Always on the lookout for more figures from the distaff side in 1/32, this figure of Queen Miranda caught my eye. She is a perfect match for other 54mm figures. However, the lot I purchased her with also included her consort King Roland. After some thought, I drafted him into my collection as well. My sister helped choose which outfit he should don for his royal duties: the red coat with the light buff breeches, accented by several medals.
While his outfit looks vaguely Regency, he still belongs in the Redcoats and Ruffles world of the 1770s-1780s. While tighter cut coats were coming into fashion in the 1780s, this one is still ahead of its time. Likely as a monarch, King Roland was always seeking up-and-coming styles.
Figures from Disney’s “Sofia the First” collection. They were painted with a mix of acrylic and enamel paints and sealed with Mod Podge.
