    '66 TV Catwoman



    When I started this custom, I had no idea FTC was going to finally produce its own TV series Catwoman figures. I'm wondering if I should even bother having her mask painted black. What do you guys think?

    I'd paint it, I think it'd look good...

        I like this, (yes) I'd paint the mask too, but that's up to you, it looks great regardless.

            You should totally finish her! You could even sculpt over her mask to get the "cat eyes" affect so it is more like the show.

              I would LOVE to give her Julie Newmar's hair style! Cuz the FTC one doesn't look like it will be that accurate...

                How much would you charge to re-root her hair?

                  My friend painted her mask for me today. Next the hair and then the ears!

                    The mask does look better painted black...

                    It'll be cool to see how this progresses to a finished figure...

                        Re-root is complete. Next she'll need a trim, a touch-up to her mask, and cat ears (please come through for me, Paul!).

                            The re-rooted hair is an improvement: Are you going to try to style it Julie Newmar style, rather than the plain, straight style it is now?

                            Also, she is your figure and of course you can do (or not do) any improvements that you see fit, but if I might offer a suggestion: I would maybe repaint the eyes... The color they are isn't a problem, but her right pupil would look a little better if it was centered more... Just a suggestion...

                              I do plan on cutting and styling her hair in the Julie Newmar/Lee Meriwether style. As far as painting the eyes go, I'd have to ask my friend (who painted the mask) if she thinks she could do the eye. I'll be happy once the hair is done and I get the ears from Paul, so the eye really isn't that big a priority for me (at least not right now). I do appreciate your thoughts though.
