I said the real Man of Steel.
Perfection
This is the first of 3 statues that are thematically connected and are about USSRs part in world war 2.
This is Home Front to Front metaphorically smithing the sword, since that area had a lot of industrial complexes that produced arms. The next one is The Motherland Calls about the will and need to fight, with the sword raised high. And the last one, the Soviet War Memorial, is in Berlin, its about lowering the sword at the end of the war.
I’m no tankie and it’s all very complicated, but…The Motherland Calls is the baddest ass of all statues, in my opinion. Not super easy to get to and see, unfortunately.
Yeah, hopefully someday it will be ethical to visit those statues again. Because they are indeed awesome.
That is cool as hell!
What kind of Final Fantasy bullshit is this?
Dude on the right isn’t really helping much.
He’s just spotting. “Three more reps, bro! You got this!”
Gimme my sword back, give i-tah
And now… the gay mating dance of the Centurions.
That statue is bass ass.
