F-ing incredible work Tim. I also think the back would be a great companion piece to the front on this project.

Cannot believe how well you captured the slab itself, using just cards. Especially the appearance of the ridges and the part that frames the card. That's some incredible work, Tim...

Someone must've really loved and had confidence in PSA, to want to include the slab in the actual artwork. Came out perfectly... A magnificent presentation!

I actually worked the back a couple years ago as a stand alone advertising piece:

Thank you! The slab was a challenge, but a fun one. I knew that faking out the plexiglass was going to be the key to pulling this off.

Thanks, Peter! It was a mid-00's Upper Deck issue (they had a billion sets during that time). When I first started the piece, I was going to try something lighter. It wasn't going to work; the card border and outer edges of the plexi were going to blend in. Getting the contrast did the trick.

Thank you, Ryan! We had a birthday party for my son last night, so I am just catching up on all posts/comments/messages. I'll be answering shortly.
