quote:

The statue of Prometheus is finally finished.

It was cast in Paris, crossed the Atlantic, and was assembled at Starbase. It took us 100 days to go from nothing to this.

People of the West, we have lived through an era devoid of dreams, devoid of destiny.

But the time has come to reclaim our dream of antiquity.

In a few months, we will start building a new city. It will be the most magnificent city in all of history.

After all, the great dream of the West has always been to rebuild Rome.

Come walk beside us in this endeavor. The world is waiting.

They are. The statue is shite. It's not proportional.

Probably the same reason the Vulcan statue in Birrningham looks out of proportion, when place on a high pedestal, it looks normal..



quote:

Visual Correction (Anamorphosis): Because the 56-foot statue was designed to be placed high atop a pedestal or mountain, viewers would look up at it from a steep angle. Moretti scaled up the upper portions so that perspective would make the statue appear normally proportioned and realistic when viewed from directly below.

IDK, body looks as proportional as Rocky and Ivan Drago did in real life. I don't find it surprising the legs aren't mammoth tree trunks

It was done by Atelier Missor, a foundry based in France. A bunch of them are swarthy and look Mediterranean or Middle Eastern or something like that but not Indian. (I couldn't find a better picture.)

I am actually looking forward to the Progressive Melt on this one. I am excited to see what angle they take when they go on the attack. Should be prime entertainment. I hope he put security out there.
