First off, thanks so much for the in depth details on what it took to bring this figure to life. I really appreciate the extra time you took with describing your process. I always enjoy reading the creative steps that one goes through to make their art.
As you know, I've followed your work roughly for nearly 5 years, and I must say (and this is difficult being familiar with your extensive catalog of great piece after great piece) that this is probably my favorite figure by you. He is just beautiful. Great proportions and symmetry, regarding the sculpting and parts selection. I realize you do this all of the time, and I have come to expect great things from you, so this isn't a surprise to me that you've wowed me once again.... I just find something special about this one. I originally just stared at it for a while, awestruck by its beauty, so I had to know more.
He just looks so bad ass and somewhat barbaric. His weapons are mostly for close contact fighting, which suggests he doesn't even wince at getting his hands dirty. He looks like he's had his fair share of damage as well, based on his facial scar. I love the helmet and all of the soft goods (for some reason I always smile at the sound of "soft goods"). The sculpting is gorgeous. I would have never guessed most of the parts you used.
I love the placement of everything. He's loaded with extras, but not over loaded. I could easily imagine this version you've created to be being fleshed out on screen, without any modifications of your vision of this character.
Bravo, L.E.. Outstanding work, sir.
