Next up is Willie wearing Indy's tux, (she retains the fascinator and lipstick as she did in the movie until the conclusion of the wild raft slalom). She also needs a re-paint.

Here's a rarely seen one,and she is a W.I.P.( not woman in prison, work in progress)... Willie as seen in the luxurious robe and pj evening combo once settled into Pankot... she wears it up until she is dangled over the fryer as a would-be sacrifice)

And lastly... Inky_skin made me a fantastic Willie over a year ago in disheveled Indian sacrifice garb as she escaped with Indy and Shorty from the Pankot diamond mines. Once the paint started to wear from my penchant of posing and repositioning the trio in their mine cart, I decided to add the sequin detail to her costume to cover up that my white paint did not blend with his as it should. I also sculpted a three-tier belt as seen in the movie, as the one Inky originally fashioned was madeof sculpey,and crumbled after a couple of handlings. (insert 'handling Willie' joke here
)

Here are the three custom, still in-progress Willies I have made, plus Inky's awesome build with my paint additions. In addition to a club Indy and Lao Che, I want to have a more pose able temple Indy for the bridge and mine scenes, (Hasbro is severely limited below the waist). Club Indy will have to have a lot of G.I. JOE pieces, or else a figure closer to the 4 inch scale than Hasbro's I.J. line, in order to match the taller, longer-torso'd Willie. I focused on the Willie figs because she has the most costume changes by far, and each scene I have worked with either Raiders or torn shirt Indy, and Shorty both, but the lady looked wildly out-of-place in the static Hasbro incarnation... plus she is my favorite Indy Girl by far, and I enjoy looking at her in any form.
