Thanks. Na I always knew I would pass on Project Triforces's HUGE statue and scythe replica. Too much for me and especially the scythe it would be almost impossible to display and keep safe.

Of course, this makes me wonder about what kind of material they made this out of, probably PVC, semi-polystone?
Here are the main issues. The detail is crap, the paint is also crap, you can see the whole section of where the horse head was glued on and it does not even come close to blending. The orange paint on the base looks like it was just drizzled and splattered on and looks awful (plus I think anytime they try to make a "glowing" effect with orange paint it looks just awful). Another small thing is Ruin's right rear leg seems misshapen to me (though this may just be a personal thing as my family has Clydesdale horses and it just looks wrong... or how the in game model looked when in the position).

There is more but you get the idea. I can take pics of these things if you want so you can really see what i mean. For example the last one they made (Samael) was really good (even the Death SOTA one looks a good leap better then this... actually the recent cheap Death one from Gaya has better detail)... but this War & Ruin was their first attempt and it looks like it.

It is made of a plastic type resin (think AC statues), different hardnesses too (for the cape and chains it is all softer to avoid breaking but both the ones i own were bought broken in those ares anyways).
