Very, very well done!! His sneakers are kick ass, great job detailing them. I'm impressed with how nicely you got his jagged head fit into teh background. My first was a Bart, adn I struggled fitting his head into teh grip. GREAT job. How did you do teh black lines?

Billy i cheated LOL i did all the inlay then engraved the areas for the lines . mixed black EVA dust with glue then filled em in then sanded it back (hence the black smudges on the T shirt and right eye) i found it easier to oversize cut the inlay fractionally (cut diaganally into the grip sloping in then cut the inlay from the back diagonally sloping out . when glueing it in roll it with a wallpaper seam roller (those 1.5 inch plastic things) to really compress the inlay into to cutout
