Wow, it has been a thrilling week for the entire PaperFilms team! We’ve got several announcements that came out this week, so we wanted to share the great news with all of our fans.
First, we have partnered with Phicen Limited and Executive Replicas to create an incredible Jimmy Palmiotti and Joe Quesada creation: Painkiller Jane 1/6 statue based on the amazing artwork of Amanda Conner. The detail on this statue is amazing. It has gone through several sessions with the team to craft the final version. She’s exactly what we envisioned this character to be. We hope you agree, this is truly a special result! Here are some images of the statue:
