SOLIDER BOY SCHOONY 7/10 ICONIC LIVECAST SILVER RESIN STATUE, by egorka on Nov 21, 2016 0:37:09 GMT 1, This piece came to me by a magic grace....
40cm icon of Schoony's famous campaign against children going to war.
This is the original figure of titled "Soldier Boy" by the British artist Schoony.
A limited edition of 10 was produced and signed by the artist as a scaled follow-up of the world-famous version of full body height (120cm) Soldier Boy. The live-cast was taken from the artist's 9-year old nephew and has gained global attention. Schoony's Soldier Boy raised awareness of children being sent to war in countries such as Afganistan and Iraq. Actors Benedict Cumberbatch and Bradd Pitt along with a few other lucky celebrities purchased it to show their support. The figure also starred in movies such as Kiss-Ass 2. The Soldier Boy was also displayed at a campaign in front of Houses of Parliament in London. Shoony has worked on special effects for blockbusters such as: Rambo, Tomb Raider, Harry Potter, Gladiator, Troy and many more.
Produced in 2012 and signed by Schoony in 2014.
The figure is made from fibre-glass and covered with silver paint with a beautiful shine. The boy ignites emotions and resembles courage and hope over sadness. A very realistic body.
Condition is superb. Height is 40cm, width of base is 18cm. Weighs 1.7kg.
The artist signed the base with permanent silver marker "7/10 Schoony".
I will provide it's original receipt. Moreover, I even have a correspondence with Schoony himself about as inquired for authenticity of this piece!
GBP 1,250
Located in SE London.

Comes with original purchase receipt. Also, attaching my brief correspondence with the artist about this item.
Can meet in central London or I can send with Signed and Tracked International Standard delivery or Special recorded 1st class UK following the receipt of payment.
Questions are welcome Egor.
