Well then I will add in fairness to Saul (who is one of the best painters I know) the pics that I have posted of mine and that Wombat shared don't do it justice. I don't know if it was the flash or what but his beard isn't fire engine red like that in person and just about everything looks way better when you see it on my shelf. I should have someone who is a decent photographer take better photos.

Wombat said there is a guy using my pics on ebay and trying to sell one so I checked it out. Not only is it not this paint up (obviously) it isn't even the 1/6 Frazetta statue, it is a "masters series" PVC Dark Kingdom, which I have too, and cost about $14.99 new and are very cheap. It is like 5" tall. You can see one on ebay here

They did 9 of them. The one Snow Giant, Destroyer without any enemies, Dark Kingdom, Sea Witch, one of the Huns sans a horse, Conqueror standing and looking ridiculous, Barbarian, and Princess of mars standing.

That's the one. He is using my poor photography of my statue to try to sell one of those masters series PVC 5" things and he is asking $80. He is in for a negative rating I think if he sells it. I sent him a question about it but he didn't respond.

What an A-Hole. This guy needs to be reported.

I sent the guy a message. He changed the pictures. And good luck getting $80.

I think Steve Lord sculpted that. I worked with him at McFarlane for years. He's so freaking good. look at me getting in on the O/T action lol

That is correct. He also sculpted the 1/5 scale DD in the swamp. I do know that Frank Sr absolutely loved Steve's work and I am very happy with the sculpt of my Dark Kingdom and with the repaint I love it. When it came to "style" Frank Sr really wanted the "loose" sculpt look for his work and Steve did what he asked. My only gripe with DD in the swamp was that without the tree and croc for context the gritted teeth and pose look kind of weird to me.

Yes back on topic, I'll admit when I saw the creature sculpt in the background in one of the "slaying the beast" videos I thought it was going to be "At Earth's Core"



But this one is awesome too.
