Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

That paint application is incredible. Looks just as good as the prototype.

finally the 2 switch out

i'll do other pictures later and will come back if i see any issue but at first i saw nothing wrong, all came out nice.





Feel free to ask some pictures but i'll do them later this week end.
I' try to redo a shot for the regular (sorry "collector") face as this one is crappy.

Congrats Eky, she looks great!

That packing system is a huge improvement. Now do ebay sellers have to say both original boxes?

Yeah i think it depends on factories
at least the one that go through the HK warehouse may continue to use this double box system.

The tail touches nothing in the box so it's impossible to have it broken unless you completly destroy the styrofoarm and make the statue move. i seriously can't see how this could happen.

what's the texture where the spots are? it looks like maybe the spots are raised as well as a hair-type pattern? or is it flat and just painted

It's from the base sculpt and just painted.
The original sculpt is super cleverly and nicely done.
