    Wow, what an effort from Eric Mconrath, not my thing but very very impressive.

    That Eric's ESB is unreal! What he could do with "less is more" - I mean a little more subtle effects. If one has that kind of mad skills, smaller 3D enhancements to personalize a more classic type of a build and only sky is the limit. Can't wait to see the video! Good job!

    It's certainly different.
    I'm just trying to work out what he's made it out of, I'm suspecting he first carved a relief model out of wax using a hot pen, then made the top out of acrylic .... but I'm just wondering how heavy that would make it, maybe too much for the top, so it could actually be something else...guess we shall find out soon enough.

    Looks like that expanding foam stuff you spray into wall cavities that has then been carved as that wouldn't add much weight at all.

    Very intricate, highly detailed, and truly unique.
