KULL OF ATLANTIS-CS MOORE STUDIOS
After i got infected with the statue Madness I found myself getting introduced to new characters and some fantastic sculpts,The sculptor that first amazed me was Clay moore,I Honestly feel that he is a modern day Michaelangelo of the collectible world,his sculpts have this aesthetic quality that I have'nt seen with any other sculptor.The detailed anatomy, the captured grace and the Sculpted Fluidity are his signatures that is meticulously added in each and every sculpt of his.
The statue that I chose to review Today is KULL of Atlantis and have waited a Year for the release,it's easily a Modern Day masterpiece,I have tried to capture its splendor with my crappy cam but have failed miserably
Sculpt-10/10
Whatever Clay was aiming for he hit it on the spot ,if you have read his blog about the statue you will find out that each and every aspect of the statue has some reason and an imaginative story behind it ,he has literally sculpted a 3 D Novel with each piece of clothing and accessory and weapon telling a different story ,there are so many things that this statue tells you even though its just standing still.
When it comes to Anatomy ,Clay is second to none,the vascularity ,the tense muscles and the proportions are phenomenal and in my opinion have set a benchmark for sculpts in the Collectible market
*Note the Forearm and the hand sculpt below,thats the level of detail I have rarely seen before on a collectible statue and only a handful of sculptors can achieve that quality of work.

I agree with her!
Great review!
I have had the same thoughts of Michaelangelo and CS Moore.
