Teenagers do tend to be a bit gangly though. It might be off for an adult, but for a 16-year-old, it seems about right.

As a once gangly teen, I understand that.  Perhaps its the high waist pants.  The belt buckle is parallel to his elbows.  The distance from the chest to the belt buckle look normal but the distance from the belt buckle to the crotch is extremely long.  I don't remember Indy's uniform being cut that way.

Yeah. The pants are hiked up a bit too high.

Here's a couple of pics of my latest finished piece…

Excellent face -- tho he looks disturbingly like he's been torn in half and his
innards are spilling out!

I think that the uniform "fit" is more inspired by the Boy Scouts uniform at the time. but  he did have his pants hiked up a bit like that in the movie.

Most Definitely! I believe these were posted before, but Adam Hughes' design is nice.

The White Queen is much more true to Adam's drawing than the Mary Jane
sculpt. I had the latter on pre-order, at one time, and cancelled it when I
saw better pictures of the model. It lost the inherent whimsy of Adam's
work entirely.

That's a shame, He , Like you, Draws some of the best women in comics. Too bad it didn't translate that well into the sculpt.

CONAN!
War paint Conan from the battle in the orgy pit scene.
I watched this VHS tape a million times when I was a kid.



Comes with Atlantean sword, stewed head and hand and base.



Thong or no thong? YOU ask him.
