I think the effeminate look is being created by the way they’ve tucked his duster behind the sword scabbard and folded it around the other side to show off more of the legs, which has created a curvaceous, wide hips effect.I'm not really feeling to impressed with this piece. The rumours are that it will be around $3K.....which is both unsurprising and disappointing at the same time. In my opinion, the likeness is off - which just seems to be par for the course for all these (so called) hyper real movie statues. The pose is oddly effeminate from the waist down, and studying the piece in detail - it seem that the most effort has been invested in the headsculpt, while the rest has been completed to a more "standard" level - e.g the hands.
Despite my misgivings about the piece itself - I have concerns over Queen Studios the company. They're unreliable in regards to deliveries and wait times. I still have an unfulfilled pre order for the black suit Black Widow, and I'm doubtful my pre order for the 1/4 Loki will be satisfied anytime soon. I see no real efforts or improvements in the way QS is honouring collectors business - so to me, this is a real excitement killer in and of itself.
Maybe the worst thing in all of this, is that I have little expectation / hope that JND can / will do any better than this version of Aragorn - I'd even go so far as to hope they don't even make an attempt (for their own sake). If i was going to get any of the current options - I'd say the best "bang per buck" is the Infinity 1/2 scale - which, of course, has it's own flaws and drawbacks.......
As cool as the sword in front of the face is for pictures, I think blocking a key feature like the face with the sword in 3D/statue form isn't the best idea since it's permanent.Poses and looks I’d prefer- ripped straight from the movies-

And while not the same look as far as clothing/gear, JND appear to be going with a similar pose to that Helm's Deep charge image you have there
Yeah wish that was the sculpt for the 1:6 version, same with their Joker, their 1:4 sculpt with custom paint and hair looks so good.Sculpt also looks better than their 1/6.
