Title: Worst Bond girl ever
Post by: Michi on 14 March 2012, 11:12:07 PM
Not the most pleasant of female miniatures I find, but I tried my best to save her from the trash bin by slapping some proper paint on her...

She looks like a right 'slapper'  ;)  Uma Thurman when she's 60. Very nice flesh tones again.

I think she's an old Chinatown miniature.

What huge... hands!  lol

Not crazy about the base personally, but a great paintjob on an otherwise poor mini.  :)

Fantastic paint job  :-*
The skin tones and highlights are amazing!

The miniature itself, not so great.  :)

Fantastic and accurate depiction of the late Yootha Joyce. Never knew she was a Bond girl though.

You know, in her younger years Yootha Joyce was not an unattractive woman.

Was there even a "Worst Bond girl ever?" lol
They where all pretty good looking to me.
But when you are an old guy like me the mind starts to go. :o
Fine painting on not the best of figures.

Believe it or not, but the other "girl" in the pack, Sing Sing Girls, is even more homely!

Forgive the HUGE photo please!

This figure is starting to grow on me. (Insert punchline here...) I might have to see if I can find one. She'd make and excellent bodyguard for an over the top rock star or villain. Maybe even an over the top rock star who is a villain. There was a Bond parody movie years ago that starred Gene Simmons of KISS as a transvestite rock star who also wanted to take over the world. I think John Stamos was the hero. What was the name of that movie?

Here I am, enjoying my morning and catching up on a few threads, when a horrible realization sets in...

I've got this figure in the lead pile behind my painting desk, along with half a dozen other Chinatown figures.  lol

Nice work at gilding what was always an awful model. Most of Griffin's female models tended towards the butch and fugly though.

The worst Bond girl? Surely Tanya Roberts (View To A Kill) present company excepted.

Looking to sell? I'm still missing a few!

I agree with the sentiment but the title still has to go to Ms. Roberts as hopelessly miscast. A 100m airship managed to creep up on her!

Oh I dunno, a few pints, the romance of the local boozer and let's face it she has 'Alley knee trembler' written all over her...

You lot are just to damn picky.

That is because we dont actually get to pick, so we can afford to be. "Dont fancy yours much..."

Great painting, but the fig looks like Owen Wilson in a minidress.

Now that image is going to stay with me.
