Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

These are by far my two most favorite pieces by Ray!! The detail on them is crazy insane and are easily the best GR pieces ever done...

Right Now I have only room to display 9 full size statues and these two occupy center stage along with the GR LSB in the middle..

Total Home Run for Ray!!!!

I own the original and it's a statue my eyes seek everytime I hit my office/hobby room. GR is really one of the most interesting looking characters out there and this statue just nails it. I am so glad I have this statue. Thank-you for sculpting him. He couldn't be any better.
(kick myself for not also buying the Western version)

I've been wanting to get that Ghost Rider statue for awhile now. It just hasn't worked out for me yet.

Just like with some of your other sculpts, they're the best versions of the characters out there. One day that Ghost Rider with be mine.

I love working with hard carving wax (TMS wax). I have recently switched over to Gary Willows "Max" wax for the roughing in stage then use the hard TMS carving wax for finishing.
