Completed Critique SOL model 1/9 - Musa, the warrior

[dinovision79]

Hi Folks,

finished this beautiful sculpt from SOL, depicting salve Yeosol from the Korean movie Musa. The casting and fit was excellent despite the size, but as usual from SOL, painted in acrylics.

All comments are welcome!

Not at all familiar with this character, nonetheless this is an exceptional piece.

Thank you for the comments!

@Jenghiz, yes, Musa means warrior and the title varied. The positure is based on the movie's poster. The figure is available again

@Joe55, not a cult character for sure, but the figure is outstanding.

Cheers

Cracking work !

Nice one

Actually SOL is back in business and selling again, but its either through their website or e-bay. I haven't seen any retailers in the US or elsewhere selling their stuff. They do make some nice figs, their 200mm Fallschirmjager in the Ardennes is one of the best figs I have ever had,

Awesome! It may be a stunning figure, but its your wonderful brushwork that's done it justice!

Holy Moly! What a face!
One of the best painted figs that I watched this year!
Congrats!

[Blue Thunder]

I'll second that, Zeno!

Denes, this piece is stunning! It's not just the tones - it's the artistic expression as well! You pretty nailed it superbly well! Congratulations!

Wow! I've got this one sitting in my stash but I know mine will never look this good. A fine job on what is an excellent kit. Do you have the swordsman kit they put out from the same movie. It's also a fantastic kit.
Again a fine job,
Gerald

 

[Edorta]

Absolutely brilliant, very realistic, I love it. All the work in the hair, face, fabrics, blood, ground is perfect.
Congratulations.

Wow that is nice, and its great that SOL is back again, I had quite a few of their kits, never this one though as I didn't know anything about the movie, wish I had!!! Great painting especially on the weave of the smock and the blood is also well done

Thanks for taking the time to comment, you're too kind! The figure offers himself with the stance and all fine details, actually got to know the film after I got it.
There is a pair of it, general Choi Yung with a sword, will follow some day. Both are perfect copies of their movie character, but I think Musa is way more cool.

Thanks again!
Denes
