Electrocute

[1987olds442]

Since Marvel bought out Malibu Comics and with it the Ultraverse I figured the Ultraverse characters would be welcome here This is an update to an earlier custom that I made of an Ultraverse character called Electrocute. Electrocute is an android that gained sentience and the power to generate electricity in the Jumpstart event.

Electrocute's body is made mostly from a DCUC Crime Syndicate Superwoman and Star Sapphire lower legs. I had to re-sculpt the back to remove the huge cape peg on Superwoman, and I modded the waist and legs to try and reduce the square waist look on the DCUC females when the legs are posed. For the costume lines I used thin strips of styrene. When I first made Electrocute I didn't have a lot of parts built up in my fodder bins, so I was limited on the selection of hair pieces that I had to choose from, so originally I used Superwoman's head with Mary Marvel's hair.

This week I decided to refresh this custom and give her an update. One of Electrocute's features was the big hair, so after going through my fodder bins I found a hair piece that I thought would work really well for her. The hair is from a WWE figure but I couldn't tell you from which figure, and the new head is from a DCUC Power Girl. I touched up the flesh tones on the body and head a little, and painted the new hair. I also applied a dullcoat to the gold and a gloss coat to the greens. So what do all think?
