Yeah the Ram makes him look like a Masters of the Universe character...Gives him that Skeletor feel...
to many skulls makes him feel like Death not God of War..
Granted there is much death in War, but maybe the Base would be better off with less skulls and more Weapons..Things you use in War...

I agree!

Go less skulls and more weapons on the base!
Go 1/5 scale in size!
Change o head with a helmet!

Come on Arahom! Go big! The Gods deserve it!

@barbarian : Indeed he's more like hades in the armor battle...because of his wicked and old apperance.and many skulls make this character strong like a god of death..
ares is god of war....the base and the appearance must represent the war...dont get me wrong..i like the face and body design but not diggin into skull in the hands and base.....
this is a must and fancy statues for me so i expect more serious sculpt on this one
right guys >>><<<< ??

i still dont get this design. no greek element whatsoever. if u post this on open forum, no one would have guessed this is ares the god of war. looks more like a barbarian warlord from a online fantasy game.

i do like the design and think it will make a cool badass statue, but dont force the ares god of war title on him, they dont fit. just save this design and call it a barbarian warlord and have a new design for ares. if you are going greek mythology, at least have some greek element to it.

suggestion:
1) gave him a greek helmet
2) change weapon to sword or spear with giant round shield either on the base or on his back
3) please get rid of the skull base

The good news is that we are doing all that that you suggested.

Erick Sosa won't sculpt this piece anymore due to some prior commitments with Kotobukia, so I pass it to Alex Pereia that is already woking on it.

Pics soon!
