“She spent about 20 hours building it first out of a wire frame, and then out of modelling clay and painting it and it’s a bit over 12 inches tall,” wrote Shockwaver. “You can see in progress shots as well as her Thane and Blasto the Hanar Spectre statues at her DeviantArt site.”

Generally, I let this thing slide, but after a while, it becomes ridiculous that ‘professionals’ can improperly write a short post or give proper credit to someone who definitely deserves it.
Nice job silverwillow, the statue is awesome.

Wednesday, June 22, 2011 at 4:12 PMWow, brian – “some dude’s wife”? Not cool. Why not lead with ‘Awesome fan-made Mass Effect Statue’. You know, the, same sort of headline kotaku usually runs with when talking about fan creations made by dudes? And, you know, maybe mention her name, given that you’re linking to her deviant art account.
