Title: Captain Boadicea - aeronef commander
Post by: Melnibonean on 09 August 2011, 01:18:55 PM

This is a new release - Captain Boadicea of the Imperial Aero Corps . I'm planning to make some crew soon wearing a similar looking uniform.

I tried to make this figure several times but it just didn't work. I decided to look at WWI and the RFC for inspiration and came up with this outfit. In keeping with that era I decided to give her a 1920' flapper hair style instead of the regulation steampunk goggles. The collar and corset as well as the cane and spyglay sort of throw her back to a pre-WWI time.

Nicest FF release that I've seen so far

Actually, she reminds me of some early imported-to-the-US anime.

I think I could follow her most anywhere. Crickies, I suppose I should be get a ship built; she won't put up with waiting!

Edit: Whoa, I just realized she REALLY reminds me of Captain Amelia from Treasure Planet. ;->= Good thing the coat's not long in back, or I'd be wondering...
