First of all, I just wanted to tell you I love your work, I know some don't like ti but your Hellblazer was on of my favorite pieces.

On to a question:

If you were offered, would you go back and sculpt more of the Sandman characters or maybe even a Swamp Thing?

Last question:

What is the one character you would like to sculpt the most but were never offered an opportunity to do so?

Because you asked so nicely I will show a couple small pix for now. This particular copy is not mine and I didn't get a chance to shoot pix the way I would like. I'm a bit of a Felix Unger on certain things- my way or the Long Island Expressway, but I digress. Once I get my copy(soon hopefully) I will do a photo shoot and post the pix in a new thread.

But for now, here is the bronze(real bronze, no faux) DK-

I would like to do Wrightson Swamp Thing someday, or even a Steve Bissette version minus the flowers.

There are a lot of characters I have never had the opportunity to sculpt the way I would like to. Not to say that I have been given poor designs to work from, quite the contrary...I have been given some amazing stuff. But nothing is ever the way an artist really wants unless he is given complete freedom. That's why I sculpted this Dark Knight as you see it. It's simple, not fussy, no dramatic pose but it portrays everything that I personally find appealing about the character- strength and nobility.

I'm beginning to sound like a broken record here, but as always beautiful work!
