          The fabric was purchased at Joann's. The fingers are covered with fabric which were glued down with super glue and trimmed. The gloves are the wrong side of the glitter fabric.

            This is how her hair looks from the back.

              That material is so spot on perfect.

              Head sculpt - perfect.

              Stitchwork - perfect.

              As a complainer, this project leaves me with nothing to add.

                What about her hair? Isn't it so awesome?

                I love how natural it looks for the scale.

                    Otherwise you're looking at Type 3 Toys prices. You get what you pay for.

                    That said, this is one sweet Batgirl.

                      I love the fabric, and the way that the suit is coming along.

                      How are you going to do the hair, though? Superglue to the back of the head after painting?
                      The body is a Mattel Cheetah body which I never knew was just so exquisitely feminine.

                          Agreed, you can't pay for passion like this. Stunning work Jessica.

                            FTC could use a headsculpt that actually looks like Yvonne and a body that isn't 40 years out of date and come a lot closer to this than they are going to.

                              Respectfully, we shouldn't be using Jessica's thread to engage in an FTC debate, I know I contributed but I wish I hadn't.

                                I posted a video on YouTube! Please check it out. Also I am out of the loop on many fronts and was surprised to see that FTC is making Batgirl and Harley!. I just make stuff. Thanks for looking
