i just think something like this is bound to be out-done by the next piece that has more "OMG WTF WOW" factor. The art means nothing to me so that could be a BIG reason why i'm not crazy over it.
but if you guys like the art and it's near and dear to you...i can understand the love.
Meanwhile the Jim Lee HUSH art . . . that's another story

As usual SHOGUN is so keen at expressing the point.
It's time to realize that statues are just going to get better and better. Digital rendering has changed the game and will continue to as it becomes more cost effective, accessible, and as artists' skill sets grow.
Though it's just starting for games when deep learning hits modeling all bets are off for things we haven't even imagined possible.
As usual for P1 this has outstanding elements: the cape, portraits, and similarity to the key art.
But like a ton of Prime 1 stuff it's missing a spark something that makes it unique, classic, timeless, iconic... unless you are attached to the source material.
Prime 1 statues are like a sorority party: Tons of eye candy, hot chicks grabbing your attention one right after the other, but not a single breathtaking one that you want to be your one and only.
