TikiTacky .... Thanks for your comments ... It is nice to hear calm sensitive voices who are actually trying to help .... I'm sorry that my communication skills seem to fail me at times .... What I post are not meant to be variations of an image, but steps gone through to reach a final look, much as you suggest. Originally I described each step as I passed through them. I thought that I was repeating myself too much and started doing a shorthand version of the process at the beginning of the series. The last image is usually the one I think is best. Perhaps I have a faulty eye and I am wrong much of the time. Me using the same sculpt throughout several process demos is really what you are talking about of having several examples to chose from. I know none of my work is fine art and some of the in-process images can be viewed as bad art, but that is my whole point of what I'm doing. I don't think it is any different from what other folks do here to show how they create what they do. I don't mean to be saying, "Hey, look at my cool art. Isn't it great." I am aware of my ability and limitations. My goal from the beginning was always to demonstrate a couple of Ipad apps that I thought were nice in hopes I could encourage others to give them a try and come back and show some cool stuff they did that was sure to be far better than mine.

I visited your t-shirt shop. I would hope you have great success with the shop. Your shirts sure fit into modern pop tiki culture. You capture a real appealing vintage look. I always like fun designs like that .....

Thanks again ..... Gene
