    My Black Canary!

    Black Canary!

    The guy who wanted this made, said that he did not want the Mego-style girl head with doll hair (Supergirl, Invisible Woman).
    So I suggested the Lost Claire head with the molded hair. The face looks more realistic, and he loved it.
    That's the picture he sent me, next to her.
    I took the Claire head off the body, and cut her attached neck off.
    The body is from Mattel Janine. I had to build up a neck plug on it to fit in the hole of the cut Claire head.
    Then I painted her chest to match a little closer to the color of her face.
    The suit of course is Brian Leitner, as if no one already knew that.
    Excellent work by Brian!
    I hope you all enjoy!

                              Really great work. She looks awesome. I'm not sure I would have had the guts to try to reconstruct the male-style neckplug into a female-style neckplug!... But the results speak for themselves.
