A simple LBC of left over parts, Jinx still was a royal pain to make. This was mainly due to parts not fitting very well, forcing me to use alternatives.

These were the Sakura feet, wich I originally planned on using as they're a nice pair of red converse sneakers, making the whole red them work nicely. However, the SF figures seem to use a smaller size of ball joint than the other Microman figures I have, so the feet wouldn't fit, nor would the flesh coloured neck piece. This wasn't a real big problem though, but at the time caused great amounts of frustration.

I left the headband unpainted to make this custom as playable as possible, and have ditched some extra pieces of armour as they hindered posability and tended to make the arms come off at the bicep (these can be seen in JTV ep2).

Jinx is a very nice looking figure if I do say so myself, perhaps younger than she is normally portrayed, but she never really had much personality outside of the movie aside from being one of Snake-Eye's thralls (well, none that made a lasting impression on me anyway).

I may add a white dragon design to the skirt, mostly to cover up a small paint bubble that burst, but I might just leave it as is incase I screw up.
