Statue Ares God of War Statue

[tupuxuara]

Hello to everyone! I live in Europe and here this statue will get to the end of November. I was curious to see more pictures, but not made by phone by candlelight. Kidding))). So far I have not seen a set of decent pictures to see the quality of the painting of the statue, to see how it is cast this statue. This is my first preorder statue produced by ARH. Honestly I'm a bit disappointed by the quality of the painting, from the pictures I've seen on this forum. Who knows, maybe I do not realize the quality because of poor pictures. Anyway I'm used to a high level of quality of both the painting and casting from Sideshow Collectibles. However in Europe this statue cost 600 Euro = 800 USD. It's too expensive for what it offers.

I'll take some good photos when I get mine. I've been happy with what I've seen in photos so far. Seems they are still parked at the port awaiting release to ARH so no idea when it's actually coming.

Me too, but it hasn't moved from Nampa, ID all day.

Does Averone and/or Arahom live in ID?

They are based in Nampa. Should be awaiting pickup from UPS or Fedex.

For those of you who already got this piece..how did you put the spear? I cant seem to place it behind the arm of the dead guy so there is no real place where i can place it without falling off..

Which spear are you talking about? Ares spear, the other half spear or the spear tip?

Yep!! Zeus got you covered...

 

[khrisc]

Nope..the one on his hand..the long spear..i cant seem to find a place to let the other end rest..its supposed to rest on the underarm of the dead guy but i cant make the spear reach that part..when i just leave it as is it falls off so ares is not holding the spear in middle the black part..it becomes too low

Had the same issue too and I still don't know where it is supposed to go. I will say this. I later found a pointed tip tjat attaches to the bottom and allows him to hold the grip where his hand is. The tip is straight smashed into the Styrofoam. It just looks like a little button. Out of curiosity I literally dug it out.

 

[yeek]

Hmmm, I wish I knew what you guys were talking about. Any pics of the issue?

i found that already but still having problems where it should sit..

here are the pics..see the one with the red circle? the spear should be able to sit there but i cant seem to make it reach to that point..as you can see with the pic the spear is already maxed out on the hand..the other pics shows what happens if i just lay it there as is..Ares holds the spear too low..any help guys as to where i should place it?

I just looked at the pics of Ares on the first page of this thread. I can't tell from your pics, but the spear should be with the spear tip facing up. Is that how you have yours? It also looks like Ares doesn't hold the spear in the grip area. He holds it below the grip area. Also, is there another piece that goes into the bottom end of the spear? It looks like it is there in the ARH photos, but missing on yours. Could that piece be embedded in the styrofoam somewhere? Does that help at all?

yup..the spear is facing up of course..the other piece that you are talking about and the one Nemenforcer is missing at first is already there..it is the one with the red circle the white thing..i put it there to illustrate that the spear should rest there but with mine it cant..it doesnt reach to that part..thus making my spear too low because i cant rest in anywhere high enough..

 

[yeek]

Interesting, I think I see what y'all are talking about now. I never really paid attention to where the spear tip rested before but I'm going to check mine when I get home now.

 

[nemenforcer]

Hmm. Mine just sits on the dead guys shoulder area

 

[yeek]

Just checked mine, and the spear just sits on the inside of that guy's arm.

I guess yours is on the outside versus the inside of the arm...
