minus-squareJuiceyb [any]hexbear5·7 months agoI think Tito's hands behind his back truly captures his legacy. It's not an inactive stance but one of concern and it looks like he's listening to his comrades. I also hate 99% of statues but this one is good. link
minus-squareInevitableSwing [none/use name]hexbear1·7 months ago I also hate 99% of statues I've hated them ever since I was a little kid. This conversation between me and my mom never happened but I'm pretending that it did... "Why is that so dumb?" "The statue?" "Yeah. It's stupid." "You shouldn't think that way." [My mom was always trying to get me to look at the bright side.] "But it's stupid. Isn't it?" "I don't like it but it's not stupid." "So you think it's stupid too!" "I didn't say that. But it doesn't look right. It doesn't look natural. He's not... in a natural pose." "What's 'pose'?" link
