Still its great to have something offered like this.

Bringing Frazetta art to 3D form is a huge challenge and some pieces will have to have some artistic interpretation as the details are purposely not sharp especially the portraits like Huntress and Warrior.
I saw the proto for Huntress in person at NYCC and it is a stunning interpretation.
Another example of the challenge of bringing Frazetta art to statue form is Atlantis.
ARH absolutey nailed Atlantis but they did have to change the statue from the painting image due to an anatomy issue. They had to put the right foot on its toes instead of flat footed. You can't stand like that with the feet flat as depicted in the painting.
All in all I think they are doing the pieces justice.
