Very nice.

I keep forgetting that the Preds have been visiting Earth for a long time now.

Yeah but, given the horse & the fact that he's spiked a predator head rather than a human, I doubt he's on earth.

The horse is rather detailed as well isn't he... (http://myhome.hanshin.ac.kr/ohhara/evil/photo/ap/22.jpg)

Takeya is one of the greatest sculptors in the world. He was KING of the garage kit for years. No one does true detail quite like him.

Heh heh... maybe I should look at the pics a little more closely next time! :redface:

I'm the only one who isn't very impressed. I don't like the color sheme,
especially the red 'alien horse' bugs me. Plus the head of the horse reminds me too much of an alien. This may be intentional, but it dosn't work for me.
Also the Predator's head could have better proportions. I know it is stylized, but it could be better IMO.
However I like the armoring. Also the details work is well done. The pose and sense of movement work very well.

Takeya did much better stuff. Just my opinion.

Over the years I have come to understand that I am somehow much more attracted to Japanese sculptors and their style than with the average company doing superheros.

Bizarre and extreme is much more up my alley I think and them Japanese is good at that.

I should probably find a different board for my needs :bawling:, but I don't want to... not yet at least

mabye I should start my first poll :laugh:

Same here. And I also find the horse to be overly detailed, if you know what I mean :inquisiti
