It does, yeah. If it's not under a lot of light. Thanks for the pics.

Wasn't as impressed by the enlarged AH! Wonder Woman Cover Girl statue. I saw it in person and felt they should've added more detail to it at that size. It was perfect in the CG scale.

Well, a few years make a lot of difference. If you look at the AH! and Artgerm Zatannas, they're the same scale in the same statue line, but the AH! hair has much less detail than the Artgerm one. I don't blame the AH! sculptor, Jack Mathews, because his sculpt for the Artgerm Black Canary has very detailed hair.

Yeah. While I agree with gomur that the Designer WW should've had more sculpted detail to justify the upscaling (because the chunky hair is not even accurate to the cover it's based on), the detail difference between the Hughes Cover Girls statues and Artgerm ones isn't fair because the Hughes ones more stylized. If you look at how Hughes outlines his figures in thick contour lines, you can see the more angular style Matthews was trying to replicate. This is why the Hughes ones, IMO, look better for all angles whereas the Artgerm ones have one ideal angle--that admittedly is sometimes more flattering than the Hughes ones--but look awkward in others, such as with this Zatanna's face. The Amanda Conner Women of DC Universe bust represents a good middle ground between the two.
