Iron Raven Custom Action Figure

After seeing Warhawk in the Batman Beyond cartoon I wondered where he got the idea for his suit's design. He most likely saw Hawkgirl in Thanagarian battle armor, and fashioned his own after it, so I made her in the suit she might have worn. I didn't want to call her Hawkgirl though since she definately is not a girl. I could call her Hawkwoman but Iron Raven sounds so much more threatening.

-Most of the armor is bits and pieces borrowed from Boromir's and Omega Red's armor. The three tubes on each wrist can fire an array of different projectiles. Ranging from basic concussion grenades and nets to more advanced immolation pods and armageddon rockets, the weapons are designed mainly to control mobs of enemies when one-on-one combat is impossible. Additional ammunition is kept on her belt, which is adorned with the image of a black hawk in a field of red.

-The mace was made with Iolaus's spiked ball, Skullsplitter's longsword's handle, and a thin leather strap to loop it on a belt-hook. The wings are from a Total Justice Hawkman. Best of all, they are already shaded. I managed to make them poseable! It involved some pliers, a wire, and a screw and the hair covers the contraption perfectly. I'm also going to make some metal wings for her, like Warhawk's.

-The hair is from some elf from LOTR. It was black so I drybrushed it with red and it turned out fabulous. The mask I had to sculpt entirely with Sculpey. I was going to make the standard "hawk-hair" but what the hell, I can always do that later. I gave her more of a Rocketeer-style helmet. I left her eyes un-covered so I made silver-foil covers for her eyes but they didn't show up well in the pictures. I just made them white with photoshop but when I get some good lighting I'll take another face-shot so you can see how cool the eyes look.

Yes! All of them actually! Especially Team Rocket! I've got an entire Eevee team and they need trainers to prey upon, I mean, to be trained by :P
