Your fellow HISS tanker Cloud Strife made this custom G.I. Joe Lady Jaye.
“Here’s another Wry1 inspired custom, and this time it’s Lady Jaye!Despite the pain that the eyes were to paint, due to the brim of the hat, I really like how she turned out. I’m glad I ditched the 2-toned green ensemble I was originally going with for the monochromatic green, as it just simply looks better, IMO. I did sculpt a wife-beater under her button-up shirt, and the throat mic with the round pads on it (no idea what they’re called) along with the wire running between them and then one running up the side of her neck to her earpiece. It’s hard to see the details since they’re painted black and so small, but nonetheless, they’re there. I did sculpt the straps for the holsters and their clips as well.”

I have ordered the Slayer torso that Jedi Master Ben made based off of Wry1's art, but I got impatient and made due with what I had, lol. He did a stellar job on the head-sculpt though.
A couple of shots of her w/Flint
A couple of close-up shots trying reduce the shadow that's created on her face by her hat
Recipe:
Head - Slayer Design Studio
Torso, and Upper Arms - 25th Scarlett w/sculpting on the torso
Lower Arms - ROC Cover Girl
Hands and Legs - Renegades Scarlett w/ sculpting on the legs
Vest - Resolute Flint modified and a sculpted belt w/clip was added

Looks sharp. I bet it was fun squeezing in under that hat to paint the eyebrows.

I like the gear you gave her, but honestly, I hate that head, always have. She looks like a dude with that head instead of a woman.

Friggin' BRILLIANT job mate.
Something I've always wondered, since the first time I opened up basketball-headed Scarlett and held her next to Breaker in 1983, but wouldn't it be nice if the girls were just that little bit shorter than the boys?
I'm not sure of her exact dimensions, but Lady Jaye is probably a head or so shorter than her paramour there, yet the toys are almost the same height.
I know sweet f*ck all about customising and sculpts and all the other stuff (though I really want to learn) but I'm curious, how hard would it be to make her shorter? Like those weird surgeries in Thailand, would you take it out of her shins? Would you have to carve off and redrill the holes in the knees?
Just something to think about.
Again, friggin' brilliant job on that customisation. I don't really like any of the Lady Jayes out there, but I'd pay for that one in a heartbeat.
