As I promised in my other thread, I finished her this morning and the photo is up at my site. So please stop by the Tree-house and have a look. Please give an honest reply and any tips would be helpfull. I know were to go for "cool" and "nice". Heres the link www.freewebs.com/chewcracca/new.htm

I'm not familiar with this version of Leia but it looks real good. What did you use for a base?
another question, what'd you use for the head?

Thank you los5o7, I have added the reference photo I used to the website now. The parts came from just 2 figures, the head (with resculpted hair), lower arms and skirt, came from the recarded Leia. The torso, upper arms and legs or from the Droid Factory Chase Padme. The tabards and belt were sculpted on with air-drying clay, and was the first time I've used it. And cheers Scott too

Looks real good Chew!
The Boots and Robes look real good, you did a good job on them, the only thing I would change is the red lightsaber!

The reason for the red saber, is because that is what colour she uses in the NJO books. Well it's actually described as a crimson blade. I was going to give her a purple blade like in the photo. But standing next to Jaina on my shelf, who also has a purple saber, just looked naf. So she's on dislay with just the hilt at the moment.
I'd like to thank you all once again for good honest feed back ;D
