Following the topic of this thread, I just want to say that I am sometimes worried for the level of consumism we are "arriving to"(? sorry I am not an English speaker). I mean, why pay for other complents for our statues when we can do them ourselves? IMO back drops and additional scenery are for the uncreative or lazy people[/QUOTE]

I understand your point, and it may be true of backdrops which can be printed from professional prints.
But unless a person has a lot of artistic skill in making environments, they would be hard to create and still maintain the quality and integrity of the statues themselves.
I do not have to the skills to create a quality environment and would be worried that anything I put together out of styrofoam and paint or whatever other material would cheapen the quality and presence of professionally made statues, that have already cost a good amount of money to purchase.
