This is a present for a childhood friend. We were both huge She-Ra fans.









That's tooling foil. A lot of metal and superglue went into this project. The cheap jewels are supposed to be reminiscent of the action figures we played with when we were kids.



I really like the way the armbands came out. I used an older-bodied Barbie for a more cartoonish look.



Boots I had lying around. I also carved out muscles on the legs. In some places it looks a bit rough, but it's definitely an effect I'm going to continue.



I'm not too happy with the way the sword came out. I baked the blade into Sculpey, and I think it looks more like a blob than a hilt. I may attach some metal over the actual hilt and repaint the handle.
