Do you dare to gaze into the eyes of the one who would be your end?
You may be surprised to discover a hint of pity there
In the Court of the Dead - an original dark fantasy universe created by Sideshow - only Death stands between the Mortal Realm and the warring heavens. Seeking to restore balance to the universe, Death created the Court of the Dead: His Queen, a Chancellor, and an Executioner…
This intricately rendered and hyper-detailed portrait of Oglavaeil, Death’s Executioner, provides a unique view of a compelling character torn between his morbid duty and his compassion for those he must end. Despite his awesome destructive power, Oglavaeil is a gentle spirit. These conflicting elements of the Executioner’s nature have been wonderfully conveyed by Sideshow’s artistic team.
The bust is 23” wide, and expertly crafted from polystone with a metal supporting rod for balance. It is sold with a removable magnetic jaw piece, which offers different expressions for the Oglavaeil portrait. A Sideshow Exclusive version of this piece also features a “Blind Justice” mask.
