I am of course talking about the salvager/ganger type from Reaper.
How easily removable is her head? Just looking around the 'net seems to suggest that she is herself a one-piece model, which is mildly irritating, but I'd rather check before I make a blind purchase. :P
EDIT: I'd be more interested in preserving the head than the body, if that makes much difference.
It'd be a right pain, but doable. (Have you got a good razor saw?) You'll lose a little of her left jaw, but that should be easy enough to re-sculpt. You'll need to give her half a neck as well, if you plan on putting her head in a different position. The good news is that head and body should both survive mostly intact if you're careful, particularly if you're not too fussed about preserving her ponytail-thing.
Hope that's of some assistance! ;D
Well, it is, and means I won't be doing many conversions with her head any time soon. Thanks though.
EDIT: By which I mean, I'll have to start hunting around for a similar, but more easily usable, female head that has a decent ponytail for a conversion I was thinking of doing. I can unfortunately eliminate Jena Orechiel as hers is huge and impractical, and I'm reticent to use Barbaretta's head as I was already planning to use her body (that, and her facial aesthetics don't match up with what's in my head).
was it a braid or a ponytail you were after?
am currently sculpting both so could do a quick guide / do a seperate peice you can have ?
Eh, I'm looking more for a head than just a hairpiece, but it'd be a ponytail. Either would work, mind, depending on what I can dredge up off the interwebs.
I am, however, near-hopeless with the green.

I am equally helpless with greenstuff and have encountered a similar problem with my own efforts for female model making.
Enter, stage left, the Preiser 1/32 nudes. These are 1/32 scale packs of body parts in relatively high-quality palstic sprues. There is the "Adam" pack and the "Eve" pack. They each consist of 6-7 complete figures broken out by part--head, torso, arms, legs. I also found that the 1/24 scale is acceptable for larger-than-life individuals (like Marines, Mutants, and Daemonic-enhanced humans). They are reasonably priced. A quick search will probably turn up one or two eBay auctions for them and 2-3 online stores that carry them in stock. I wouldn't pay more than $45 for a kit, but I have found them pretty useful.
