I've never tried to create a statue in bronze, but I would hazard a guess that it's a tricky process; and as I was a pretty poor potter and sculptor at school, it's an art in which I expect I wouldn't win any prizes.
In life, I've always been careful to choose to study subjects and practise work, art and sport that I had some kind of natural aptitude for: science, business, music and football over languages, technical labour, dancing and (bloody) golf, for example.
And I would hope that I've always been internally honest enough to say to myself, "Look, you really are inherently cack as shyyte at this, just give it up now before you embarrass everyone around you any further/maim anyone else."
And at the other end of the scale, gentlemen and other gentlemen, I give you Emanuel Santos:

New Ronaldo bust
posted on 31/3/18
The teeth are all wrong in the first one. The nose is good on the first one. Second one is all wrong. Does this facker even know what Ronaldo looks like?

He's messed up the mouth area. The lips in the second one look weird. Not Ronaldo at all. The first one is something Phil Jones would muster up in one of his gurns.

The second one might be passable as Ronaldo with a more accurate nose, lips, eyes, eyebrows, eyelids, cheekbones, ears, hair, hairline, jawline, forehead and neck.
To be fair though, the colour is pretty accurate.

The first one is based on Ronaldo’s seeeex face.

The second one isnt perfect but it’s clearly Ronaldo, also busts aren’t made to be 100% accurate, they’re artistic interpretations with certain parts exaggerated for effect. Clearly the first one was terrible but I think it also wasn’t helped by the lighting of the photo making it look like a greasy chocolate egg.

Ronnie's been a real gentleman during this whole debacle, shows his true colors as a humble man. Wouldn't put it past him giving the old one to Quinn either, that'd be a gasser!

The sculpter certainly has an uncanny ability to make his produce look nothing like who they are meant to be.
