Other than looking anachronistically well-cosmetic'd, it's actually not a bad look, I dig it

[–] taiyang@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

That was my thought, it's not nearly as bad as a lot of the botched restorations we've seen.

It's the brows and pouty lips that get me. 🥵

What do you mean botched? That lip gloss is poppin'! Saint Annie has a baptism at 9 and a foam party at 9:30!

I thought someone was doing a live recreation of the statue. D for restoration work, A+ for photorealism.
