My definitive Scarlett custom

[BlueFootedBooby]

Several months ago I started working on each of the Joe girls individually. I planned to do Jaye, Jinx, Zarana, Baroness, and Zarana. Bombstrike and Covergirl were perfect and didn't need customs. Some of you may know that Scarlett is my favorite character and I wanted her to be perfect. I had to wait for Covergirl to be released so I had all the pieces I needed. I decided to go with a modern look and used her Devils Due costume. Sorry about my shitty camera.

 

 

 

 

I love the America's Elite flips in her hair.

 

 

 

 

I tried to put more detail in this costum than I ever have before. This is my first time using sculpting clay, the straps on her quiver pouch.

 

 

 

 

Team pictures. Scarlett, Stalker, & Snake Eyes, my 3 favorite. And other pictures with the rest of the Joe gals.

 

 

When I started this, I told myself I wanted to make the best Scarlett custom ever... and whether I accomplished that or not, I am beyond happy with the finished project.

AWESOME WORK!I really like it dude.The paint applications are great and the colors work really well.I like the parts you used as well and the style you had her costume put together in (late DD GI Joe comics style?). The hair is pretty good too,where'd you get that from? The only suggestion I have is maybe darkening the color of her hair.

 

other than that,she looks great!good job man!

I really like it... except the hair. It kind of reminds me of anime hair... The colour's off (it looks pink) and although the hairstyle seems to be what you like, as a military man myself I can't see a woman working in the field with all that hair over her eyes!

 

Don't get me wrong, I think you're very talented, and I love every single other aspect of the figure (as well as your Jinx and Lady Jaye) but that one single element just doesn't do it for me.

[Snowman81]

Awesome work man....she really looks great. I give her an A-. A- because I'm not sure she can really see where she's going all that well.

[BlueFootedBooby]

The hair is from a line of girls figures called Winx Club.

 

 

The blonde, brunette, and red head all have removable hair... but I've tried every possible combination with the female Joe heads, and could only get the red head to fit Bombstrike (conveniently)

Nice job man!

[Dr. Strange Love]

To me this is the best Scarlett custom ever.. well so far...yeah there are some issues with her hair but nothing a little trip to the salon wont fix. Great Job... Two thumbs Bro! What maker, type and model

paints and brush did you use the paint job looks factory.

[RocknRoll1982]

I think she is pretty cool. If it was mine I might give her har a wash with some darker red and then one last light black wash to get some detail showing. But it is a great custom.

[RoyalZarak]

Awesome Scarlett custom. I love it.

[Draven79]

I use Apple Barrel paints, Testor's Sealent and whichever assorted paint brushes are small and cheap.

[Mekk Z]

Great custom. The hair especially is my favorite because it makes her look more Anime inspired.

Sweet dude. I caught a glimpse of this a while ago, minus the Cover Girl legs. Excellent. I tried hunting for these Winx chicks and no dice. The one's I found are for the big size dolls. Can you hook us up with some leads as to where we can find this line for sale. Everywhere I look it's all the Bratz.

 

Once again, nice job!

I found my Winx Club figure at Meijer, which is a local Midwest chain. I've seen some at Big Lots occasionally and just very recently have seen them at Target.

 

I would keep checking Target.

Very nice looking customs. Interesting hair choice for Scarlett.

[mk476]

Amazing Scarlett custom! I think you made an excellent choice for the hair. I've got to find some of those Winx gals and start some customs.

[xhairs]

awsome job. she looks great .the only thing i would do is darken the hair just alittle. other then that she is dead on.

[Cobra Command]

Great color combos.

[revsears]

I would break that not buy any customs of anyone else thing i have going if you put one of these babies on sale.

[obiprime]

She's a real beauty @luv@

[KamenDreda]

BRAVO!!!

 

Excellent Job, Jesse! Very likley one of the best Scarlet customs out there! Great Job! How ever I do have to agree that the hair color is just a bit to bright and looks a little unnatural... But really that is only a minor complaint. What matters is that you are happy with it! God job hottie boy!

[Cobra Command]

BRAVO!!!

 

God job hottie boy!

#WTF#

[NiteWing73]

That is my alltime favorite Scarlet figure. I love it. I agree with the other guys in that the hair should be darker but i like the choice of hair.

[KamenDreda]

BRAVO!!!

 

God job hottie boy!
