Ugliest Gandalf Statue to Date

[KrisSolo]

Ugly is abit harsh, perhaps "different" is the word ?

Yeah, if by 'different'
you mean UGLY. Jebus, that thing sucks...

 

[Shai]

Superb !!!! Magnifique !!!! Beautifull !!!

 

[tomandshell]

I knew we could count on Shai to have a proper sense of taste!!

LOL, man that thing is ugly.

"It was completely handmade and handpainted by great artists."

Yeah, great artist in their own kindergarden. I mean seriously, I'm sorry but thats just wrong. Still, sucker born every minute.

 

[carbo-fation]

Ugly is an understatement!

 

[jbinny]

[thamesvalidude]

As my daughter would say: Ewwwwwwwwww!

Took the words out my mouth there, that 'thing' is just not nice at all!

I think it's great that 3 year old can make such a valued contribution to the collectables world!

When 900 years old you reach, look this good you will not

Wait 'til the artist starts posting here, and watch everyone give him the red carpet treatment.

 

[Kratos]

Wait 'til the artist starts posting here, and watch everyone give him the red carpet treatment.

Is that really likely to happen for this particular piece though?

 

[praxitas]

I think I've seen his "lips" on a porn star before...

 

[GrueSam]

Worse than this cannot be...

maybe but it's actually yugly or maybe fugly:chew:chew

 

[Knapen]

Sculpt itself is ugly. Although the beard is really nice.
Maybe Sideshow can learn from that, kuch PF kuch.

 

[The Ringer]

No bids on this yet? What gives?

 

[goliath]

I dont' think it is that bad - and certainly not something a "3 year old" in a "kindergarden" (quoting previous posters) could make.

It is not something I would wanna buy or display, but I can appreciate that an artist was trying to express their own imagination of Gandalf.

I also have two custom made statues from a US artist (Gimli and Gandalf, about the same size as the Weta statues), and they also don't look "movie accurate" - yet I still like them a lot.

What we saw in the movies was just one version that a group of (very talented) artists saw when they read the books.

Just my $ 0.02...

...and hey, something for the Star Wars fans, he's got some stuff for you as well:

Wicket Ewok

Ewok

Chief Chirpa Ewok

and some Clone Trooper and Royal Guard Helmets as well.

 

[Morbo]

eek! Gandalf needs some Botox!

The Ewoks look good, but a life size Wicket in my bedroom would scare the wife! :
