Supergirl Premium Format Figure

[jadekite22]

Not pointing fingers at all, but I think some take for granted how difficult it is to translate Artgerm's work into 3D, despite seemingly every company using it. Following it literally results in criticism that the faces are too manga-esque (XM's Black Widow) and taking liberties really requires a skilled sculptor like Mark Newman to pull off (not to mention the paint apps to back it up.) The recent DCC Cover Girls have been the most successful at this so far, but they also have the advantage due to the smaller scale.

Changing the paint apps won't fix anything, the factory in China won't be able to match it.

Sad but true

I don't know why they couldn't have made it look something like this

Would've blown me away, that's for sure.

Would have been instant po then

I'd disagree, Jadekite. Batgirl and Power Girl were homeruns. Also Vampirella was good, but was a bit too anime ish for me. XM stuff does the same. Just it matters of the sculptor and paint, but seeing as Ivy, Catwoman, HQ, BG, and PG were killed, Supergirl would have been no different.

I don't have an issue persay with the portrait but it doesn't blow me away. Dark Phoenix heads blow me away...that's the difference for me.

I like the face of the Dark Phoenix too and with 2 portraits it's worth getting.

Www..no

Www..no

I like the face on that illustration better. The outfit...not so much. Sexy sure, but not how I want my Supergirl to look in my collection. This is still my preference:

hahaha, hopefully minus the bikini line. nice illustration and pose and all, but the belt coming undone and the bikini line just looks ridiculous. lol

 

[Asdf]

[Eltjar]

Haha, yea its a tad oversexualized but I like the pose of her just floating in the sky, her hair, and the playful expression.

Either way, much better than what ss has shown so far

just read over at statue forum in the "Ask Sideshow Thread", Alex responded and confirmed that there will only be one portrait for supergirl. what a disappointment! she said the portrait we saw at SDCC would be the one we get. what a huge bummer!

Actually she said it was the portrait at NYCC that will be used.

They are repainting her skin tone, eye shadow and lip color.

yeah that. still pretty similar to the horrendous one at sdcc.

 

[Josh-A-Tron]

yeah that. still pretty similar to the horrendous one at sdcc.

I didnt like either one myself.

Its kinda funny they think the solution is to have the worlds best statue painters repaint it

Well a really good paint job can hide somethings but honestly its the entire sculpt. So unless they work magic I dont see it changing how people feel.
