wow !!! This is amazing man… Really liked the attitude on chris… U captured it perfectly… Great body toning… Also the material is pretty good… As a child a used to hate chris bcoz he used to win fights by cheat…hehehe… But here m liking it a lot. Great art = top row !
good show.
I HAVE to chime in. This is a really great job on the model… BUT… this is VERY sad to see someone pay tribute to a DIRT BAG such as this. Please, I am asking you as a father, and one that works with Special Needs children, TAKE THIS THREAD DOWN. Honoring some peice of filth as this man was, debate it all you want, he was DISGUSTING… this is just not right AT ALL.
As robo3687 said… he murdered his wife and 7 year old disabled son…then hung himself…

kmkenpo- i had no idea, i was just talking about the art being good.
Thats sad now I hear it, hes no hero of mine either…
Thanks for stopping by guys,but wait,the project was to show the legacy of this wrestler and i wanted to capture that.this is nothing related to his personal life,and i m not asking anyone to take him as their role model or something.this was all abt his fight show with rival randy orton.well i havn’t said that he was my rolemodel,please let the one to show the art.
Hey Romil, how have you been? Glad to see your new stuff!
Man, this is great! I love the sculpt/polypaint and presentation! Great work on the anatomy; great flow and weight! Cool skull render too.
I must add that I do not know WWE very well, I can only look and judge these images from what I see here (scrolling down and reading some of the comments made me understand the tragedy behind Chris B)
romilkchoprazb said “…but wait,the project was to show the legacy of this wrestler…”
I am so sorry t be the on to try and make the comments SO LOUDLY… it just gets under my skin. There was an article on Yahoo news or some such a month or so ago. The MMA guy, immediately gave God the glory, and repeatedly told te fans that God was the one responsible for the gifts he had recieved. I went NUTS when the writer of the article, COMPLETELY mis-informed the public of what the MMA guy had said, twisting the words and leaving things out.
This type of thing here, as GOOD as you are, the artist who made these images, this type of representation of pathetically sad person such as Chris Benoit… I am sorry, but this should be taken down. If the Moderators won’t do it, then YOU should have the common decency to do so.
Please, again, this is a wonderful job of modelling, but the subject matter SHOULD have been thought about in MUCH greater detail. He MURDERED his wife and son for goodness sake. Why are you trying to honor this? Give it some thought, I know you will do the right thing.
Thank you for listening to me rant about this… it is VERY near and dear to my heart.

You should burn every Michael Jackson CD ever made, blow up every Roman Polanski DVD, and don’t forget to sneak into Germany and burn every picture, portrait and statue of Hitler too. Its a free country, and as long as there is freedom of speech, let him be. Great work on the sculpts.
This is a forum about art, stop jumping in about how disgusted you are and leave the guy be.
kaisasose…I live in Germany and please believe me - there are NO Hitler statues…
you watched to much tv…from world war II…
i dont know this wrestler …and thats for shure a tragic story…
wow, those 2 guys are looking great. Benoit’s likeness is head on accurate there, i don’t know about randy orton though.
Really excellent job on Mr. Benoit!
Too bad that he went completely nuts and well…you know…
Great hommage though! 
Hey Romil,
Great work Man. Good to see you with awsome art work. My side 5 Star.
I know O/MI, I was just exaggerating for effect. :lol: But on a serious note, noone should bring their personal grievances on to ZBC and high jack a thread with good artwork in it.
Damn!
You nailed Chris Benoit PERFECTLY.
Orton’s body is perfect, but I don’t think you have the face just yet.
And BTW: Upon performing the autopsy on Benoit, it was discovered that the years of abuse he put his body through during his career resulted in him having a brain as damaged as an 85 year old with severe dementia. It is no doubt that the events surrounding his death were horrible, but the man was not lucid enough to be responsible for his actions.
Great tribute to a great wrestler.
kaisasose… You should burn every Michael Jackson CD ever made, blow up every Roman Polanski DVD, and don’t forget to sneak into Germany and burn every picture, portrait and statue of Hitler too.
Umm… Michael Jackson was a child rapist, threads paying homage to him should be closed as well. Roman Polanski and Hitler, come on, even YOU can see where those belong.
And for meanboythecat… the autopsy and the “having a brain as damaged as an 85 year old with severe dementia”… here is another person that completely ignores the fact that an icon is placed on a pedestal, somehow gets a pass for STUPID and IRRESPONSIBLE choices, as long as they are making people happy in the sports world. I am amazed at how easily people ignore and except bad decisions, as long as they get something out of the deal.
Come on guys… you know, somewhere inside, this is wrong. Again, I guess I was hoping for more.
kaisasose… hijacking a thead? Please. Just trying to be a moral compass in a really screwed up world. Obviously, your compass was dropped or busted a good while back, sad. I said it was a really good sculpt, yet the subject matter was not something to honor.
Etcher; Hey man long time no see,thanks for stopping by man,and how is ur construction going on at home?nice updates in ur thread.i think after going through this thread and by reading all those comments.u will come to know abt WWE.just kidding man;) .
kmkenpo; As meanboythecat said that definitely(the man was not lucid enough to be responsible for his actions),even not only the artists around the globe are paying michael jackson a hommage but also the tv channels around the globe has been busy somewhere to give him hommage,take an example of Chris benoit,all the WWE guys paid him hommage,because he had his own legacy,this doesn’t mean that u can’t make an artwork on such guy.i can tell u lot of other cases as such i mentioned,so please don’t take it personally.please agian i m recalling that the project was to capture the era of the man.so i don’t think there is something wrong in it,as everybody has the freedom of speech an art.
kaisasose; Thanks for the reply man.
KonginChains; Thanks for the reply man,u got nice sculpt in ur thread keep going.
FoxHound1984; Thanks man.
ashwani_raj1985; HoHo thanks man,long time no see.
meanboythecat;Thanks for appreciating the art man.
why the hell are you comparing MJ to this dirtbag I have no idea…
anyway I won’t go into what I’m thinking after reading the comments here. Just wanted to say the modeling is really good - I like the body a lot - it has a bit of a stylized look to it which is great.
de durka duuurrrrrr!
romilkchoprazb… You are right, you have the right to “free speech”, sadly, everyone uses that excuse. I am not mad at you exactly, although I am sad about how you view things such as this. Honoring dirt is still, honoring dirt. You have the right, so, erect a life size statue in you living room if you want. And, just like you, I have the same right to “free speech”, as well as “free thought”… I know that this next comment won’t mean much, but hopefully it will make some small impact… I respect you as an artist, but as a person, I hold no respect for acts such as this. Again, really nice work, it is just sad that you gave less thought to this and can’t look beyond the common “tribute to a great athlete” garbage. I am now moving on with my life.
