Hey everyone,
Spring is alllmmooossstt here in New York, so I'm happy to see the weather warming and the ice melting. And that's even if my car is covered in salt. Anywho, some of you had written me and asked about the progress of the 1927 Yankees team painting I've been working on. It's still not there, and it's definitely taking some serious time. But over the past few weeks, I've been dedicating an hour or more to it everyday in the hopes that I can start making some headway. I'm happy to say that almost everything is blocked in, which in itself is the most time-consuming part of it. There are a couple of faces that still need a lot of work, but overall, the majority of them are getting close to the finish line. And those pinstripes...ooohhh, those pinstripes. Trying to paint 30 different pinstriped jerseys convincingly - having them undulate in space and all - has been a real exercise in patience (and madness). Also, the straight lines of the stands, seats and rails...my brain hurts just thinking about it. But regardless of what's kicking my @$$, I thought I'd post some progress shots of the thing.     Gehrig is probably the figure closest to completion, but even he's not there yet. But it should give you an idea of what the other 30 guys will look like when they're complete. The photos were taken with my iPhone, so they're not super sharp. And since the piece is so large, the lighting from the windows has been wreaking a bit of havoc on the right side of the piece (hence the glare). As per usual, comments, thoughts, and critiques are ALWAYS appreciated. Thanks, Graig

Andrew took the word right out of my mouth. I was going to type it a few more times for emphasis though

I believe this is one of your most ambitious works to date, an entire team of very recognizable faces. If not, please share your thoughts.
As always it is astonishing, even in the raw... Last edited by pariah1107; 03-12-2014 at 03:07 PM.
