I don't think it is bentMaybe I just don't understand how the shield works, but are they usually bent like that one?
The knight itself looks great, for the record. Don't like the shield (mind you, I understand it) as much.
Overall, I love it. Don't want to sound unappreciative for all you have done. Does the picture above not make it look bent to you? Is it just a trick angle?I don't think it is bent

Saw him on the BB Board during the tournament.
agreed. I mentioned that on the 1st page almost 2 years ago when this thread started. 1 in front of the RAC, 1 on River Road in front of the stadium (maybe 1 in front of the North gate too)Eventually I'd love to see RU do what MSU has...they have 3 Spartan statues on campus. I think eventually RU should get a Knight statue on each campus...4 total. One for College Ave (this one), then one each for Busch, Livingston, and Cook/Douglass. The seniors are going to have so much fun with this.
It doesn't look bent; that's just the shape of the shield.Overall, I love it. Don't want to sound unappreciative for all you have done. Does the picture above not make it look bent to you? Is it just a trick angle?
It's really cool how it's actually legit mideival armor. The shield looks like paper mache though. I thought it would be an actual medeival style shield just like the armor. It sort of looks like it doesn't fit.Maybe I just don't understand how the shield works, but are they usually bent like that one?

yes the plume which is also scarlet is there....we purchased actual medieveil armor (obviously a reproduction and very expensive to use as a model) the shield came with it ....It's really cool how it's actually legit mideival armor.

Also is there a plume coming out of the helmet?

Awesome! Very excited to see it this weekend.
Now just need a Henry Rutgers statue when the main quad is built someday.
Awesome job to whoever got this done.
Thanks for all the kind word . As a Rutgers Alumni RC 82' and RLaw 85'
I always thought this was a missing piece of the spirit and pride part of the puzzle (not that there are but others )
Sometime it's best to take matters into your own hands. This has been our rallying cry for all of the College Ave Redevelopment Initiative .... we appreciate all the input and constructive criticism from the board and hope we can continue to carry on this crusade to make Rutgers a better place together
I would like to see a raised sword one in front of the Stadium and the RAC on a higher podium like at UCF.hasn't posted in over a year

I'm very appreciative of @Cofifa getting this done & donating it. I like it, but have 2 nits that I mentioned earlier, which would make this a grand slam for me: (i) block R on chest & (ii) sword up, like this pose or even higher:

Cofifa.
You should make replicas of it a part of every new building on campus that DEVCO builds moving forward.
Smaller versions in the lobby of new academic buildings would be awesome.
...and the city of NB! Was in the area today by the medical complex. Wish I knew this was here to stop by and see it. Are there any bollards around it? At only 900 pounds, I can see pranksters trying to haul it...Great job Cofifa. Devco has done wonders for this university.
