This is my rendition of Queen Vexus, evil tyrannical ruler of the Robot World, Cluster Prime. She is determined to conquer Earth, and in doing so, defeat or convert her rival, XJ-9, better known as Jenny Wakeman. These are characters from the Nickelodeon series My Life As A Teenage Robot, which has long since been cancelled.
Being a cartoon drawn in flat space, and being a rather whimsical character design at that, this model cannot stand up on its own, and requires a base and a support rod.
I have a hard time working with small models, so as printed, Vexus stands about 12 inches tall.

Things You'll Need to Finish Vexus
Although you don't alwasys see them in the TV show, Vexus has transparent Insectoid wings on her back. I cut them out of a flexible vinyl page protector, and glued them on with CA. Her floating crown sphere is held up by the smallest spring still rod I had on hand. Her entire figure is held up with a 1/16 inch steel rod, cemented in place with CA. I did hand paint her head yellow, along with her eye and mouth details.
