So, seen Dark Knight Rises yet? To be honest, I haven't kept up as well as I would like with customs the past few weeks. Been more making than looking. But, from what I've seen, aside from a few quick fixes, people have been making Bane more than Catwoman. Maybe that puts me in the minority that actually likes the look. But, I decided to do something I haven't ever had interest in doing before. Make a character from a movie and post it the weekend of the movie. So, I pulled set pics and looked at the official released figures and pulled her together. I watched the movie to see what toys she had, but all she did was keep stealing other people's guns. So, I gave her a gun. I think my only notable error was I make her gloves go a little too high.
I wanted to reduce rub as much as possible, so I used all black bases. I sculpted the end of the gloves so they would stick out a little more, and sculpted the collar. I took Baroness legs and sanded them down until they truly had the look of standard thigh high boots. Cut the belt from the official 3 3/4" release and glued it on, then grabbed some vinyl for the zipper and piping under the arms. Ended up just using sewing thread as it looked more accurate. Recipe: Head/Belt - DKR Catwoman Body - MU Black Widow Legs - ROC Baroness

Great job making this- if the DK line was this well done I'd have got then all!
lus, Anne Hathaway is the hottest woman in Hollywood. Possibly Earth. Did the head just swap on or did you have to drill it to fit the MU peg? |

The others actually fit good too on most bodies. You just gotta heat it first. I heated the Christian Bale head and popped it on a SHIELD Agent body. Looks good and still fully mobile. Just kinda been sitting there ever since. All the others seem to be the same too. Haven't had any issues myself. Thanks for the comments guys!
