Gilded Oligarch Tatyana Alexandrova
I got this Tatyana as a preorder before I actually saw how she looked like. When I got her I was disappointed, there was a clear mismatch between the head and body color, her eyeshadow had round shape under her eyes, which made her eyes look... round; I thought she looked funny. Plus, she was one of just two dolls that did not come with long nail hands on that convention. Main villainess without long nails - makes no sense. So it was off with her head, Secret Garden Eugenia got her body and I planned to sell her head, I liked her outfit and kept it.
Few years later I was still looking at her head in "for sale" box and I thought, OK lets do something about it.
1. She got Glamour Coated Elyse body which is much better match than her original body. I would say a 95% match.
2. She got dragon nail hands and I painted nails in green to match her eyeshadow.
3. I removed very carefully a portion of green eyeshadow below her eyes, which now made her eyes look more cat shaped and less round.
Of-course had to add famous Eye of Prussia ring. If you missed Heist convention storyline which introduced this villainess to FR world, I suggest reading it, I just love it.
While doing all of this, I realized how much potential this sculpt has. It has very good proportion and some nice details. Too bad we see it so rarely... This is my only 2.0, I might try to add more to my collection.
