shep 218 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Steve just sent some pics of the slabs he's cut. He seemed pretty excited and said the pics don't do justice. More later as he progresses. Have a happy face here! ;-) 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Swampstomper Al 1,336 Posted December 31, 2015 Share Posted December 31, 2015 Superior craftsmanship, ElD -- they look great..!I guess I've just been too long without sleep though, cos the top left looks like someonetrying to capture an escaping nug by wrangling it with Young Tom's GB II mini, lol..

Swampstomper Al 1,336 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Al, we both must need some sleep, I don't see what you're seeing but I do see a 3 legged gold tree frog in the biggest cab. All four legs are there, Skip.. The right front is straight on though,so merely gives the impression it's missing..Another one: Lower left cab looks like a photo of an 'earth' taken from orbit..The America's are there.. NA is missing some of the east coast, notably part of TX,MS, AL & FL causing the land mass creating the Gulf of Mexico to be incomplete.. SAhas the Pacific Coast lookin' good but it's missing some Atlantic side too.. Australia, NZand the Phillipines have shifted west, and the Atlantic coast of Europe and Africa arein place.. And no, I don't do drugs, except when absolutely mandatory or necessary.. Way to capture inner personalities, ElD.. Swamp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Swampstomper Al 1,336 Posted January 1, 2016 Share Posted January 1, 2016 "More, more..!," they clamored..!!Wellll, ok..The top right cab looks like a C-3PO-type 'droid calmly striding away after "blowing its top",i.e. launching its head into an air shaft on an orbiting military command post platform in orderto take it out of the game..And the one beneath it shows BD kneeling while holding a dental tool so he can pick a nuggie out ofbedrock, but first turning his head to shout at adam to stop cracking him up so he won't scratch itwhile digging..Either that or it's Bill the Cat hacking up a golden hairball (ewwwwww).. Hmmmmm.. Nuh-uh,nope.. Think I'll stick with the former on this 'un.. Swamp Quote Link to post Share on other sites
