Re: Arwen Maquette
The picture is pretty small, so I can't quite get a good look at the likeness, but the display with all of the maquettes is top-notch. The features look a little sharp for Arwen, but again, at this size, I can't really tell. Here is hoping that we see more during the 12 days of Sideshow!

Re: Arwen Maquette
In this larger image, the likeness gets more worrying, there's just something that doesn't seem right. Lets hope it's not the actual sculpt.

Re: Arwen Maquette
It's hard to tell if the statue of Arwen looks like Liv Tyler or not from such a small pic.

Re: Arwen Maquette
Likeness does look off a bit to me, but the piece overall is very well presented. I like it, and will order. Glad to see five together after the drought of information since SDCC.

Re: Arwen Maquette
likeness aside, I'm really not digging some of these poses they chose.
Must every strand of hair and bit of clothing billow in the breeze?  The Aragorn is still in a class by himself, imo.

Re: Arwen Maquette
I love the poses. They all look pretty epic so far. As far as the likeness, it's clear they couldn't get Liv to go along. I'm sure every actor has the rights to their own likeness, and probably charge an arm and a leg to use it. If SS had the rights, I'm sure they could have nailed it. Then again, it's a damn small image. It could look much better than we can see here.

Re: Arwen Maquette
I tried to magnify the jpeg as much as I could at work, and the face looks good, but her eyes are too small. Liv Tyler has huge eyes, and this sculpt doesn't look to quite capture that. I really like the outfit they chose though for this format!

Re: Arwen Maquette
Am gonna wait until we get a decent shot of the entire piece by itself (with closeups) before jumping on the "sky is falling" bandwagon.
