COP 2 - Practical: Figures that inspire me

Darkseid 

This enormous, heavy, towering figure comes from DC Collectables, and as we come to expect it has an incredible sculpt, and an amazing level of detail, using the paint to create different textures and modelling to create different surfaces. The red chest-piece, is a clear, spheric, glass looking material, giving the whole figure a better presence. I love the way his rock like skin is done, with smaller rocks around the more posable places of the body shows the designer really thought about how he would actually move, if this concept were to be real. However as expected the joints in the tops half of the figure are good, but the lower half consist of up and down at the hip and knee per leg, which is frankly disappointing.
