New ARES coming - By Alex Pereira

Arahom Radjah · 05-05-2010, 03:54 PM

Guys,

After a long debate, two designs, and one year waiting to make this piece, Ares The God of War is finally coming!

My good friend Erick Sosa had to pass on the job since his commitment with Kotobukia keeps him too busy.

So, I passed it to Alex Pereira, the same genius that made Anubis and Cleopatra.

But here is what I'm most interested in finding out here:

I've been thinking about making him and all the Olympian gods (Zeus, Poseidon, Athena, etc.....) in 1:4th scale.

So who is in favor for 1:4th scale on all the Olympians??

BTW.... This picture of ARES is the first one he sent me, so it is JUST the very beginning. All suggestions, critics and changes should be made now, not when I present pictures of the statue printed!!!

I don't know it looks ok...it just does not have that God Feel to it...It just looks like an Everyday Soldier...he needs to be in a more Meanacing pose and the base needs to be more then just him standing on a rock...JMO

I would switch out the Greco helmet with something like this.

That's pretty much the helmet we will have for him. So far we have just a rough idea of the costume and amor for setting the pose, sizes and etc...

I feel you, but all this is coming!

Also I would change the spear position to this.

If you have his helmet up on his head rather than covering his face it would make it more interesting and give a different feel to Leo.

i agree that it looks too basic, but i also realize that it is an early rough draft at that. i have total confidence that the end result will be amazing arahom. and yes, the olympians need to be 1/4. only way to do them justice.
