Does this look like Jerry Rice?


Rice poses for his Pro Football Hall of Fame bust.

I don't see the likeness.

3. Are you kidding? That's amazing scuplting work.
The only thing throwing it off is the heavier eyelids on the bust and the sterner expression. Other than that, yeah, it does look like him to me. Easily. The nose, the brow ridge, the cheek bones, the jaw line, the mouth...these are all done to near perfection.

If you get the chance to ever visit Canton you'll see that's there's a lot that are far worse than this one. :)

6. Done in the classic Greek manner
and by that making everyone look the same because you're mnot trying to get a likeness, but trying to show perfection.
