This model was painted
using artist's acrylics and standard hand brushing
techniques along with washes and some dry brushing.
This is a terrific sculpt featuring a great likeness to Mr.
Reeves
and is a fitting tribute to a real life hero.
I decided to add the New York skyline in the background to
recreate the
publicity still that the pose was taken from. I can still
remember the excitement
I felt,upon seeing that pic in my morning newspaper for the
first time !
I apologize if anyone is upset with the inclusion of the World
Trade Center,
but I feel both it and the people who lost their lives, should
always be remembered.
