I still can't believe that this was not on display at Con.
I really would've liked to have seen it...

You can never pass judgment based on internet photos. If you know anything about photography, lighting, composition and post-processing of digital images, you'll know that the amateur photos do not hold a candle to the professional photos from Sideshow's web site. Not dissing the photographer who took these images, but a lot more goes into capturing true colors and details besides pointing a camera at something and releasing the shutter.
dude i have never tried to pass myself off as a professional photographer or said anything in that nature. The only reason i posted these pictures was because there were fellow freaks who wanted to see the end result after all this wait. By the way you talk it looks to me that you know about lighting, composition and post-processing of digital images. good for you maybe you can start a thread on how to edit and post pictures to your liking and i would gladly take notes and learn from a professional. no harsh feeling mate i love my sideshow toys and i get a liltle pissy when people talk ^^^^ about my stuff.
now that i got that out of the way, collect for life witches!!!!
Computer Fly, no offense, but you got one with a crappy paint job. The FB head/face is horribly painted, like the painter didn't even care. But I think you knew that already. See if SS will give you a new dio?
Relax, man. It wasn't a personal attack against you, fruitcake. If you read carefully I was actually defending you and your attempt do showcase your new piece as honestly and accurately as you could. Someone passed judgment on the piece based on shots taken by you that weren't color accurate, which isn't fair. Not that I was trying to discredit your efforts, but to highlight the fact that folks need to see the piece personally and judge for themselves. I'm sure even Sideshow's photos are edited to some degree. They are trying to sell a product, so why wouldn't they enhance the photo to make the piece more appealing? Now with that said, maybe you should back off and we can sit down and bury the hatchet over a nice cold amber ale like a couple of mature adults.
In relation to the FB head i think you'll find it will be the same for most if not all and i also think u better read the thread again cause it won't be Computer Fly that your offending since he hasn't even received his yet.
Thanks again for the pics DVD.So what did the wife have to say when u decided to sleep next to your new dio?
[/B]
nough said mate like a said no harsh feelings we are all freaks here, i would'nt want you to pop a cap in my ass over some B.S. it's all good see you around the board...............
well she took it kinda good actually, she likes it. i finally gave them some fresh air and took out my sauron statue and lord morgul statue and put them up next to the dio. eowyn and the GG animaquette did'nt make the cut so i put the back in their box.
Bust a cap? Never that. Poor little old me wouldn't even hurt a fly. But I'll admit that it is fun to get into a good bar brawl every now and again. Cheers, brother.

Good on ya BF cause we wouldn't want to have to gang bash one of the new guys Welcome mate.
I hear you man, same here, I did not get any kind of notice on the warehouse arrival, when shipped etc, but I just got one that the item was shipped on Thursday and will be here on Tuesday!This will be my first Sideshow LOTR piece.
Awesome! I can't wait. I love the Dios - thanks again Ringer on Helm's Deep (now all I need is a certain little Dio to complete em)!
Interesting that its now called FELL BEAST VS GWAIHIR and not just "Eagle". So thats not just any Eagle ya got there, its the Lord of Eagles!
How in the ^^^^ do you already have one, when I got the "arriving in our warehouse within 15 days" notice in the mail 5 days ago?
