When I ordered it, I was a wee bit afeared it would turn out to be like the
"Flash of Two Worlds" cover recreation, which can really only be looked at
from head on, thru one eye!
As you can see -- this is not a problem!
(How odd -- my spellchecker recognizes "afeared"!)

Just noticed there's a dot of packing styrofoam on his right elbow.
NOT part of the model!

The sculptor opted not to put the chainmail on the helmet/mask, I notice.
Probably smart. It would have been kinda busy.

Cats and little kids always love the boxes.
Love the statue, but one thing that immediately jumps out at me is the difference in the shades of red in the shield and Cap's uniform. Not sure I'm crazy about that deeper shade of red.

Works for me as the difference between red paint and (worn) red leather.
