"I have been working on this design for quite some time now. I always wanted to be able to paint my own base and I feel this design is the perfect fit for my style. Cute but kickass! The Lil’ Jammie figure is a hooded character in pajamas. I have always had a fascination with hooded characters. The mysteriousness of what is underneath the hood has always intrigued me. So I had to start with the hood. That’s the beauty of this base, it can be anything."
