DC's "BIRDS of PREY" series gets their own line of action figures.


Batgirl (Cassandra Cain): After taking over the mantle of Batgirl from the Huntress, Cassandra has become one of the more interesting Bat characters. I've seen several customs, but most don't fit in scale wise. Cassandra is roughtly 16-17 and isn't as tall as Batman, she is more Robin's size, so I needed a figure that would keep her height in scale and still have the lean and muscular body. I finally chose the X-Men movie Rogue in movie costume. After sanding off the ribbing and "armor", I filled in the areas with super glue and sanded them smooth. The glove spikes, belt, and cowl are all Sculpey. I scaulpted the head to show the skin tight mask she wears, with stitching around the mout area and the detail of her nose and mouth. The eye area was filled in slightly with super glue. The cape is a modified animated series Bruce Wayne cape, cut to fit her and glued into place.
