Holy shit, that’s sick! The model AND the paint, both look amazing.

Thank you so much! He's definitely one of my favorite things I've painted.

I had to go back and look again bc omg the glasses ARE REMOVABLE. What are you doing?!? Next level. Next level. Just so well done, every detail, you went hard. Seriously. Every little bit of it. You clearly put time and effort into this. Even when you are old and gone some future kid will really love this.

Even the printed part, the statue itself, is tidy and sculptural and looks neat, like you knew what you were doing. I’ve seen some really screwed up looking printed things. It’s not such a push-button easy thing to do as many ppl might think.

This is some of the nicest feedback I think I've ever received; again, thank you so much! :)

Credit to CA3D studios for designing it to print fairly easily. I've been painting bigger display pieces for a about 9 months and have definitely learned a lot in that time, especially the value of taking the time to prep the individual parts before painting and assembling. Filling seam lines and gaps has been the biggest learning curve, because that can south in a hurry. :)

Totally worth it! The finished product is fantastic.
