WIP Red Sonja figure

I prefer the first one. I like how the throne fills the frame and that she more or less looks into the camera. And her posture was very strong. It is a little weaker now due to the way her left leg is not relaxed but instead tensed to block the view. Modesty is a weakness!

Still, beautiful shot of course and I would have noticed none of that had it not been for that excellent shot earlier.

I also like the first image better, but it is not about the pose or the perspective, both of which are fine in both photos; I think it is the light that makes the first photo more magical, and maybe the position of her head is nicer. To my eyes, what was unsuitable was the clothing/gear (or lack thereof), nothing else, although in that respect the new angle is better.

That pic is so cool! she looks so relaxed and yet still quite dominate. Nice positioning!

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I have actually made one shot that is closer to the lighting of the first image. I just dropped it, because the minions were not fully in the frame. Maybe this is more to your liking...

Thanks for watching...

Great pictures. On that one she looks a bit like a red haired Lagertha from vikings.
Love outdoor shots and you have a great eye

YESSSSSS!!!!
I love how bada$$ she looks!

The third throne photo works beautifully. I just received something I picked up after being inspired by you.

Did your troll arrive? I hope you having a lot of fun with it.

Yes! I love it, even if it does not have knee articulation. The neck peg is a bit of a pain to work with if you remove one of the heads, but a little heat helps as usual. I'm trying to decide if I should just gloss or also repaint the eyes.

This is the one I got (not my photo -- haven't taken any yet, it just arrived literally a few minutes ago and I was cutting through twisties) --
