Yes it's def gonna be the trickiest dynamic pose I've pulled off on an oversized custom, but the worse of it is over!

That is going to be one SERIOUSLY impressive piece.

I hope so too man, these long-term oversized projects can be tiresome, but it's ALWAYS worth it in the end...

Thanks for the input! I gotta say I do agree with ya on the feet. I knew there was something that didn't look right about them, they should be either narrow-er or narrow-er and longer. I can very easily fix the width and skinny them down as much as I want....but on the OTHER hand, I will lose some stability overall at the feet to balance the entire body. You gotta remember this thing ain't standin straight up like your typical custom statue, he's in a running/crouching position and the feet are catacorner. This one I'll definitely have to play by ear as I go along and adjust the weight distribution as needed. I can always use more perspectives & critiques on my pieces to fine-tune them, so it's very much appreciated!

So this won't be a bit chibi style ie big head etc? Looks like you're getting it exactly like the reference art which is amazing.

Love the sharp edges and overall beef to what's been done so far. Very nice attention to detail as well with those inner leg panels. My only advice is to keep doing what you're doing.
