I like everything but the upper torso. Something about it and the way the arms and the head look with it is just throwing the whole figure slightly off for me.

I'd think a CG torso might work a little better with those parts.

Great work on everything else, though.

I think you need to set the head a little lower. That may help.

appreciate your thoughts, I used that torso since there isn't much to use it for besides kinda regal looking guys but so is the CG torso too. The head is straight on so I can make him look down more, so might look better that way. Glad ya like what you do too
Thanks Tim

I hate to jump on the wagon but, I think it's the arm length. they are just a little to long.
I do like where your going though.

man why did you have to notice the arm length....He's a gorilla in disguise or he's a new sculpt figure so he's perfect you know :-|
yeah I know when i put him together in WIP form I noticed his arms were long but didn't have longer legs for him to have, I do have nemesis enforcer uppers they might work for him though?

Yes, set the head a bit lower and it'll be perfect. The arms aren't too bad, really.

Coloring the collar differently is a good trick as well. Good work.

I think the arm length needs to be bigger...it's not EXTREME! enough ;)

The figure looks pretty good though, good job on the head sculpt!

:rotfl:

O.K. I think it's a sight better than the "real" Iron Klaw and just a hair less impressive than the unreleased 25th Iron Klaw. Maybe a 7.5 on the extreme-o-meter?

I don't mind the arms Tim. If you do lower the head though, I think you'll almost have to do something at that point, as the proportion of the arms will seem even more wonky. My recommendation is find some taller legs. If he's stretched out just a bit I don't think he'll seem as off.

But that's not to say he's "off" otherwise. I like the look of the parts you chose, and the head is very cool.
