I couldn't find a thread on this so apologies if it's a double post.
With all the hype/drama surrounding Frazetta's Barbarian this week, I think this piece kinda got lost in the shuffle. Some new pics and info from Facebook last week:
"Here is also ARHIAN "City of Horrors" which is the title of the second chapter of her Graphic Novel. You will see that she wears this exact outfit with the cape and hood on the Graphic Novel, which is pretty cool!
The statue was totally painted by Arahom Radjah, and sculpted by Arahom and Ehren over a previous work done by Alex Pereira.
The statue features a removable magnetic top and will be up for pre-orders this weekend. ONLY the EX edition sold through the ARH website will come with the second head with no hood.
Also, the heads on the base are removable, and you can choose to display her with or without the heads, including the one she is holding."
They didn't mention it above, but the axe and sword also appear to be switch-out. I think she looks really damn good. The texture on the leather armor and ornate patterns on the plate parts came out nicely. I absolutely LOVE the wolf cloak. Very nice texture and it hangs very naturally. The original cloak shown in the video series was fantastic but I get why they had to revise it a bit. I think the new design came out very well done.
The additional heads on the base are definitely something new that wasn't shown before I think. Very cool and I like having the option to remove them. The base design looks very detailed and colorful. The autumn leaves, tree roots, and skulls are a nice touch.
The only thing I might have changed is perhaps dirtying or bloodying her up a bit. Maybe some scratches or cuts. She looks a bit too clean after a day of lopping heads off.
Overall though, I'm really liking this piece. I love my badass fantasy warrior women and with the amount of display options this statue brings, I'm definitely going to be planning to pick her up.
