Huck Gee has just announced a mini run of his newest custom: Hotura Copter Squad - "Copter Girl," which is the direct follow-up to last month's announced "Copter Boy" piece. Once again, Gee's immaculate paint job is only surpassed by his ability to craft superb accessories, everything from the hand-tailored overalls down to her pair of Geta (wooden-base sandals), from helicopter pack with it's tiny bird topper to her ultra-realistic aviation goggles, from the firework she's clutching to the gourds with 火 (the kanji for "fire") emblazoned on them.

Per usual, Gee has written an intricate backstory for the character as well:

Ah, Copter Girl, don't let her cute demeanor fool you. Her brother's equally talented, tough as nails, troublemaking younger sister was often the ringleader in their mischievous endeavors. And being Whisker's favorite, she would use that charm to wiggle her way out of many a punishment. Not to be content with simply dodging the chore, she would perch herself on a nearby window ledge, fresh apple in hand, to gloat her nimble charms and favored position over her toiling brother. His little sister meant the world to him but oh how he hated when she would do that.

Copter Girl, the motivator of the hotaru copter building, formerly bumbling, later high flying, Three Wars tide turning monkey duo.

Gee has hand-crafted ten copies of this custom, each available directly from him for $875. While all copies normally are reserved rather quickly, you can contact sales@huckgee.com to determine availability and reserve a copy if possible.
