Description These statues were purchased by my father in Gabon. They're really neat to look at on the shelf, and they are quite intimidating. Please give me an honest comment. Danke

very nice lighting and texture... really cool statues too. i like how the close up works and the way the shot gets really dark towards the bottom... nice work

thank you. Other people seem to disagree with the lighting I used, but I purposely did it. The other face was not meant to be seen. Thanks

The lightning is perfect..
i like the angle, first thought it was standing faced to a mirror.
but read the text, and with a closer look..
but i wished i could see more of the right head though.
what is the reason for it?. nah.. dosen't have to be any.. just a little drunk

I'm not sure. I did do a picture with them face to face, but I tried different angles and just happened to like this one the best.

I think with a closer look the texture is enjoyable to watch. Good perspective, but i would like to see it at another angle. The lighting is done superbly.

i really enjoy the shadows(lighting). are they just heads or is there a body with them too?

Good perspective and lighting. Looks similar to Tiki artwork... Reminiscent of the Easter Island statues too.

Great work!

i think there are 2 really sweet things about this.
1. the lighting. the bright hair and the shadows under the eyes makes for a really neat, interesting shot

2. the back of the head. you can see the front of the statue, and the other one lets you see the other side, and it also feels like shes about to kiss herself, which is intresting. sorta like kissing the mirror...
