JND Superman (1978) Dual Version Original 1:3 Hyperreal Movie Statue

With the thought that this could be the last Christopher Reeve Superman statue to be produced, we wanted this piece to be the most meaningful and most glorious. We wanted this iteration's quality to reach a level never reached before.

First, to encompass all that Reeve portrayed in this film, we had to have a version with both Superman and Clark Kent. The dual version needed to show both the awkward character and the most awesome superhero. Of course, the single version also needed to stand alone satisfactorily for the collectors who would choose it. The way we decide on the material and production method is by seeing which expression seems the most realistic. And for this piece, we decided to express the outfit by 3D modeling and painting, instead of using fabric. We tried using fabric, and there were points about the fabric that got in the way for me in terms of realism. And as you know from JND The Batman, we pride ourselves in our ability to create texture through 3D modeling. Reeve's Superman suit was even more difficult to express than The Batman's. The solid suit had to look seamless along with the cape, which is fabric. And the wrinkles or stretched parts of the suit had to be very detailed.

We considered Clark Kent to be the vital point of this piece. He's got a lot of accessories. The 3-piece suite, the trench coat, the hat, glasses, wristwatch, leather briefcase, and a newspaper. They each required intensive effort to make the details come alive. For example, we inserted a thin aluminum wire into the glasses' temples to make it extra realistic. The job took extra attention - as much as it took for Harley Quinn's dentures. As we continue to improve our techniques, we never stop experimenting to see if not only is it the most realistic, but is it also replicable in production.
