Lifesize Chris Reeve Superman head sculpt arrives!

Dude, that thing looks so good, I'd be afraid I'd find it in bed with my Wife if I came home early from work.... :confused.

Seriously, Reeve was one handsome mofo.
 
OH.....MY.....GOD. Just when I've had my Howard bust pro-painted and all pretty, this one comes out.

I dunno.......I love my Howard bust, but I just might have to have this one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe one can be good ol Supes and the other could be Clark Kent........

Lemmie know if/when you make this guy available!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Super job on a 'Super' guy.
 
Clark would be cool but the hair would not be styled/parted correctly.

You could make the evil, part 3 Superman though.

:)

Again, incredible work Chris. I knew it would be good but WOW!

DarthElvis from RS wanted me to post how cool he thought this sculpt was. He's not a member of the RPF yet so I'm the messenger.

I had a feeling it would be something of yours, Chris. :lol You love Superman and only commission the best work. ;)

It is definitely very nice. Congrats! :)
 
Ooh la la. Thought this was yours when I opened the thread Nikolas. You should post more of your work here :) Great stuff and congrats to you both (y)thumbsup
 
Chris, that's got to be as high as the bar goes... gold-plate that puppy or something :eek

Congratulations!

Having been lucky enough to see this piece close-up, I can only affirm everybody's overwhelmed reactions - it has to be seen to be believed.

There is so much character in this sculpt - a great relaxed expression and the warm grin - the nose even feels like there is a bone underneath. CKing has laboured hard and at great expense to finally finally arrive at this, what is to me, the definitive Reeve sculpture. I think we should christen it "A friend"
 
Everytime I look at that thing, I get chills! Again, it is simply awesome, and "awesome" doesn't even come close to describing it.
 
Thanks again for all the great coments guys!
I'm glad that Nikolas is able to read what everyone thinks about his excellent sculpture.

Martin - it was great to see you again on Monday evening and as I mentioned, I'm really happy that you like the bust so much. Great pics by the way!

Cheers,

Chris
 
Thank you all for this big hug:)
Chris's help was very big with all this reference photos and suggestions and stuff.Thank you Chris.:thumbsup

Nikolas
 
I can agree with Nikolas about Chris having worked with him on many occasions. He kinda gets you motivated aswell and gets you moving in the right direction.

Nikolas, you must be like me in that you can take constructive comments positively, without getting upset or unsure about ones abilities. Chris recognises talent and actually brings the best out of you I think... :)
 
We have so much in common as characters and this can be very constructive.Chris was crazy with superman and i cannot hide that im crazy now too!:rolleyes

Nikolas
 
Very very nicely done job Nikolas. I am so impressed and only such a beautiful bust could grace the best of Superman Costumes. Congratulations on such a beauty sir !!
