King of Fighters Mai Shiranui Statue by Kinetiquettes
I don't know if it's just me, but something about these photos makes the color on this statue look off. Like the red doesn't look red enough, and the "skin" just seems off somehow, too (which is an issue given Mai tends to show off quite a bit of that "skin"). Maybe it's the lighting, I don't know.
