I cant believe I got it all done.   :P

Here's my Ultimate Bastila Shan with mini-diorama.

FEATURES:
Pony tail:   Packing wire with copper wire wrapped around it to simulate the berret.
Base of skull:   Ball peg
Neck:   Home made ball peg joint.
Shoulder armor:   Hinge joint made with neoprene rubber.
Shoulders, and elbows are original ball joints from TBS Bastila.
Wrists: Ball pegs made from metal pins.
Torso:   Ball joint utilizing lower half of GI Joe Retaliation Lady Jaye.
Hips:    Standard GI Joe metal ball pegs.
Skirt.    Part of the plastic from the skirt was replaced with neoprene rubber. 
Thigh:   Home made swivel joint made from brad nails.
Knees:  Double hinge jounted.
Calves at boot level:   Home made swivel joints made from brad nails.
Ankle:   Rocker  joints
 That's 24 POA with the knees counting as two each.



Note the position of the ponytail here



 

 

 

Thanks ISYs.

Sjefke, That Bastila Shan is incredible. All the points of articulation are amazing and the attention to detalil on the face and hair are simply fabulous. This is certainly the "ultimate" version of the character.
