I know a lot of people have moved into the "nitpicking phase," but I think this continues to look incredible and cannot wait to get it.

It's not just that Justin uses lights that are too heavy, it's that he also lights everything from below as well. Do you want a person to look absolutely terrible on film or video? Light them from below. This is why people use reflectors; they allow you to lighten up the shadows on a person's...

I should clarify, my main point is that I think it's much much easier to hide things in photographs.

Photographer here, and yes, photos absolutely lie and distort reality. Using a different lens, or even slightly adjusting the angle or perspective of a subject can lead to wildly different looking photos. Bad lighting absolutely can change the look of a subject. Photo editing is not the same...

Zero regrets about cancelling my Hot Toys version and ordering a second InArt one.

I was thinking about why the head proportions look off on the maskless sculpt, but not on the masked sculpt, and I honestly wonder if it's just the proportions of the suit itself. Do we ever see a full shot of him in the suit, without the mask in the movie? I think we only ever see him shot in...

Eh, let people like what they like. It doesn't hurt or affect me.

I have two sculpted versions on pre-order and the wait is going to be painful.

I still think the Hot Toys is an incredible likeness, but the InArt looks overall to be a much much more impressive figure.

My opinion as a photographer is to trust the video over these instagram photos. To my eye, these look like they have been overly edited to make them look really sharp and contrast-y. Especially on the face place here. That's why the face looks a little weird on these shots.

The unmasked sculpt still looks a tad undersized, but this right here looks excellent.

Someone on here claimed a few weeks ago to have gotten one from Sideshow, but no one else has received a charging or shipping notice.

My understanding is that most (if not all) asian imports come in through the west coast, so it shouldn't affect asian manufactures.

This is literally the first time I have heard of anyone receiving one from Sideshow. Has anyone else gotten a notice?

It's not a green filter issue. The event must have had weird lighting and the photographer didn't know how to white balance their camera. Here's a photo of Bats from that event and my white balance corrected version of it.
