I like it very much and i do agree with the person who was talking about the nails going through his ankles and wrists, but it still looks very good. About one main thing stopping it from looking more realistic: blood. Lots and lots of it if your going for the realistic effect, just like the Passion of the Christ. And the dark one looks better, he would have gotten a lot of sun in his time, and he would have had a fairly dark complexion to begin with. But i like it anyways, and i like the reasons behind it. I'll be watching the progress of this for sure. Keep up the good work, and God bless.
