True that at this display option, IMO the best and only option, this statue is perfection.

It bothers me though that the only built out part of her is her back. Carry the muscular all the way through her body if the intent is to make it seem like she lives in the jungle like world she creates. (I decided that's the story they are trying to tell with the ripped shoulders...that Ivy climbs through her jungle and does a LOT of pull-ups)

Sculpt
The reg head, hair and her back are beautiful.
The actual ivy on her body looks nowhere near as detailed as the old piece.

Paint
Love the hair, face, skin and base.
The ivy on her body looks very bland compared to the old pf.

This is $235 more than the old one, does not feel like it to me.

I usually prefer Ivy to have a more natural skin tone, but I like the green they went with on the new one though. Looks more organic than the colour they chose for the variant.
Nice side by side pics! And ITA, the original "green with envy" was too minty a green for Ivy. Even though I enjoy a natural skin Ivy, this new statue is the perfect shade of toxic, botanical green.

I would really love to have that statue. Strange too, because I usually don't want female statues. My only nit-pick is that the ivy growing on her behind should look like it's growing downward. Not trying to be gross but it kind of looks like it's growing up and out of... "somewhere".

Regardless, it's very nice.

Totally agree.

Again, if anyone is great with Photoshop, I'd love to see a pic of this new PF in normal pale skin.

Makes no sense to me either. I think it just comes down to sideshow taking advantage of how popular the hobby has become. It's obviously working for them because they wouldn't keep increasing the prices if they weren't selling.

Sort of yes. Probably needs to be a little paler and a bit less red in the skin. Which app do you use?

I don't mind the muscularity. I just wish they could have given her waist a slightly more hourglass figure while keeping the muscularity intact.

Currently she has such a flat ass.




You can be crazy buff with a crazy ass, and if we're doing fantasy fictitious characters anyways, why not?

Case in point: Anllela Sagra
