I finally got the Darkness!

Finally! I got it for $177.50 and just the right shipment cost.
Downside, two of his front fingers broke off but its within the package as well as one gargoyle's arm was split into two.

Though I glued these severed parts it is still a sore to the eye seeing the glue line... I will one day paint on top of it to make it look near perfect.

Frankly, for me, the statue alone, even with out the gargoyle, is stunning! I may not display the statue with the gargoyle and with just create a different diorama to feature the gargoyles all by themselves.(Or make my own Darkness statue version)

I can't wait for the Angelus and also maybe Mr. Moore a museum pose of the Darkness this time?

Congratulations on a nice pick up. Yes, a standing/more upright Darkness would be cool.

Thanks for sharing your pics.

Never found much interest in this statue, but your photos make it look very impressive.

It's truly a great piece... I have never regretted buying mine years ago. Looks fantastic in the Moore collection just like everything else.

Angelus will be truly amazing by the time Clay sneaks that little gem...

congrats, excellent statue. I regret not getting it a few years back when it was just fetching <50'ish bucks, keep putting it off.
