A Renaissance inspired vanity portrait of the not-so-good Commander. You can read a little more about over at my site.

He was, if nothing else, a lot of fun to dream up and make.

He leans a little too far to the left and I don't mean politically. :D

I've had the parts for a CC Bust for a few years now. I really need to sit down and complete it.

He was actually going to originally just be a bust, and I decided "Why stop there?"

This angle really exaggerates his pose, but yes, he's leaning pretty far back. I wanted it to be a pretty over the top, dynamic stance, but it does look a little unnatural. :)

Over the top is an under statement, talk about your compensating for lack.......lol very cool though.

Lol, first I thought "fig leaf," then "maybe a cobra symbol," then realized it HAD to be a giant snake coiling up his leg. I mean, it's really not even like I had a choice.

This is potentially the Most Humorous Custom for this year's JCA.

I've had thoughts on turning figures into "life size" scale statues before... but never anything quite so dramatic. lol.

awesome work.

Here's the question though... do I submit him as a figure or a diorama??

Thanks guys, definitely going to do more pieces like this, really appreciate the feedback!

Hilariously cool. The cobra up the leg is priceless.

*THIS* is why we need a :slowclap: emote.

When there is a custom that is just so awesome it defies descriptive words and :bow: doesn't cover it...
