I am thinking of turning 25th/ME Pilot Scarlett into a female Crimson Guard pilot for my chopper I am working on but not sure if it would look good. Anyone ever used this figure for anything?

lol, well I painted her hair yellow, so she'd look more like the original Glenda figure she was based on. My first custom ever!
Making her a crimson anything would require a lot of paint on joints, etc, I would assume. Most of the body itself is just the same as that diver Baroness, I think - maybe that would be a better base, as it's already red?

I'm sure with all the DVD sets being picked up cheaply at TJ Maxx and all, you could get an extra cheap. I've found red paint to be a nightmare, it takes so many coats that the joints don't stand a chance, and youre going to be posing this thing to sit. Almost all of the parts are found on regular Scarlett, and there have been countless customs with her. |

I painted one of mine olive green and gave her blonde hair, as well. Now she's Bombstrike in my 'verse, an A-10 pilot who flies the TRU Thunderbolt from '97.

This sounds like a good ideal. I hope you post it once it is done.
