New Superman pic/update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys

Ok ,I made some minor changes to the piece. I softened the smile folds under the eyes ( a bit daunting ,to actually sculpt in silicone on the silicone finished head!) and had a pro photographer shoot him out in daylight (rather than the studio 'werewolf' lighting from before). We didnt have a cityscape so we did it in the mountains to look like the end of first film..but the sun wouldnt play ball so we had to shoot him against greenery.Oh well.Im much happier with the statue and shot.

Cheers.



Truth, Justice and the American way...
