Hello dear Realmers,

I´m back with an other comission custom for a friend of mine. And it is my first female custom (that I post and share).

He did send me the New 52 Poison Ivy in her black outfit and he was craving for a more classic look, which should include to cover up the naked (if you can speak of that) right breast with her leaf costume.
He pretty much wanted a skintone and on top of that the trademark green costume.
The vines around her arms and legs should stay, but should look more ... botanic.
I had to convince him to repaint also the whole head, erasing the ugly painted vines in her face, give her a red lippstick and a much darker red hairtone as the original one was orange. The costume got a darker green tone and a drybrush with a light green.
Gave her also a green nail polish.
Of course everything was done after I took the figure appart and after sanding all necessary parts to provide paint rub.
The missing breast cover was sculpted with Apoxy Sculpt, the figure was primered, got a head to toe paintjob, was sealed afterwards and reattached.
And so, after some enerving fine line painting Poison Ivy (classic look) was done!
Enjoy and feel free to leave a comment!

It was a very satisfying result for a first try on a female character with skintone painting

I personally like figures with more articulation, but damn if this isn't one of the nicest Poison Ivys I've seen. Great work!

I´m a big fan of Marvel Legends / DC Universe Classics and only collecting figures with more articulation, we have this preference in common cbrocustoms . But as I mentioned, in this case it was a comission work for a friend and he wanted this specific Poison Ivy base. He´s mostly after DC Direct figures so she fits perfect in his collection. Thanks a lot for the kind words.

Thanks, claytonemery. The leaves were actually there before, I just worked them out better by setting more contrast in the colours.
