What paint color/brand did you use on Emma? It looks like it matches perfectly with the blue on her costume.

Pearl Ice blue acrylic paint from Docrafts Artiste.
Apparently it's a UK brand.

My husband repainted it with her Astonishing X-Men blue makeup as he already did it with the first white queen that I own too. I think it looks really nice. Better than the original painting in both case, that I found a little bit boring/plain for my taste (plus I like the Wedhon/Cassaday asto. run).

It is the X-Men version of Emma I was looking for.

Here are some pictures of this Emma and the white queen original PF repainted too.
Beautiful!

Best version by far imo for this character. Try taking some pics with less bright light. The bright lights don't do this justice. Congrats! She looks great!

I still prefer this Emma Frost
Given the current situation, Sideshow have left themselves much room to improve. There will be another in the future.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Very nice!! I may do the same to mine, but I never repainted any of my statues myself, but I think this Emma would be a perfect chance to do so.

I like the change you did Frayhor. Did your husband simply paint over the eyes and lips? Or did he completely repaint the whole face?

Emma Frost - another character that Sideshow just can't seem to get right. None of them have hit the mark IMO. The AH version spot on for his cover, but isn't the Emma for me.
