Comrade Hero Character Reference Template by the very talented Scott Turk (aka Graver). Will be used for base reference for the sculpture I'm getting done by Shanon Brocas.

Love when Graver goes digital, not that his w/c's aren't the best... just fun to see him play.

Very cool... you should probably put links to the artist's DA pages though (for the few who don't yet know who Graver is). That should be a sweet statue when done. Any idea what the scale of it will be?

Whoops... Added Graver's and Lee's deviantART links.

Thanks for the reminder.

Statue scale between 7in (17.8cm) to 12in (30.5cm).

Damn Graver's good. I really like Comrade Hero too. He's a cool character.

Comrade Hero returns your warm display of comradely fraternity! And yes, Graver is damned good, this turned out really well.

Graver was incredibly patient and paid incredible attention to detail. Virtually everything that Comrade Hero is wearing in this picture is based on real world clothing and equipment.

Russia/CCCP:
Boots.
Gloves.
Belt Buckle.

United States:
Tactical Belt.
Uniform - based on layered soft armor concepts.

I love the piece and it only serves to remind me I've been wanting to commission Graver for a long time now...

I noticed his DA pages seem.. un-updated... does anyone know if his pricing and queue times are about the same?

Thanks all. Rest assured that Graver is around, you can reach him by email.

Shannon Brocas has Graver's wonderful work in hand as well as some additional physical and uniform references I've sent him.

Decided to go with a head to waist sculpture rather than the full sized one. Not so much influenced by cost, but practicality. Shannon will do the sculpting, his father will do the painting. Project to take around three months.

Will keep updated.
