I'm going to be spending my rainy weekend on a '33 Ruth, but I put the finishing touches on this one first. Approximately 28"x18".

These are always awesome. How long do these typically take?

Hi Nate...
I once had the exact amount of time and the exact number of cards used for each piece. Once I started working several pieces at once, I stopped tracking those stats. When I was tracking, the average time was around 40-45 hours. This Mantle took a little longer than that.

Thank you all for the kind words!

Really appreciate it, Graig. Working on that Dan Dee Mantle gave me the itch to complete some of the unfinished Mantles I have had going for awhile. Hopefully I can get enough pieces done by next fall to make some sort of show a reality!

Thanks again to everyone!

Awesome work Tim. Was this commissioned or is this one for sale?

Thank you! This was not a commission, just something I have been working on a little bit at a time over the past year. It is available. If interested, please shoot me an inbox or email (timcarrollart@yahoo.com).
