After looking at the two different Aurra Sing miniatures available I decided to have a go at creating my own…I just wasn’t sold on either of them. So I picked up a Dark Side Acolyte as my base figure and I also had an Asajj Ventress I got for 99¢ lying about and used that for her head.

Being that Asajj Ventress is bald it was just a matter of making her hair and adding an antenna. I created the antenna using a sewing pin and oddly enough I made her hair from a Lord of the Rings Rohan horse tail…the stuff you find in your bits drawer, hehe. I also replaced her raised arm’s lightsaber with a blaster from the left over Mon Calamari Mercenary that was used to create Jedi Vebb. Like I always say, don’t throw it away…who knew that a horse tail and a headless mercenary would come in handy for this project? The sniper rifle was another piece I had in the parts drawer that was just glued to her back.

For the paint scheme I went with her traditional red outfit even though the clothing is different between the two characters. Not my smoothest paint job, my MS has been giving my fingers a work out…but I can always go back later and fix up the poor spots.

And here she is next to her buddy Cad Bane (yes, I blew my birthday cash on the official model…I am such a tool).
