Nice job!

I like the body and everything (paint, parts usage, etc.) just fine but the problem lies with the head… I have yet to like removable glasses on any 1:18 scale figure (including ones I've done) as they always come off looking like coke bottle goggles or something, and it does that here, too.

You could get a casting of a Lifeline head at a couple caster sites, and Angelforge has a casting I believe (old Slayer sculpt, if I'm not mistaken) that is fantastic. All that work looks great but attached glasses would look best, if I can offer up any suggestions.

Very cool!

I agree that the head needs some adjusting thou.

First, tks for commenting. I agree to some extent with you, but the problem in this case, for my taste and view isn't the glasses ... is the eyebrows. Thing is I had to repaint this head a few times, the hat marked the forhead, then the color didn't match the arms, so I came to a point I just said.. enough. Even if they aren't perfect I like the glasses, speacially with the hat on, they are from the RoC Baroness, but I squared them a little. I know the Lifeline head is a obvious choice, as it has been used a good many times for this... but it is a bit on a small side too, and though it is far from for perfect this one is more unique .. and of course good enough for me.
I never bought anything from casters, thing is I receive my figures two or three times a year, and I HAVE to make do with the fodder I have. I believe sometimes this customizing hobby is getting too professional.

Very cool!

Oooh, Brazil. Yeah, I can see how it'd be tougher to get ahold of some things then.

Not bad at all.
