No, actually it doesn't.

In other news, CC has got to make a 3rd variant now:

Unnecessary massive bases with nameplates are the best!

Anything you say about Chronicle products is jaded, biased and quite frankly nonsense. Your opinion is not one to take seriously because your actions and post over the years have classified you as a YES man for this company, a promoter.

This is an exaggerated Weller portrait hence why I said it looks like Dredd. The lips are way too big. They never appeared this large in the film. You have to look at the exposed face the lips never took up this much surface area on his exposed face...but what do I know. I’ve only see the movie a couple hundred times.

And it’s going to look Ridiculous if these giant DSLs are painted red like the 1/2 bust.

Funny, same could be said of you, just you are doing the opposite. I am not sure how you survived the troll bans a while back. Saying you are wrong when you clearly are is not being jaded, looks nothing like Sly. And please stop quoting pics like a newb.

I think that base looks fine now with the bottom section taken off.
Looking forward to seeing this painted, CC did an excellent job painting the half scale robo's.

Not at all. I call it as I see it. I have no horse in this race. Unlike you, I don't play favorites.

If something is off, I speak up. You, "a promoter" of a Chronicle find this very troubling and try to say I am trolling, which is not the case. I am supporting my opinion with logical reasoning, it may seem inflammatory to you, but that's only because you're a Chronicle YES man.

Who's talking about Sly, i'm not. I'm comparing this portrait to Comic Dredd as it looks a little animated due to the proportions of the lips compared to the rest of the face & head.

within two seconds of seeing the Murphy face I noticed it looked off. Specifically the volume of his lips. they are too plump, too big. In my experience likeness ALWAYS appears sharper when a piece is blank and unpainted. The issue I am talking about is going to be very apparent when the face is painted, and at that point it will be too late. But Chronicle can do whatever they want to do they pay big bucks to make these pieces, I just don't want to see them do what they did the paint on the 1/4 Endo, paint on Pops, Paint on the Breakout rex, paint and jaw position on the male rex bust, paint and jaw position on the female bust, paint on the 1/9 raptor statue...am I missing anything?
