Gaze Into the Mirror and Witness Kabuki’s Evil Queen
December 11, 2013 by dracs
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the fairest miniature of them all? Why, it's none other than Kabuki's Evil Queen who will be getting released next month.
The Evil Queen will be the next of the fairy tale inspired Big Sister miniatures to see the light of day, swiftly followed by her nemesis White Snow. According to Kabuki they like bad girls so decided to go with queenie her first.
As with all the Big Sister sculpts the miniature looks superb and I am particularly impressed by the folds of the cape being held aloft by a bat. What I find most interesting though is the level of detail on her base. From the mirror to the apple, it contains many references to her fairy tale story leaving you in no doubt of who this is.
Do you think she is the fairest in all the land?
The cape held aloft by the bat is a fabulous touch – the sculpting is great. I assume that is the eponymous apple in front of the mirror?
Clever nod to Disney and the birds putting out the washing when the animals help Snow White clean the dwarves’ cottage, and Cinderella iirc birds help her dress making.
