Didn't realize the flower by her feet before. Nice touch.

That looks really good. No interest to pick it up but am really looking forward to people's photos.

Digging the rose . . nice pop of color. Each reveal gets better . . looking forward to seeing the final look. Shouldn't be much longer.

I really love Olivia de berardinis artwork and the Frankie reborn statue prototype statue was beautiful, but sideshow collectibles factory Q.C couldn't replicate the way the face was done correctly and the skin was way off too. It was so underwhelming for me that i canceled my order. I feel like there isn't anything wrong with the statue sculpture its the way the factory Q.C can't copy the art style and colors on a mass production piece.

They all use the same factories. All statues promise the impossible and miss far more than they get very close.
That is why some people going on about Batwoman, Pulp Vixens, and other high painted pieces are in for disappointment. Good portraits are the hardest to duplicate.
But many buyers are good ant lying to themselves so the game continues...

I dont quite get the fan club she has going for her sculpture work. So far she has one statue to her credit which differed greatly from what was advertised. The renders to me look like a Bettie cosplayer. This is a statue I am interested in, but I wouldnt buy it if the statue looks like that render. Im just not sure why the free passes are being handed out on this one? Doesnt happen anywhere else in the SS section.

Strictly based on this low-res rendering, her body seems a bit too smooth and too round, almost Barbie-like. Muscle definition and bone structure underneath seem to be missing.

I understand the statue is based on one of Olivia's paintings with a highly stylised 2D look. However, I expect to see a more realistic body sculpt in 3D format. I hope this statue is not going to look like a doll.

But then again, it is only a low-res rendering taken from one view point. It is still too early to form any meaningful comments at this point. I will wait for the final reveal.
