This is really cool but I think it would of been better if they was closer together like in the reference photo

I like the base, it's simple but effective! Buffy is sculpted beautifully!! I love the stance on her and think she's painted very well. My only critique is angel's face looks a little bit on the thin side. What angel head did you use? If it was one of those Moore ones that probably explains it. I always thought the DST angels were the better likeness. Other than that I think this is a cute piece shame it wasn't made around february for a valentines love theme!!

Thank you guys for your comments
@roadie : Yes I used a serie 1 Angel figure. I realized Angel looked very young and thin in the first season so I wanted to keep that and this head seemed to be the best option.
You're right, that could have been a good "valentine" custom ^^

Did the customer request the stance distance? I wonder if they should stand closer too.

It looks good, but I wonder if Buffy's eyebrown make her look more pained than excited. But I wouldn't re-do it, since she will be standing with her left to the window.

@sineya : The buyer wanted the moment before they kiss. I tried to make them closer but sometimes it's just impossible with the parts. Angel's neck wasn't dropped enough.

I think they are both well done mango. I realize customizing is harder than one would think.
