I convinced her that it'll go GREAT with all my Red Sonja Statues that I own! I only showed her some of the pics, the ones that is focused on the portrait and less of the actual body and the pose .. LOL.
Good luck to all who still need to convince their wives!
This was going to be my 'Go To Excuse' though: "Buying and holding it for a friend." if she didn't agree to the purchase.

I'm a bulging artist?
I'm a big fan of the movie Titanic and that scene inspired me.
My junk made me do it.
I am buying this as an investment.
Drunk purchase!
Buying and holding it for a friend.
Our son bought it?
Our daughter bought it?
I thought it came with clothes?
Look she's holding a gun!!

Now that is funny . Look, she's holding a gun!...is exactly what I said to my wife when she started to react to the "pornographic" nature of the piece lol.

If your wives/girlfriends cant appreciate a stunning, strong female statue/character I feel for you. If this way sculpted in marble by DaVinci and sitting in a museum, they would call it “art”
Oh wait. It IS art.
The American prudish social system is so annoying.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

No wife, so no worries.
If for some reason I had to give an excuse, not that I should because it's my hobby.
It would be that Dejah is Princess of Helium on Mars. I really love the entire John Carter book series from Edgar Burroughs. The Dejah statue looks amazing, so I bought it.

Thank goodness I don't have to ask permission to buy any statue I want. And no, that doesn't mean I'm single either.

Hey I agree with you! I have tons of amazing life drawings that I've done over the years and would love to display some of them. My wife appreciates fine art and museum exhibitions like no one else I know, but she would quote Indiana Jones on this one...It belongs in a museum.

Maybe I should’ve monetized my channel before the convention. That video would’ve paid my hotel bill!

Those chains are terrifying me now. I feel this is no way this doesn't arrive with scuffs.
