Female Crimson Shadow Guard Trooper

To go with the 3 previous Crimson Shadow Guard Troopers that I made, I decided to do a female version. Since Hasbro has never made a female Crimson Guard figure at all (Baroness Crimson Strike Team doesn't count either), I had to do some parts searching and came up with this combination seen in the above pictures. Using a dremel tool and a very very tiny bit of greenstuff (to fill in the hole left in the left upper chest/shoulder area from the grenade piece, and to smooth out the right shoulder area where I dremeled the "shoulder pad" off), parts from 2 very different 25th Anniversary figures and some gloss black and chrome silver Tamiya paints, the female Crimson Shadow Guard Trooper was created. I chose to use the 25th Anniversary Pilot Scarlett figure for the torso, arms, hands and head. The "stock" 25th Pilot Scarlett has alot more hair on her head than what this custom has and had to be dremelled and minor sculpting so the Crimson Guard helmet would fit on her head. I also had to dremel out the hip areas on the lower torso of the Pilot Scarlett figure to get the Crimson Guard upper legs to fit. After carefully dremelling out the hips, the Crimson Guard legs finally fit.

Getting the hair dremelled down enough so the helmet would fit over her head was a bit trickier then the hips were. After finally getting the head to fit in the helmet, it was on to the right shoulder pad on the Scarlett torso, I dremelled that off and filled in the hole left with greenstuff. After it dried, I smoothed it out and sanded it down so it looked normal. Continued tomorrow.................
