His pants in the movie aren't fabric. He's not diving through the depths of the ocean in cotton leggings. And I disagree with your statement completely. Take a look at any of the amazing Prime 1 pieces who sculpt fabric so well it tricks the mind of many people who think it's fabric when it isn't. See the movie Harley Quinn piece. Or the suit on the DKR Batman, etc. There's countless examples.

Anyways, you enjoy your fabric. I hope it's every bit as fabulous as you think it will be.

Yup, exactly. Totally thought his pants was going to be fully sculpted, too.

With the way his fabric pants look right now, it could've been sculpted and still look the same.

Yea, I don't really understanding their thinking here. SSC could've easily made his pants and boots fully sculpted.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Not true anymore. You’re still thinking of statues done 5+ years ago. Things have come a long way since that time. Look at the sculpt on pieces like the P1 DKR and the sculpted fabric looks better than what the real fabric would have looked like. I’ve had people swear it was real fabric and touch it to be sure. The difference is if they had used real fabric, the creases presented in the statue would not have been there and would not look as good as the sculpted version. Same goes for something like the upcoming P1 DK3 MR statue.

They are all one three scale piece.One four scale can not do this unless more cost used on it.

Ahh, so large pieces can accomplish this but one scale smaller cannot? LOL, are you a troll? Or, do you really believe this nonsense?

Look at the new comic Harley Quinn or the new Thor, both of which have insanely awesome sculpted body suits that perfectly replicate fabric and leather. And no, I'm not referring to Thor's cape. Or how about the lightly armored look that Daredevil and Elektra have, which again, is full sculpt? How about the new Catwoman? What about the absolutely perfect new Punisher piece that is beyond detailed? What about the Rebel Terminator? I could go on, but I'm sure you'll find some random reason to tell me I'm wrong.

You know nothing about the meaning of detail and texture.There is no need to continue the conversation with you.
