Wonder Woman
My solution to the seams on the flesh was to paint the costume first, mask it, then glue on the face and left arm. I rubbed some opalescent pigment into the costume to make it silky looking, which ended up giving a nice blue sheen to the red but kind of lost on blue. It was locked in with semigloss lacquer.
I snipped off the mounting pins on the back of the face and trimmed the block on the hair in order to address the neck seam and add the hair later. All seams were filled with CA. I need better brushes and paints if I'm going to do more figures, as the eyes were kludged.
To assure there was no chance of phantom seams, I glued up all two-part subassemblies a week before I intended to build the kit and let them thoroughly go off. Can't tell there is a seam running down the front of each leg, can you? Flesh was painted with Alclad white primer/Tamiya Flesh /drop of red mix and shaded with Tamiya clear red/clear orange/clear varnish mix.
