I made this one about a year ago, but wanted to post her here. She is 4-time Olympic women's hockey player Angela Ruggiero as she appeared in the 2006 Torino games. The alternate captain "A" is creative license on my part. The coach didn't have alternates in 2006. Thanks for looking.

cool stuff, wonder if you shouldn't have increased the chest area? (Seriously) but maybe that isn't obvious when suited up. Also, how did you make the mask?

Rob, With gear on, you can't tell the boys from the girls...no augmentation required :) I spent months trying to find what I wanted for the mask. The wire mesh comes from a floor vent from a home heat/AC system at Home Depot. Not as pliable as I would like, but the scale of the mesh is very close to the cage she wears. Chin piece is from a Hasek.
