Aztec princess mini - at least that's what I'm calling her. I've had this mini around my work desk for literally years. The packaging is long gone, and if you know my note taking skills, you know I don't have any... So no idea of the producer or the name of the kit.
She's about 28mm to her eyes, and 34mm to the top of her headdress. So this is actually past my size comfort range. Again being so old, I don't have any early pics of her - if I even took any.
This is the earliest shot from when I decided to finish her off a few weeks ago.
Doing a generic search, I came up with a lot of headdresses in the blue, green range. So that's what I did as well. Tho I don't know where an Aztec princess would find or want knee high leather boots...
The next thing was what am I going to have her stand on? I couldn't see just a simple 25 or 30mm circular base. Thinking of Apocalypto, I also couldn't make a giant temple, but I could do a small one.
So I got out my hot wire cutter and used a 1"X1" wooden block as a base. I drew bricks on it and a simulated stair. Next I created a background for her and looking up some Aztec designs, I found one that fit, that could be either a dragon head or fish. Haha I painted it a tan stone color and I was done. Thanks for looking.
