I didn't make this one, my wife did. She used a barbie as the base figure then painted it red and black. The paint wasn't sticking so good cause barbies legs are made out of rubber but it stuck after a second coat. She ended up cutting off her legs to make her fit into the foam box that she painted as the Aces. She left the pig tails long to give the figure a more mature look. She ended using a red fabric shirt that she painted black.
