I like the one with Rickamaven's face on it better. I'm sure if we ask Slimboli really nicely, he'll pull that one out of the Cbid archives for us.......

Crystal,

Rick will let us know.

I know a guy in Korea that does this too. He's really good. He'll make a casting of your face, arms, etc, and then put it in brass or copper. It's really cool. I have a literal "breastplate" on my wall at home of a friend of mine's upper torso. It's from her lower abdomen (just above the mons veneris) to the bottom of the neck. It's gorgeous...and perfect.

Sculpting is a pastime of mine that I have fallen out of and would love to get back into... this is an awesome reminder of how great sculpting is!

i think it's kosher to give their web site since they do not sell anything cbid has.
