The new statue, apparently in the old days, the great Khmer warriors would drink and/or rub a magic potion on their skin to protect them against arrows and spears etc. This magic potion would cause their skin to become very dark, which could be a reason why the artist of the new statue painted him black. I'm not sure why the new statue looks skinnier.
