| He was a good man, multi-talented, and set the standard high for the rest of us. I learned a lot from him here on the VA and will miss his insights. |

| From the intricacies of detail, looks as though it takes a lot of patience & concentration. Really have to stay focused as to not stray from the penciled outlines when tracing over it with a pen. Simple geometric shapes & even modeling is one thing, but this level of detailing really goes to another level! |
