That piece was made for molten metal.
Truly inspiring vision of Hell's patriarch, suitable for museums alongside master works of antiquity.

Absolutely, we'll sign it.
We are also happy to report that Richard Taylor of the Weta Workshop owns number 1 in the run. He assures us it sits in "pride of place" behind his desk in New Zealand and will be seen on any Weta movie special features or interviews with him. Too cool! Thanks Richard!

Did you do the bronze casting yourselves guys? How did that go?
Love how this piece looks too. There is something about bronze and statues.

We use the wonderful Deep in the Heart Art Foundry in Bastrop Texas. We work with these guys and go up there to oversee the patina process once the pieces are cast. These people are great craftsmen...
