Art student creates Kratos sculpture

by Majed Athab { Mar 19th 2008 at 7:45PM }

For every Greek God, there is a statue. For what better way is there to immortalize an immortal than to construct an effigy? You know you've made God status when mortals start sculpting your very likeness. Today, we have Humber College student Sheldon P. to thank for this lovingly violent sculpture of God of War's hero Kratos.

The sculpture, titled "Ghost of Sparta," is currently on display at the 2008 Humber Art Show: Thou Art Your Art. If you're interested in seeing the sculpture in person or just have nothing to do next week, you can still catch the exhibition on March 24 and 25 up in Toronto. Or, why not make your own Kratos sculpture? In the words of Neil Buchanan: try it yourself!

Have another look at the sculpture after the break.

This reminds me of a familiy guy quote.

"Do I...Do I have to sculpt the penis?"

very nice! Can't wait to see it when it's finished.

*Edit* Had a second look at the thread; didn't see the other photos. It is indeed gorgeous.
