Description
This is a 1:7 scale solid bronze cast statue of Supergirl. She is mounted on a piece of rock that I retrieved from a trip up the old abandoned Kettle Valley railroad in June 2014.
Supergirl is shown in her bare midriff costume from DC comics Superman/Batman issue #13 in October 2004, illustrated by Michael Turner.
The figurine is cast in parts that are silver soldered together. Her body is cast in a natural bronze alloy made from copper and tin. Her cape, boots, and hair are all cast in a yellow brass alloy. She is colored with a heat cured decorative enamel that is virtually equivalent to hard-fired enamel.
She is made from over 1 kg of bronze, fully cast and assembled. Her cape alone weighs over 360 grams.
The silicon bronze contains 95% Cu, 4% Si, 1% Mn. The yellow brass has 63% copper, 1% lead, and various amounts of zinc and tin.
