THE MYA FUNKE CUSTOM TOY BY DSNG! - PART 2 [WITH HER AFRO PUFFS]

Finally got done with Mya Funke. And I personally like the results. Mya Funke is an Original Character from the DSNG Sci Fi Series. She is briefly presented in the ebook DSNG Book 19, which will be released later this year. And If you look carefully in the gallery bellow, you'll see at least one pic that matches that pose on the left!

Brief Character Bio:
Her full name is Mya Funke Inaki.  She hails from the mega state of Dalterland on Planet Avera, which is akin to a tropical continent; hence she has chocolate skin and her black hair is tied up in two afro puffs. And Mya is a tech whiz and a skilled acrobat, with limitless stamina. She also has another super ability per her family heritage, but I won't get into it right now. Her full name is actually of African origin. And the girly name "Funke" is actually Nigerian [pronounced in dual syllables as Foon-Kehh]... although here in the States we call it "Funk", which is fine.
Mya is one of the Mega-Wolves, a team of supervillains led by the rogue Alpha Senturi soldier named General Azaji. And the Mega-Wolves all hail from the Dalterland continent. And there are four city districts in Dalterland, namely Caldernia [the capital], Mahajah, Dalzeria and Tanzara.

Brief Toy Recipe:
The base figure was a mixture of Marvel Legends Enchantress [torso and heels] and MockingBird [top bust and the afro-puff head, which was repainted]. The two sculpted puffs are attached by magnets, so they can  be easily removed. And the second helmet-wearing head, featured in the second gallery, came from ML Captain Marvel Carol Danvers. Her legs came from Mockingbird as well. I did a lot of sculpt work on her and eventually gave her four guns. There is a magnet concealed on her left hip, and another magnet on her back, to help with the weapon storage. Tamiya  and Vallejo paints were used, and she was hand painted.
And yes, she is thick, and baby got back; that's part of her original design.
