Sailor Astera - Garage Kit Mod

Not entirely sure DA has a section for model kits but here ya go!

This is a 1/6 scale Sailor Pluto kit modded to be Sailor Astera. Everything is hand painted with acrylic except the skin which is model paint. Things I had to mod were the bows (filed them to make them the right shape for Astera) and the hair. I had to fill the hole where Pluto's bun would go and remove the pulled back hair parts and sculpt the hair style back. Benefits of having a very canonical looking fan senshi, tyvm

I had to make her brooch because the kit came with a round one. I pieced together her dagger from parts of Pluto's staff and sanded it to a point.

This is the first kit I've completed. I started one a few years ago of Sailor Moon but it was such a nightmare and I had no idea what I was doing so I never finished it. ^_^;

I've made a base for her but it still needs to be painted and stuff.

I'm smitten.
