I'm a long time avid skateboarder/artist so I thought I'd combine the two. Here is my sculpt of Jamie Thomas doing a smith grind on a hand rail. Still needs to be cleaned up a bit and painted. Thanks for looking

Years of work. Seriously I was raised by artists, all I did in high school was art (I nearly didn't graduate), I went to art school for 4 years and now I've been sculpting professionally for 5+ years. It's been a lifelong journey and it's still challenging. Thanks for the compliments

Definitely impressive!!! Your attention to detail is amazing! Feel free to post some more of your work, I'm sure a lot of us would enjoy seeing it. What is the largest sculpture you have ever created?

Thanks again guys. The largest thing I've sculpted to date was probably a 3/4 size figure sculpture I did while I was in college. It was so intimidating but man did I learn a lot. I'm seriously considering sculpting Reynolds doing a nollie cab or a f/s flip down a set of stairs. What's insane though is that I might actually be collaborating with Steve Caballero on an upcoming project. I'll keep youz informed!

Wow. Cool to see this thing bumped up. Some insane shiz went down with this thing. To make a long story short, Jamie Thomas got wind of it and he BOUGHT IT at the Johnny Romano Skate Jam Auction down in Texas. Since then the sculpture has been in Transworld Magazine, and on the Fallen website. I also landed an interview with a dude that runs an online skate magazine. The crowning glory was when Steve Caballero contacted me and asked me to sculpt him. Sick. I almost crapped my pants.

I've known a lot of really talented artists that could 'rough' out a beautiful sculpture but they never had the patience to finish something. Here's what it takes - Work, work, work, and more work. Thanks for all the compliments guys. I'm gonna have my sculpt of Stevie Cab done by March. I can't wait for him to get it. Working with Jamie and Steve on these projects has been a dream come true.
