Madame DuCouer - Grudging Pulp Adventuress

 

Madame DuCouer joins the 1930s Prolix Associates pulp group. Her origins are mysterious and her motives often seem to be at odds with the rest of the Associates. She is known to be the widow (there has been no proof she was involved in his curious demise) of an upper class Frenchman who may have been involved with dark magic. M DuCouer is known to have deep mystical knowledge and has taken an interest in Molly's education in those  weird arts. Some speculate that she is not human and this form is a disguise to hide her from forces beyond comprehension. 

The sculpting of her face is a little odd (maybe it's supposed to be a mask?) but I ignored that since it's mostly hidden. I struggled a little with fancy freehand on the back of her dress, but I think it eventually came out okay.

The feathers were a joy to paint with some light drybrushing and they add some flamboyance to her outfit. 

And below we have M DuCouer taking care of a rampaging scientist whom has fallen victim to his own experiment.
