love about this Zarana? You made her hair fuller, which was needed in my opinion.
Sticking true to her vintage colors to keep her ARAH recognizable. Love the kick ass nose ring! The updated saw-rifle and placement of her knife to her right hip to stay true to her signature weapons and look. The more updated slits in her jeans are what all the girls are wearing. And I like the fact you stayed away from her knee high boots and gave her more comfortable and practical footwear. Very awesome work bro! You definitely set the customizing standard. |

Another awesome take on a classic figure!!! I recommend getting some Die Cast Jessie James/West coast customs 1/18 scale choppers if they need rides. I'm sure you could trick out one of those out further.
