Intersting how a sculpt of a Serbian war criminal has lots of people posting comments of outrage but a sculpt of a mass murderer who butchered his female victims draws no such response .Just an observation .

It's all a matter of time with us fallible humans apparantly. All about how much time has pasted it seems.
If this figure was available in 1888 people would be performing splenectomies on the sculptor.
How many people apart from some German modellers would buy one of Young's many nazi busts if they were available in 1942.
I still don't understand who would buy a Benito Mussolini figure but that's besides the point. What I mean is Roman soldier figures have only become popular with your average barbarian since the fall of the Roman Empire....etc.etc.
I think probably the same kind of thing applies to recent wars but then again some notable middle eastern situations seem to contradict that premise.

What Mark has said above is perfectly true, we humans loose accoutability/feeling over time. Genghis Khan slaughtered more people than anyone in history but makes a great modelling subject, but would you model a Lee Harvey Oswald or someone similar?
I think The Ripper is a great subject and is very well painted and sculpted, he holds fascination to a lot of people

Joaquin Palacios done incredible job on sculpting this one (I adore his work), not my cup of tea as Jack the Ripper but anyways "victorian fantasy gentlemen with knife" is cool work as usual for Freeman - historical Whitechappel Jack used surgeon scalpel, no? Alex box art is amazing!

 

[Mariner]

Ha! I thought so...as a lifelong Ripperologist/Sherlockian I'll be adding this and Holmes to my collection

[Tommy's War]

A great representation of The Ripper, and I love the dark tones of the box art, really atmospheric. I thought the Dr Jeckell and Holmes were good, but I think this is even better.
