I don't know what it is, but that HH statue just doesn't scream out AMAZING to me. I think the colors are a bit muted and the paint job overall just doesn't seem the best. I dunno, it just doesn't POP. There's really something missing. The 1/4 rear view of that statue someone posted earlier looks REALLY cool and pending some prototype painted images I would probably be on board for that.
That crouching statue though... just not very appealing.
The Mumm-ra one that HH is putting out looks super cool! Colors are great and very reminiscent of the classic cartoon with exceptional detail.
Here's what I was thinking more for Lion-O... a bit more vibrant paint app and more detail in the hair, not as chunky. I would normally say the method they did was okay, but they added so much fur detail to the skin areas that they should have applied that much detail to the whole thing. It's like they chose a half way between more realistic and toony. The toony hair with the more realistic fur details doesn't quite look right. Maybe if the fur wasn't so detailed so it was more of the cartoon series look. I'd be all for a realistic look to them, but it looks like they could have put more into this piece.
