The Axe handle let's the piece down. Everything else looks great. One of Sideshow's better pieces. Captain Marvel remains my no.1 ..Black Widow possibly rates no.2 when it comes to my collection and Sideshow 1/4 PF

I cant say the axe handle bothers me that much, looks ok when viewed from a normal distance and probably one of the last things people look at.
That Black Widow was a real tempting piece, but finances won out in the end, cant have everything.

What is wrong with the axe handle?

Maybe the slightly rough paint job on her fingers?

The hand/fingers and the choice of paint used for the painted brown leather strapping that runs the length of the Axe handle - the paint appears to be the same color as Sonja' hair, and glossy!
A darker matte brown as used on the Sword handle would have worked better.

I'm tempted to paint over the brown with a thinned down black, which might make the brown pop less.

A 100% light weight metal Axe + Handle with resin hand would have been amazing

Also, i've just noticed - Sonja's left arm, the upper inside area, is rough. Are they all like that?

I try not to over critique at that level of detail with statues from SideShow... life is happier that way...

Just checked mine, no issues with her arm...how rough are we talking here?
