Anyone here a fan of the original Knights Kingdom theme from 2000? Is anyone also a fan of constraction figure? Well I am so I mashed the two together.
I had bought a second copy of the Praetorian Guard for another project but was left with the red skirt piece. It didn’t take long for me to know what I wanted to do.
The custom torso may not be the best “paint” job but I’ve never been good with paint so I got no excuse for the rough job.
for reference as this is the fig it’s based off of.
Also side not this was one of my first minifig I got as a child and has been probably my favorite.
It definitely speaks for this MOC that I immediately recognized that minifig in it. I think I got that princess knight in a set on christmas 2000… Should even have pictures of it with the box on them somewhere. I also seem to remember that that minifig had a name? Not sure, though. Irene? Irina?
Thanks! Yeah the helmet isn’t to great, I tried to make it look as much like the helmet/visor piece from the minifig but that proved to be rather difficult.
I love this idea of turning minifigures into constraction figures. Though the painting on the torso isn’t the best, it conveys the printing well. I also love the boots on her, and how they partially wrap around the shin armor. Great MOC!
Thanks! I’m glad you liked he boots as I believe they were the last thing I added. With the regular feet by them selves just look to much like regular shoes.
My reason for the shield choice is actually because it was close to the original minifig’s shield. I do admit the colours do clash and even as a kid a thought so but I went for a more accurate representation rather than a more eye pleasing shield.
