I hope nobody minds, but I figured that I would start a thread for whatever's going on in my studio. Well, anything that I think is worthy of posting, that is.

I figure that if everyone's cool with it, I can show some finished pieces here, as it's taking a while for me to get my website fully updated. Additionally, I can show some in-progress shots of other things, be they commissions or for my inventory. Just know that the quality of the photos I take myself aren't even close to that of the ones I have done professionally!

Speaking of whom, I just picked these up from those photographers:

Babe Ruth, 1927, 9"x12"

http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...5_Portrait.jpg
Joe DiMaggio, 1933 (I think), 9"x12"

http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b1...ait_Conlon.jpg
Lou Gehrig, 1936, 16"x20"

The Ruth portrait is already spoken for by a fellow board member, but if anyone is interested in the other two, feel free to drop me a line.

And as usual, comments/critiques/rotten tomatoes are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Graig

PS: Oh, and special thanks to Jimmy for allowing me to use some of his images for these bad boys!

Mark, I'll get a progress shot of the '27 team shot up here soon. It's still coming along super slowly, but as long as it's moving forward, I'm not gonna complain.

Hank, I didn't know you had spoken to Dean. I hope it's not a bad thing!

Here's another I got back from the photographers today:

Rube Waddell, 1902, 26" x 30"

It appears a tiny bit dark in this shot, as I'm still in the progress of making the necessary color corrections. But, the feeling is there.

Anywho, I had always thought it was a really cool image, and as I'm sure you guys know, finding action shots of Rube from any time period is not easy feat. Once I saw this one, I couldn't resist. And the fact that he's warming up at the Huntington Ave Grounds in Boston adds a really awesome flavor to it, in my opinion.

Hope y'all dig it!
