The Queen of Heart (v2)
Off with her head…
After building Alice’s figurine, it would have been unforgivable not to bring up my much beloved Queen of Hearts.
If you are familiar with my photostream, you will notice that this is not a new moc, but an update of a 2018 version of her. At the time I was playing Fate Grand Order, and I reimagined the Red Queen as a heroic spirit, in the shape of a Ruler-class servant.
The Queen is my very first character to feature the 3676 anime head and has remained a long-lasting favorite of mine.
While she has aged phenomenally -I would not dare saying otherwise- the updated Queen features multiple minor improvements and takes advantage of new parts. As L.A. Miranda wisely suggested, I also removed some excessive decoration. Because, sometimes, less is more.
As a curiosity, I straightened the twin Hero Factory blades (part 11305) from the sword. These parts tend to be notoriously warped, and the sword had a weird shape that mortified me. After some experimentation, I used boiling water to soften the blades and rectify their shape.
