Just a little freaky
I'm new to this forum, however I read it since a while.
I wanted to find a really 'classic Lara Croft figure', but -for my biggest surprise- did not find just very rare (so expensive) pieces or on the other end, 'newschool' Lara ones. But deep in my heart I'm still stuck with the original Tomb Raider...
So I decided to make my own. Kind of a basic kit for her.
Got a noname headsculpt from eBay and repainted it a bit, also styled the hair turning into the classic looking ponytail.
Sewed all the clothes, crotcheted the socks, repainted some boots.
I soldered the sunglasses (copper), also sanded the red lenses for it out of plastic.
Sewed a canvas backpack (however it's not totally finished yet, needs the pockets)
I wanted to give her some more accessories like a Golden Skull Relique and a Small Medipack
I made all of the things from 'Lara-accurate' fabrics (canvas, leather, metal, etc)
I took more 'in action' photos of her, might you've seen in a FB group but also can check here:

I'm curious all the opinions or suggestions!
And still enjoy making this stuff, so do not hesitate if you also would like one.
