RECIPE

Harley Quinn has a MicroLady Catwoman body and Street Fighter Sakura head. The details were stripped down and there was also some additional sculpting done. The mallet is a Xevos weapon sanded and painted to match her mallet from the comic. Her two pistols were sanded and painted to fit her hands. They were originally accessories from a Trigun Meryl figure. The bazooka was painted silver to match the comic. The bomb was made from two beads, some thread, and a small amount of clay. The portraits were printouts glued to a stiff card. A thin frame was made from 1mm black elastic line and superglued to the edges. A thin piece of wire was also superglued to the back of the portraits to hang from the display base. The display was originally part of the Trigun Meryl display but was mostly stripped down and painted. Two hyenas were completely sculpted from scratch, sanded, then painted. We used Citadel Acrylic Paints and Aves FixIt Sculpt on Harley.

The hyenas were sculpted using Sculpey.

Recipe: She's made from an Xmen movie rogue (custom version). A large amount of details was sanded off. Her head is an animated Batgirl the bat ears come from a batman figure. The hair, boots and gloves were sculpted. The wings are cardboard, and i printed out the emblem.

This Power Pack includes: Wonder Woman, Mera, Hawkgirl, Power Girl, Vixen, Gypsy

RECIPE: I’m most pleased with Vixen in this set, which totally took me off guard.  I used the NBA arms and torso for her, which gives her longer arms than a standard minifig, but she turned out great.  I tried to minimize the use of Sculpey for these, and was able to just use it for Mera and Wonder Woman’s tiaras and Hawkgirl’s helmet.  I’m still not entirely satisfied with Hawkgirl’s wings, but those can be rebuilt at some point if I get ambitious. The rest of the changes are acrylic paint and line work with a Uni-Ball ink pen…pretty straightforward.

The Villainesses of the DC Universe Power Pack includes: Circe, Star Sapphire, Queen Bee, Volcana, Cheshire, Killer Frost, Giganta

RECIPE: I was able to get away with only using Sculpey for Queen Bee and Volcana, both of whom have unique enough hairpieces that I had to sculpt them.  Otherwise, it’s just acrylic paints with black Uni-Ball pens used for the details.  I may go back and make Circe’s hair a shade lighter—more lavender than purple.  I’m also working on a large-scale version of Giganta to terrorize the Justice League, but other than that, I like how they turned out.

The minifigures include: Jade, Katma Tui, Arisia

RECIPE:  No Sculpey this time—just some acrylic paint for the skin tones and the Green Lantern details.  The line details are drawn on with Uni-Ball ink pens…other than that, it’s all acrylics.
