The standing figure waits on a round stone flower bed full of blue flowers, holding her staff low in one hand and a small suitcase in the other. She has silver twin tails, long pointed ears with red drop earrings, large green eyes and a flat, slightly weary expression. She wears a white capelet and tunic trimmed in gold over a striped shirt, a dark belt with a square buckle, dark leggings and banded brown boots. The staff has a crimson shaft and a gold crescent head holding a large red gem, with a red cloth wrapped where the crescent meets the shaft. The second piece is a red treasure chest with brass bands, its lid propped open on rows of ivory fangs, with the same mage swallowed head-first: only her tunic, her folded legs and boots and the ends of her twin tails stick out of its mouth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the kit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e11 resin pieces in total.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStanding figure, 4 pieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e the head with the hair and twin tails, the body, the hand with the staff and the hand with the suitcase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase, 1 piece:\u003c\/strong\u003e the round stone flower bed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreasure-chest mimic, 6 pieces:\u003c\/strong\u003e the chest, the open lid with its fangs, the mage's tunic, her folded legs and boots, and two twin-tail ends.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStudio size, standing figure:\u003c\/strong\u003e 112 mm (4.41 in) tall, 87 mm (3.43 in) wide and 73 mm (2.87 in) deep (from Tanuki Figures' notes file for this kit).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTreasure chest:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45.7 × 33.3 mm (1.80 × 1.31 in) footprint in the sculptor's file.

Your printed kit can differ slightly: resin shrinks a little as it cures, removing supports and sanding takes off some material, and the assembled height depends on how the parts are fitted. Treat the numbers as a close guide, not an exact guarantee.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSkill level: intermediate\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe head is most of the standing figure's weight.
