The figure is now stripped, disassembled, pegged, and mounted on its work base. . .
OBSERVATIONS:
- The worst aspect of this figure are the incidental 'flaws' caused by the wire inserts in the legs. If there were no wire, the figure would be near flawless.
- As I mentioned in my previous posting, the left gauntlet is finely-cast white metal. However, it is equally significant that the balance of the figure is apparently pure resin--there is no metal filler evident.
- This is one of the finest conflations of 2-d graphic illustration and 3-d representational figure design that I have seen. It "works" superbly from any angle!
Now that I have the figure broken-down into its components, I would like to upgrade my review to HIGHLY recommended!
