I was talking about the post before yours. You replied as I was typing mine. So see what happens when you assume. :lol Well, I and many others like the way the armor was done. You can either deal with that or you can't. I don't care either way. I love how a couple of you are good at making petty comments or name calling while you try to act "above" others. It's pretty funny. Remember what you said you think about my opinion at statue forum the other day. Trust me the feeling is mutual.



I wouldn't know. :)

My comment still stands about painting armor one shade of silver. if you can't see that, well, that is something else. I showed you a pic of what nice painted armor looks like. If you can't admit that, yes, the paint job can be improved upon then I do assume another motive behind all of this. And we aren't even talking about the glow effect. That I assume is more taste. But in your world the forum would look like this

STATUE: NEW STATUE

That's a boring world to me.
 
If you speak your mind you put a face up Josh. Only neutral comments have no face....denial.

I always speak my mind and 100% honest when doing so. :lecture

If you can't see what's in front of you of course

All, I see when I look at Sauron is one of the best LOTR pieces I've ever seen. It's badass and I love it. I make no apologies for that.
 
So which one is it? You can't have it both ways otherwise the word hypocrite comes to mind. Please tell me.

Putting on a face means what you're saying isn't how you actually feel. I never do that. I am 100% honest. I thought again I made that clear.

I've always agreed to this part and you know it

I never said anything otherwise.

I'm extremely happy with the paint job on mine.

However I do wish ss would take into account the difficulty of pulling off the master painters original.

I think adolfos repaint is the way it should have been done.

I'm just so happy ss gave us something so special at an incredible price.

The paint isn't so bad that it takes anything away from the statue. I think it actually makes it more interesting..
 
Im perfectly happy with my paint job. Exactly the way the artist meant to portray his original craftwork, on the statue.

Honestly Adolfo, thats exactly that, "your vision" and what you think. Its not what the artist intended the statue to be. Its like another artist coming in and saying, "oh, the Mona Lisa could look better, let me just make a few tweaks and adjustments and so and so, and woolah!! Looks so much better". Or a better example, like you changing JV's Saurons painting to your liking. It's not original.

I give high applause for the originality of the fantastic artistic scope they were wanting to relay to the collectors with the lava effect. Its another dimension of art, collectors such as myself, can appreciate and it adds extra depth to the piece. I do think you ruined your piece though. But if youre happy with it, thats all that matters.

JV must have ruined his Sauron too just like you said. We are talking about a copy here no original works of art apples and oranges don't even go there. His painting is perfect. If this statue represents the JV painting then display it like the JV painting. The spike down must be original too. So I fixed it just Like it was shown in the film. Is that ruining it too? I guess for you any repaint from anyone must be bad because it's taking away what the statue company intended from your above statement

So for example you love the statue but it isn't really how you feel about it. WTF are you talking about. Are you hiding something? Is it like having a poker face or something. I'm really confused on that one Josh. If how you feel about say this piece is not what you write about it here then what's the point. We all bought this statue and had our own personal feelings on it. How can you make a statement and not have feelings comparable. Are u kidding me? LOL

What are you babbling on about here? :rotfl Did you even read your post before you posted it? :rotfl

I love this statue and I think it's awesome. I've been honest and upfront about it from the start how I felt about the Sauron PF. If I didn't really love this statue and was saying I loved it THEN I'd be putting on a face. I don't think you know what putting on a face or putting up a front means.

Just a heads up for anyone who needs to get a Sauron, WBshop just posted him up for sale at $849+free shipping. Plus you can usually find a $100 off $1K coupon if you can add another ~$150 item you can knock $100 off. Not a bad deal.https://www.wbshop.com/product/the+lord+of+the+rings+sauron+premium+format+statue+by+sideshow+collectibles+lotrssstsa.do?ref=CASHOP&utm_source=Shopping&utm_medium=cse&utm_campaign=WBShop&CA_6C15C=530007340000068117

Just noticed this post. Got him for $775 shipped between the free ship and the $75 off coupon. Thanks for the heads up :hi5:
 
Still waiting on them to come into the local store. Still sorta of worried about spending 900 with the paint, so need to see.

On the other hand, I have been thinking of buying the piece regardless of paint. As of late I have been touching up other statues I have been obtaining that might need it and contemplating repainting him. Might not be soon, but eventually. Or getting the print to go behind it. ;)

You guys think there will be enough Sauron piece coming out anytime being sculpted bigger or better?
