Despite being a couple of years on from its release, Red Dead Redemption 2 has still managed to captivate players. One fan in particular has gone to extreme lengths to pay homage to Rockstar's hit western game, creating an incredibly detailed statue featuring Arthur and his horse.
Red Dead Redemption 2 introduced a new playable hero by the name of Arthur Morgan, who was one of the influential figures in John Marston's life. The game has been praised for its incredible story as well as its stunning open world featuring the United States during the Wild West era. It's no surprise then that fans of Red Dead Redemption have spent plenty of time hunting for new details and finding new ways to celebrate the game.
An artist by the name Crafty Art has gone above and beyond to create an incredibly lifelike clay sculpture of Arthur Morgan and his trusty horse. In the 20 minute YouTube video, the detailed craftsmanship and many hours spent creating the famous character can be seen. What begins as a few wires and some foil transforms into an instantly recognizable small scale model of Arthur. Every detail of the character is spot on, even down to the individual locks of hair on his horse.
Crafty Arts has created other amazing statues on their account, some of which feature hit characters such as PS4's Spider-Man and a dragon from Game of Thrones. In the video description for their Red Dead Redemption statue, Crafty Art's says the sculpture is a "tribute to Arthur Morgan, one of the greatest video game characters of all time."
The artist's creation is also testament to the amount of work the developers at Rockstar put into the character of Arthur, by making him a fully fleshed out character. Throughout the game, players have the option to impact Arthur's morality and decide whether he is known as honorable or not, which changes how he is received by others during the game. After spending around 50 hours completing Arthur's journey, it's no wonder fans are attached to the Red Dead Redemption 2 character.
While there's no word on whether Arthur will return in a future Red Dead Redemption game, the franchise is still gaining plenty of popularity via its online modes. Just recently Red Dead Online was updated to feature new hunting missions and legendary animals, giving players plenty to do until a new game in the franchise is hopefully released.
Red Dead Redemption 2 is available now on PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
