Yes,i'm at it again.Actually this will be my last for a little while as i move house next weekend and it will be a while before i can set up and continue.But enough of my problems. Growing up i always knew Hawkman but never really Hawkgirl.Anyways after watching Justice league i fell in love with her character[especially after the scene where she kicked the GL Corps backsides in that Bar] and wanted to do a Custom of her.I actually hurried to get this one done for a Custom Contest i'm entering.So please enjoy and as always love to know what you think. Thanks for looking! ;D

Great job FB, I love the mask ! Nice job on the wings, by the way they are curved they seem to wrap around her, very cool! Good luck with the move.

WOW!Thank you all so much for your kind words.You have no idea how much i appreciate them. To answer some questions.Yes Josh she was Belit from the Conan line,i had to do a hell of a lot of prep on her removing all the jewellery etc before i could think about starting the sculpt.I Love my dremel!!! And DarthM,it's hard to tell in the photosto tell but the wings do sort of form a protective barrier around her which is the effect i was going for.

For some reasons I didn't see hawkGirl in that fig.. Don't worry about it WCV,how it seems to work for me is i see a figure and just get hit with who that figure is meant to be turned into.I can't explain it,it's weird. And 1047,don't give up please.It's a really fun Hobby and it's for your own personal pleasure.Keep at it and i'm sure you will find it as rewarding as i do.

Whats the secret? (sits waiting wondering if all will be revealed.............................a little naive, he feels!!!) LOL It's not naive at all.The truth is there's no real secret.Just plan what you want to achieve,don't be afraid to ask for any advice on how to accomplish something.Start small with a repaint just to get the feel of working with the figures. And above all just enjoy it,if it's not fun it's not worth doing.

I've been dying to get started on my own project, but I've been so pressed for months now. Plus I'm having some difficulty finding everything I need.
But that doesn't mean I can't drool over everybody else's brilliant efforts! ;D[/shadow]

[shadow=purple,left,300]This is a great hobby for people with a lot of time.[/shadow] Who said i've got time to do it LOL.Between moving into a new house that needs a lot of renovation.Looking after 2 children and trying to establish my own business and writing a book time is something i severely lack. Here's the secret,turn off your television and do other things,that is the greatest time waster of the modern age.That and don't sleep a whole lot.
