Toon Accurate April O'Neil

Here we go again

I was really looking forward to the new NECA figure but after getting her, I wasn't happy. She looks better in person but her body is really tiny... (I think head is in scale with other figures but not with that body)

I decided to give a custom April figure another go and I sculpted the new head from scratch. I used Marvel Legend's Wasp's head but everything was sculpted apart from the nose that was just modified. I'm using the body from my other April custom but I will make a new body for her eventually. I hope you like it

Man, I really dig that. I feel like the expression really captures that "Inquisitive, Yet Sarcastic" demeanor of FW April.

That is awesome, dude.

I can't believe how terrific that is. Even more so when compared to NECA's mess - and these toys are what they do.

Nice job, but it's not perfect, her head needs to be bigger. Looks too small, make it twice as big or triple for good measure.
