 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink?
Looks to me like the head and body is slightly leaning forward, maybe that compensates for the wings. I'm kinda concerned about the tiny feet, the design is almost seems like an upside down pyramid.

I'd bet that it's gonna work really well...the posture is one of the highlights of the RI sculpt and have no doubt that SI will follow the same criteria

 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink?
I really want to see them with color. If they stick with the same colors as the RIs I think they will be hard to resist, especially an all black colorway. I just wish the wings were longer and spread out more.

 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink?
It does indeed look sexy- I assume its not free standing though- it sems to be propped up in all of those photos?

 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink?
it looks like they are a bit unstable (propped up in all the shots) but it would be cool to hang one on the wall like a crucifix.

 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink?
Yeah, I guess the standing thing is an issue.

 Re: Usugrow Salvation Ink?
that sucks, i was hoping they would have fixed that. hopefully it comes with a stand that he rests on but i dont think thats going to happen.. i was big on getting this but now i probably wont because of the standing issue
