Default More NFL Greats

Here are some of my new projects. I have way too many partial figures on my desk, so I decided to finish as many as I can. Unfortunately my printer quit cooperating and it stopped printing correctly and all of the new decals I have made disolve when I apply the setting solution, and when I was trying to use chin straps and visors I got so frustrated that I was ready to throw it all away and find a larger scale hobby. Fortunately, I found an old set of decals that I made last year and was able to overcome my frustration.

As for the players:

Most of these are obvious, but A few could use a comment.

I didn't realize what a grip Steve Young had until I posted the image on here.

I have liked "The Juice" since I was a kid, and in spite of his personal life, he was one of the best running backs ever. This was the first figure that I was able to make the sleeve decals work. I don't think I could have painted those stripes small enough.

I know Matt Ryan isnt a "great" yet, but I think he will be if he stays healthy. He is the first player I have been excited about in several years.

Normally, I make a pose and then find a player that it looks like, but on the Barry Sanders I found the image and made the pose follow it. I am pleased with the result.

Great work again. The Barry Sanders figure is particularly sweet.

100% agree with K-Lo.

I love the Falcons uni, perhaps the best i have seen thus far.

How long does it take you to complete a figure - start to finish?
