Cut junk era commons = most iconic cards ever

[Peter_Spaeth]

Are you now using a different technique, particularly on the faces? I'm not seeing (I don't think) all the little faces that make up the face on some of your previous work including this Ruth.

Thank you all!

Hi Peter...

Still using the same technique, but I think what you are seeing is that a couple of recent pieces were made using commons that featured larger faces (portraits). The whites of the eyes on those commons were larger than what I typically use, and it was somewhat distracting when they were put in place. I eliminated those distractions by cutting them or covering them with other pieces.

Wow, Tim, that Pele is insane! How big is it? The individual letters cut out for the "Topps Certified Autograph" line are nuts.

This does not seem possible, just incredible work! Congrats on your great skill. Love to know if any of these go to auction.
