Unfortunately the crow which should be placed on the left shoulder of Eric was slightly damaged with my statue: the left bird foot broke off during transit but since it was a clean break I was fortunately able to glue everything back together again with a small drop of superglue.
I had not expected it but this statue is a real eyecatcher in my display room. Somehow my attention is drawn to it and that is not only because it is the newest and latest addition to my collection.
It truly is a great statue of a great character and I am happy to have it in my collection.
I am still fumbling a bit with the coat to get it exactly how I like it and still have not found the ideal look.
I hope to be able to share more pictures with you guys soon; for the moment I hope you will enjoy the four quick pictures I took with my phone.

My crow (the shoulder one) arrived damaged too, the wing broke into 5 smaller pieces.
But after reading the posts here, seems like I'm not the only one that happened to - going to see if i can get a replacement but if not, I can try to glue back.
I wish the base was wider - the flames make it look wide but the actual base touching the ground is very narrow, the statue is a little wobbly since it is more top heavy.
