Helder's COLOSSUS painted

[Danno]

Hey All,

Well, I have finally finished painting the 2nd 1/2 of the charity auction pieces
the Colossus sculpted by Helder. The first 1/2 was Nightcrawler (sculpted
by Helder) and this was the companion piece. This is really a great sculpt
with a nice stylized sharp crisp edge look and feel to the design that really
makes it unique and lends itself to the character.

I hope you all had a very nice Holiday and thanks for stopping in to peek!

This piece is one of my earlier sculpting. It was sculpted back in 2002.
