The butt-ugly Emma Frost figures that Hasbro released upon us were languishing on the aisles, clearanced as far down as $3.50. For that price, I could find some way to make her work as a custom. I hope.
When Phyla took on the mantle of Quasar, they had her channeling a pretty big Joan of Arc vibe. I knew I wanted to include the quantum sword construct, so I took a sword and sculpted the details around it.
Honest to goodness, I don't remember the specifics of this recipe (its old).

Let me know what you think.
