That looks excellent!

Just a shame that whoever made the "official" statue could not get that same likeness....

Is that a master that you've carved (if so, what from?), or a resin one you've cast from a master??

A master from fimo I have a new method in producing figures and so far Im pleased with the process. These are a new line in my realism for the seriously minded lol.

Maybe he should sit on his weather vane. A man whos keen interest in steam and they give him a weather vane to hold why not an oil can or a pint of guiness or why not a pose scratching his head benneath his cap.!
