How are you coming on that one? I hope you went with the funky hat and snow goggles
I know a bunch of guys who would want one, including J (the guy who painted my Decimator bust and my Vampirella).

You should reconsider on the Decimator bust, pictures never do it justice. For one thing it is HUGE. it is way bigger than standard busts, I think it is about 9" tall. Once I get mine back from J I will post it next to other statues so you can see its scale. Also, like I said, it ALWAYS looks much better in person (I have no idea why) the detail of the armor is hard to see in pics but in person it is amazing. I will also post pics from the back and sides when I get it back.

The column, the head piece, the color of dress, the pose, it is obviously meant to be based on the painting.
Since ReelArt started to do actual Frazettas (along with Bowen DD and CS Moore stuff) I don't look as hard for these things as I used to. I bought a "Cylena" once with the intention of having her painted as the Sea Witch but then saw one that Nuff had painted as Storm and liked the African American look so I had Saul Alvarez paint her black instead of like Frazetta's Sea Witch. What do you think of this one FG Dave?

I love this one too. More pics of that chained chick though!

I'll see what I can do, but I'll post them somewhere else. I started this thread in William Paquet's section to show my appreciation of his great sculpting and I shouldn't be clogging it up with pics of other sculpts, I just go off topic sometimes.
Also, when I get the busts back from Liquid I will post pics of all of them together so you can see sizes and so on. Also I will post pics from different angles, especially on the Decimator bust so you can see the detail on the back of the sculpt as well.

His name is J Johnston, or "Liquid" on the forum. His website is at www.girlsgunsandmonsters.com

Wow, love the sensuality that the sculptor brings out on the Cylena (is that the name of the piece?). Great art pieces you have there TNovak!
