Nice addition with the metal swords! Two things, eyes are more brown than green and snake skin and snake mouth could have more gloss or slim on it. Doesn't take away from the statue at all this statue is still a stunning piece! Clean paint apps and dice details. Paint app on the skin looks authentic. Like it more than the rough skin on the proto.

Mine arrived without issue. She is gorgeous. Her arm magnets are strong. As spmeone that returned his Sabertooth due to weak and wobbly arms, I can say, these magnets, at least with mine, are great. Face is just stunning... and the hair, which I've been critical of lately, is cast very nicely. Extremely satisfied with this piece!

I had no idea the swords are metal. That's cool!
I prefer the satin or flat finish on the giant snake. Many snakes are flat and many are glossy. I think the large scales are more like a lizard or dragon and therefore should be flat. Also too much gloss will glare when lit and hide the paint and sculpt.IMO

No issues at all with my magnets. They are super strong! Nice pics SDguy! I love the goldish bronze on her shoulder armour and legs etc. They have a nice effect going on with them like tiger eye stones when I look at mine and it appears the same on yours.I agree with you absolutely gorgeous statue!

Yeah the sword have weight to them and are solid metal!!! That's a great point on the snake scale and skin! It makes sense and come to think of it, I'm liking it even more. It doesn't take away from this awesome piece.

If there is a female statue of the year category, this would have been a winner, no doubt.

Ordered mine today, my account states that this statue is in production. I guess I missed the first batch.
