Then he sent me a couple of pics back showing it in its current form. So I thought you chaps might like to see. B29 - 1.jpg B29 - 2.jpg ...

Re: Limited Edition Art Prints For Sale

Great artworks Steve! Nice reflections. Lots of work in many of those i.e.: detail in the grills!
What's the medium of the original and would you be interested in adding some of my prints to your shop?

Ps just saw they are oil on canvas! Even more impressed now as that's a hard medium.

Thanks for the plug superford. Id better clarify 'bought' tho. I'm not selling dvd's, just asking for a 'donation' per disk for my time to copy the DVD and the materials. 27 disks takes a few evenings!!! :D
