Glenda

Post by Greg3 »

A quick, simple and pretty lazy custom of Argen-7's Glenda (whom I admit I'd never heard of until I saw her on here in the comic project section!!) I took the pic as an entry in Joedios weekend theme of "Girls of War". The story I had in mind for the pic is that she's waiting for her team mates before they head off to raid a MARS facility in Argentina that's been behind an attempted coup...

Thanks for looking
Cheers

Hi
It's essentially just the 25th Anniversary Scarlett Pilot figure (which was obviously intended to be some sort of homage to the original Glenda - although why they couldn't have gone the whole way and given her the right head/name I don't know) with a head from a Star Wars figure, a headset from the Pilot Destro figure and a grenade from a comic pack Scarlett (no painting etc needed!!) The gun is from Marauder inc.

Link to original figure

Nice! The white, silver and pale blue colour scheme really does work well.

Nice work - as the other lads say - colours are spot on. She does sort of look like she should be :cobracommander: 's wife if they had matching wardrobes!

Thanks for comments - and those pics of the original toys... like I said, I'd not heard about them before but now I might attempt to make customs of some of them (I only have 25th anniversary Joes's and can't paint/sculpt to save my life but I'll give it a go and see what happens... the Cobra Invasor should be easy... it's not like I'm short of Snake Eyes figs!!!) And I'll definitely be checking out your comics!!
Cheers
Greg
