It looks great, but why does it seam to be getting further and further from the art?

The dragon looked much better green. It gave some nice contrast to the figure.

I agree completely. With the amount of changes you've made here, you may as well just have started your own piece. The sculpt you have created, while nice, is so far from the concept art as to be unrelated. The clothes, the hair, the face, all are totally not respecting the original art. If you're going to sculpt something from an artist's works, you don't have the liberty of changing it beyond recognition. Do your own thing, or do what the artist conceived. You can't do both.

You missed the third option. Deviating from the original artwork with direction given by the original artist. Some artists do several variations of their artwork. I don't mind the deviation if done under guidance of the artist.

I think it looks better than the original art.

Wei, states she's to be released here soon, in PVC 1/6th scale, he said its a bit to much to do resin,
he's limiting the peace to a few hundred in PVC, resin right now, is not in his budget.
I for one am happy to hear she will be here shortly & can't wait for her to get here soon

I am not going to get this since it will only be in PVC.

I really have to agree , the art work looks allot better. Enough that I'm getting the framed one. I like the red dragon but i agree the green does make the statue more vibrant. I don't think they started the process of manufacturing these. So maybe there still time for changes. If not I still think it a great piece to have.
