The last figure is a prototypical femme fatale figure known as the Lady In Red. Boss fight studio Jane body with the red legs from a super hero female boss fight female figure.

The head is from Marauders and she is channeling. Battle Star Galactica Cylon Siren, 6.

Her dress is the star for me. It is a modified Beaded bracket I bought at the Native America. Museum in DC shortly before moving away. I purchased a couple of other beaded rings and bracelets that I am using as ponchos

I cut and glued the bottom of one side of the dress so the beads didn’t fall away.

Customizers like Mouse droid hoojib do such an incredible job with soft goods. I am not a tailor. But I have found a few items can serve the purpose of clothes and head gear. The bracket makes for a wonderful dress that harkens in some respects from on the roaring 20s and flappers.

So I recommend they each of see the possibilities in cloth scraps, bracelets and other items in the home that help us build a galaxy far, far away in our own homes.

Captain Vonna Torsyn "Shard Leader"-Captain Torsyn commands the TIE Fighter squadron Shard Squadron stationed at the Imperial garrison tower on Byblos. Born into a wealthy family, Vonna attended the Imperial Naval Academy on Carida. She excelled in her classes and had a bright future until she upset the wrong people. Instead of being assigned her dream job of a TIE pilot aboard a Super Star Destroyer, she was assigned to a garrison flying the older TIE/GT models. This has caused her to become bitter and vindictive to those beneath her. It's a common sight to see her berate junior officers, enlisted, and even civilians. It is unwise to get on her bad side.

Sorry for the late post. I've been planning this from the beginning, but with the end of the school year and some personal issues cropping up, I am only getting to this now. I wanted to show @YAK_Chewie and the rest of the community my appreciation for keeping these Yakfinities alive over the years. So, my first custom entry to this Yakfinities is not a submission, but an extra prize for one of the winners! She's a femme fatale straight from the old Expanded Universe: Rav Bralor!20260608_102013.jpg

I love the inspiration. Comparable outfit and hairstyle (which is a challenge unto itself) but a completely different figures. Superb idea and execution. Love this.

I'm really a bit astounded by the variety of female characters that you guys have been coming up with for this round. The craftsmanship is equally impressive as well.

I'm still piecing together mine and having a rough go finding the right parts for the obscure character I'm building - wish me luck. :p
Also......what kind of parts do you need. Maybe someone here can help with that.

Yesterday I laid out the parts to create the figure for this challenge to see what will potentially work with the limited customizing fodder that I have left - that is a challenge in itself, lol - especially because I don't buy new TVC releases to customize, as $20-28 is too much. It's not really a matter of needing a specific part, as being creative with what I can find in my bin - that can be difficult, because I've made a lot of female customs over the years and have exhausted my supplies - but I will find a way - or make them from scratch! ;)
