- strangeloops85 6y agoYeah - the statues are not necessarily accurate depictions to begin with.
- dwd 6y agoYou would probably expect the artist to idealise the features to a degree for their health's sake. A Christiano Ronaldo statue would not go down well with any that had delusions of being a deity.
- I_HALF_CATS 6y agoAs the creator I must say there is a lot of misunderstanding in all the comments above but people are making many valid points. On a side-note you might be interested to see that I have tried to reconstruct that horrible Ronaldo statue. https://twitter.com/dvoshart/status/1287888497286750208 https://twitter.com/dvoshart/status/1287888497286750208
- dwd 6y agoThere's a ton of memes where people have skewed photos to look like the statue that are hideously amusing. The statue should have looked like what you produced: I can only guess bronze was hard to work with or redo when it goes horribly wrong.
- csomar 6y agoNot quite. Gordian II, Diduis Julianus, Philip The Arab. They do have clear eye-asymmetry that is quite common today. Maybe it was part of our evolution?
