I do appreciate your kind words.
These were painted for Dewayne Jennings, so I can't sell any of them.
I did actually paint war games figures and I posted some in the non football part of the forum a while back.
As for layway, I am not against it, but I can't take on any projects for awhile. Unfortunately, I go back to school in a week, so my production for others will be halted until summer break.
I am hoping to get enough of these figures of my own to do a team for myself, and that will be my project in the coming months. I just can't make up my mind which team I want to do the most. I am leaning toward the 1977 Cowboys, with my second option being the 1985 Bears in the Super Bowl uniforms.
I was still content to make teams for myself out of customized Haiti repros, but after seeing a whole team out of these figures I am now a bit spoiled, then I have to get a custom board, Geono's passers and kickers and then.....you all know the progression. My wife will kill me.
You all are right that the hobby continues to evolve, but it is so much fun seeing where it is going.
Thanks again.
