My first premium statue

I pre-ordered Artorias the Abysswalker statue awhile ago and it finally came this week. I actually missed the pre-order window by two days last June so this was a wait list order. When I got the email about the waitlist been met and will be converted to a live order I was initially quite hesitant. This was pretty expensive. It's tagged at $499.99 USD not including shipping and handling. After much thought I decided to bite the bullet. Sacrificing a few eating outs in a year vs. having something nice to look at on my shelf for ten years to come seems to be worth it for me. Plus, I really love his armor design above anything else in the Soul's series. The hoodie helm is a really nice touch.

The exclusive edition is set at 1400 pieces world wide. Comes with an art print and two additional uncursed great swords. First4Figures is also making Sif and Solaire, but I'm not sure, might pass on those two and wait for Ornstein, since wallet is crying. The statue is 21" in height, just about if you were to stack five coke cans on top of each other.

Box is the size of a mini-fridge

Base number, pretty happy with the low number

In other news, working on a drawing of Filianore at the moment. She is a new NPC featured from The Ringed City DLC for Dark Souls 3. I'm only about an hour into the DLC at the moment, but it's pretty fun so far. I'm currently using Friede's Great Scythe for maximum fashion soulness but I don't think I have enough stamina to actually use it probably, oh well, gotta look dope.
