Last week made a start on the torso of a female post apocalyptic/zombie/fantasy figure (Burning Man Festival or Waste Land Warriors- Like a Mad Max) However hit a bit of a stumbling block, with arm position/choice of weapons, initially it was going to be a AK47, however different friends suggested a whole raft of ideas, from one to two AK47s, to a blunderbuss, shot gun, modern assault weapons, even futuristic ray guns. With so many ideas coming forward, and then other thoughts of my own, maybe dust mask/googles/ face covering as though she's travelling on UK public transport amid corona virus, cape etc etc I thought it best to cast some torsos off so I can alter/convert some as required. Still a bit of work to do on the torso, however this will vary with each new figure Thought the little lass should also have a backpack, converted from our modern military stowage set, and also added a bunny, may add a bit of colour in the long run.   |

Certainly looks good Paul and a 100% better than one or two other female subjects from the opposition  |

The weapons are clearly open carry to ensure social distancing is maintained! |

Of coarse, must admit when I go shopping people only get too close once... that reminds me, I must recharge my electric cattle prod later today... :-)

Nice to see someone doing female figures that aren't out of the wet fantasy that we normally see.

Thanks Paul, quite pleased the ways she's turning out, just so I can do both arms at the same time, I'm working two different torsos, hope to do some more tomorrow/early in the week. Mojo defiantly returned for the present :-)
may even done with a flame thrower :-)
Have a good weekend chaps
