And April and Karai are done.

08 April O'Neil (Ninja Training):

More 01
April and Casey
Finally have an April figure. Check the above posts for her reference picture. In season 4 of the 2003 series, April got a new jumpsuit. She appears in the intro this way and one or two episodes (ones I've only seen 1-2 times, so I'd have to get help pointing them out). I really liked this suit because her tiny shirt design never sat well with me. Don't get me wrong I like that design and all, but it just didn't always work (Especially when she was working in a lab). Really wish she had used this one more. Weapons wise, I gave her some Butterfly swords and a short sword on her back. Like Casey, she has white strips on the sides that can't been seen head on. The hair turned out far better than I thought it would. I only dislike that it's the same color as Casey's shirt. Overall, I'm happy with her. Still hope to make the old toon April as well.

PARTS:
Head - Pilot Scarlet
Bun - POTF Leia
Torso and Arms - ROC Scarlet (camo)
Upper Legs - Helix
Lower Legs - ROC Scarlet (Armored)
Sword and Case - VvV Scarlett (been wanting to mod one of those for a long time)
Butterfly Swords - Ninja Battles
(Scarlet has been getting all the good parts lately)

09 Karai (Battle Ready):

Vs Raph and Gear
She is sooooooooooo close. Theres only one single problem I have with her: Her legs are uneven. The left leg is longer. It's the combination of the leg parts that makes it that way. Sadly, those are the only upper legs that work with both the torso and lower legs. Oh well, she's in action poses most of the time anyways. It's still better than those original crappy legs I had on her. Originally, she had a chain coming off her belt. Now, I've taken that chain and made her a full kusarigama. Amazing how many chain weapons I've made and this is only the first time I've done a correct kusarigama. The daggers have been replaced because the old ones were to tight and it was putting paint off. In the past, Star has nicknamed these daggers "letter openers."

NEW PARTS:
Torso, Upper Arms, and Upper Legs - ROC Scarlet (Armored)
Lower Legs - Range Viper
Letter Opener Daggers - VvV Alley Viper
Kama (sickle) - I think a Street Fighter GI Joe (it's been used a # of times)

(Scarlet has been getting all the good parts lately)

Some more fun fight pics.

Getting a good angle for this was a pain.

Wish I had realised this could be done before I entered it in the other contest. The little hook to connect the chain to Raph can be used to do this.

Man, making one image per entry is gonna be hard...
