Dumbledore has an interesting finger pose too. I know it intimately after cutting them off with a lightsaber and trying to glue them back on.

And I don't know about Qui-jon, but the likeness on Snape is anything BUT off.

I still say that Qui-Gon would double nicely as a Jesus bust.

I don't recall either of them making those hand guesters in the movies.

The likenesses are decent though.

Oh boy I really dug myself a hole this time, I gotta stop trying to be funny, it keeps blowing up in my face. I was just making the joke about the likenesses being off, which I thought people would see as a joke since they're both very good.

So now everyone give me a polite, yet uncomfortable chuckle dammit! :lol

LOL. I thought it was ironic to see TWO GG busts have finger poses. But now you guys have pointed out three others! Ok, this is getting out of hand. Literally :rotfl

I think the hand gestures work pretty well and enhance the sculpts (Fett excepted). They add a bit of character to them.

Being busts they're not even supposed to have hands; they've probably got so many finger poses, since there's only so much you can do with a torso.
