I'm sorry but that looks like Jerry Lewis and not Johnny Bench But it neat looking anyway.
Keep up the good work. For the record I know it is his Rookie card since I own one, but just looked
off to me.

Simply amazing! How big are these 'cards/photos'? They look like they are around 12x20 but I'm sure I'm way off.

After reading your article about the time taken I don't think I could stay focused on a project for that long. Again, they all look great and keep up the great work!

Thanks everyone!

To answer some of the above:

1) Pine Tar: This one was much more difficult to get the facial features just right, as it was more of a full-body pose than any other project to date. It was incredibly difficult to get the detail exactly like I wanted. By the way, it IS NOT his rookie card.

2) Fandruw: Size: After frame they are 36"X 24". (30" x 20" is the actual card). The patience is one of the touoghest obstacles to overcome. After that, it is just see-and-do.

3) Cgilmo: Thank you! By the way - I love the site and all of the members here. Everyone has made me feel very welcomed, and I truly appreciate it.



THANKS AGAIN!

Tim
