Dark Alice Stl

Wonderland has been reimagined as a nightmare often enough that the gothic Alice is practically a subgenre of her own: the pinafore and the hair ribbon kept, the innocence stripped out, and something considerably less friendly waiting at the tea table. This is that Alice, treated as a survivor of the place rather than a visitor to it. The subject gives a painter a great deal to do, because the whole appeal lives in the contrast between a child's storybook costume and everything the character has evidently been through since she fell down the hole. The download runs to a substantial multi-part kit rather than a single figure, which suits a larger display piece with some presence to it. One for collectors of dark-fantasy fan art, and for anyone whose shelf already leans in that direction.
