"Cristiano Ronaldo asked that they removed crease of his bust"

The sculptor of the controversial bust devoted to Cristiano Ronaldo during the renombramiento of the Airport of Funchal, Emanuel Santos, has conceded an interview to the radio program "Què t'hi jugues?", of Radius Barcelona, in which it has recognised that Cristiano Ronaldo asked him some modifications in the bust, especially that it removed crease them under the left eye.

"Cristiano asked me remove crease them of the left eye to be younger", has admitted Emanuel Santos, recognising that the resemblance of the bust to the real image of Cristiano Ronaldo is not neither much less perfect. "They failed a bit the strokes of the face", ensures, although it says that a possible cause was "the step to bronze" of the bust, after having been two weeks to do the sculpture in clay.

It accepts the criticisms, but has not made too much self-criticism in relation to the final result of the work. "The sculpture has not achieved to like to all the world. Any artist achieves to like to all the world", has valued, subtracting importance to the big quantity of "memes" and pranks of all type that have invaded the social networks from the past Wednesday.

And it is that it can not say that the bust seem too much to Cristiano Ronaldo, but rather to a version deform of his face. In any case, sure that it will be an authentic catchword for the travellers that go out or go in to the airport of Madeira.
