I'd liked to be PM'ed about the price as well.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Anyone who's interested should PM cking here on the board.

 

[Gruson]

Ok guys, here is Superman in the completed costume!! (obviously the hands have not been painted yet)

AMAZING work!

I wish every 1/4 piece could look as accurate as this one.

Thanks again Chris for making this happen! I look forward to receiving mine later this month.

 

[Gruff Old Bear]

Good....lord...I knew I'd regret not getting in on this.

Why are we so shy about revealing the painters names? Please, who did Dave's paintup and who did cking's paintup?

 

[screamingmetal]

That looks amazing! I wish he'd make a Keaton Batman, or a Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman!

Looks cool! What was the total cost?

Thanks everyone! Glad you like it. It's been a real labor of love (I started the project in November 2004).

I'm afraid there aren't any more available at this time.

Please shoot me an email for info.

,...much better,...looks really nice finished,... but the shorts are a little long and not tight enough,..

 

[Collector Freak]

Yeah, and the pose is a little boring. Can you bend the arms?

 

[cking]

The length of the shorts changes substantially depending on how Chris Reeve pulled them up. Also, the "flying suit" shorts were a lot longer because they needed to hide the flying harness.
The shorts on the statue are as tight as they can be. It's the thickness of the lycra as it's turned under and seamed at the edges which makes them look a little looser than the full size versions.

We decided not to do anything "heroic" with the pose because Chris Reeve was quoted many times as saying that he didn't like doing the heroic poses. He preferred to just "stand there" and let the costume do all the work.
We've tried to capture the essence of Chris Reeve's portrayal of the character.

A beautiful piece of work. I think Christopher Reeve would've been proud.

 

[Darklord Dave]

This is definitely a dream project and I'm glad I got in on it. I can't imagine the anticipation that Cking has gone through, it's been a much shorter time for me. But I imagine we all have been waiting nearly 30 years for something like this.

 

[Andy Bergholtz]

Beautiful work!
