XM Studios Brown Wolverine

[El Mule]

Early sculpt of the Wolverine figure. Pose is spot on... as expected everything else looks on point so far

 

[filip629]

That's looking pretty solid. Wish they would go with a Byrne or Lee styled head sculpt though.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

I like it.

meh, I'll wait to see it finished before I critique. Not like I'm getting it anyway.

It's not a bad idea to voice an opinion. XM listens to them and makes adjustments accordingly.

Don't particularly like the head sculpt, the mouth or the ears on the mask. The claws look too big too

I'm with you 100% on that.

 

[filip629]

I also think the portrait can be improved.

this isn't final gents. I imagine they have a lot more to do...

Yeah, def need some TLC.

I think the body and pose look on point. Perfect Wolverine. Claws look perfect length as well. I agree that the face sculpt can use some tweaking particularly jaw chin and mouth look too big. I also would prefer if they go with Jim Lee inspired art for the face sculpt

I don't mind the claw length. It was the width I didn't like.

Agreed. The jaw, chin and mouth need adjustments ...looks pretty big at the moment. And a Jim Lee based head sculpt would be great.

The other great thing ...XM takes our critiques in consideration when they are improving their sculpts. Awesome!

I can get behind that! Bryne is a great artist as well

Yes its always good to know a company takes its collectors critiques seriously. Also its fun to be involved in the process.

Yep, that should do it. Considering we have Byrne to thank for the brown costume, it'd be nice to have a Byrne styled portrait. Also, a Lee portrait is always a good idea.

Again with the lack luster heavy hitters. Nothing about this pose makes sense with the base. Wolverine is coming off a roof, which I love by the way, but the pose just doesn't read like that. The torso and legs read like he is jumping up off of the roof, the head looks like he is jumping either straight out from the roof or slightly down, and his arms definitely read like he is aiming down on someone. The pose has multiple personality disorder. The head sculpt is off too, and I have thought that since I looked at the initial designs. The head sculpt is totally off as of right now, and my first thought is ManBat not Wolverine. This piece can be a homerun, but the entire pose should be revisited.

Lots of great input. Hopefully XM will look into it
