Re: Diana’s statue

Most of Ian Rank Broadley's statues seem to be of men so unsurprising if it's masculine.

The black kid is there to ensure that BLM doesn't pull it down.

Re: Diana’s statue

Oh dear. This looks horrible. It doesn’t look anything like her . She’s scowling? Why pick such a scowling expression? Who are the kids?
Terrible !

Re: Diana’s statue

I'm not really bothered either way but the face isn't very like hers.

Admittedly it is easier to do a sculpture off a live model but Diana was so photographed there must have been any amount of reference photos .

This is my first sculpture ever using a live model

And it looks just like him

This is my second another live model



I was expecting something really great

Muddy looking at those, you certainly could have done a better likeness of Diana than that sculpture has done, it's hideous.

I know, Bratti, it's a catastrophe. How are we meant to carry on with our lives knowing that statue exists.
