Very nice figure! Love the stance and the detail work. The sculptor really captured the bulk of the clothing.

I do think the figures right arm is very thin though, too thin really. This is especially evident from the rear view.

If you examine fashion of the period the cut and fit on the figure is dead on. I think the most important thing that is rarely taken into account is that the physical build of 17th century people differed greatly to that of today. It's a great figure and I'm sure many will be on show tables this year. ~Gary

Agreed, it is a very nice figure.

But the problem is the figure look just like the mannequin (actually even thinner then the armless mannequin), like there are no arm inside the sleeve. It needs to be thicker then it is, not saying it should be much, but atleast show there is an arm there!!

And yes, I am very well aware that people have grown larger and larger over the years.
 
My dear friend Anders I do not think that one arm the way you wrote stop you to buy the figure.I am sure with the painting of Alex Cortina you will change your mind.And always you can add putty my friend.

Hola Christos,

Absolutely! It is a gorgeous figure with out a doubt. It is an easy fix if you find it too thin. I am very much looking forward to the painted version, I am sure it will be a stunner.
 
Hola Christos,

That will make a great figure even better. It's nice to see manufacturers take such advice to heart like that. Looking forward to the painted version!!
 
I want to apologize for this great mistake, but sometimes you can't see the wood for the trees.
I think this is repaired, thank you for your comments, all are welcome.
Angel
