Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Phoenix unframed shipped. Should get it Wednesday

Really debating if I want to keep Captain Marvel. The left arm looks too short. Reminds me of the same thing with the Batman "cape" print. It was not natural looking.

To me it looks like the arm was drawn that short because she's not actually holding the arm down straight, she has the elbow bent at a 35 to 45 degree angle towards the point of view. The shading on the arm and the left fist does look a little derpy for the bend at the elbow though.

I have one on order and it looks good to me, but I can see why it could annoy you for sure hehe.

Well I do draw and paint and I've studied the human antonamy and perspectives. If you take the head (top of head to chin), multiple by 3, that should equal from your shoulder to tip of your middle finger. It's missing about 1/2 the head length. I get the elbow being bend, but it needs to be drawn that way. This doesn't have it.

I've shipped about 20+ statues mostly using UPS and USPS, the one time I use FedEx the statue arrived with a broken leg, of course FedEx says it was improper packaging that cause it. They won't pay up unless your box gets ran over by their own FedEx truck and that's only if someone catches it on video.

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 absolutely love the Dark Phoenix print! In person, I think it is absolutely stunning. Ian absolutely nailed the character and I have to say that it is my favourite print that Sideshow has put out so far! Automated signatures aside, I'm more than happy with it and I can't wait to frame it and display it with the PF.

I just uploaded a quick unboxing and review of it.
