Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I think I erred in my previous post about your question, I had thought Past Future Fog was the only statue based on a Royo painting, but Sideshow has "Medusa's Gaze" that you can see here

The one you see in the pics is vastly improved over the factory version thanks to a much needed paint job upgrade by Tom (RiderV3 on the forum). The factory paint wasn't very good on this. Up until a few months ago this was still available from Dark Horse, but finally sold out. It is only 9" tall so the paint on the face in particular looked very un-lifelike. It looked more like a doll or something. Tom did a fantastic job on this and I get a lot of compliments on it.

Thanks man
Thanks for the info. I really love Royo's work. I picked up the Medusa's Gaze right away, she's quite lovely. I'm interested in finding some other Royo pieces. RiderV3 really did a great job on the Past Future Fog, as you described. The office looks awesome by the way.

Take it easy,

Love it! I've been a Frazetta fan most of my life. As an artist myself he was one of my earliest and biggest artistic inspirations.
Have you gotten to see the original paintings? They are STUNNING. I live near the frazetta family and the museum is right here as well. (and all the family drama is like front page news around here! lol)
