That's a really different and interesting take on Thing's rocky exterior.  Love the eyes (and the huge eye "brows").  If the headshot is this good, just imagine how awesome a full figure Thing would look.

First time to see his art and I'm impressed.

Right there with Matt Allison, vying for the title of most masochistic comic artist!

One of the most unique takes on Ben I've seen. Tyler Bence is on my radar now.

Every piece in Tyler's portfolio was 💯 on point. Congrats!

I guess you got your pick, Chris. Haha All good. I'll take the other one.

I think yours in better in some ways but as a cigar smoker, this one sang to me!

Sensational!!  It must be a shock to run your fingers over the paper and have it -hot- be a craggy, pitted mess of stone...  Unbelievable detail on Ben's rocky hide, sure, but check out that cigar!  And the depth you can peer into Ben's mouth!  Great touches and ncredible artistry on a beloved character (of course).  Congrats on the killer pick up, Chris!

So great!  Bence makes it look like the face is grinding itself into smaller pieces and the friction is causing dust.

Well, this is certainly one of the most unique interpretations of The Thing anyone has ever created!

if you change that  cigar to weed you can calll the piece rocky mountain high.

The line work is just exquisite on this beauty. The contrast of the sharp jagged against the soft organic. The width, the use of line density for tone and volume - just so much to look at and enjoy. Congrats on this add.

The detail really is something to appreciate, and the stogie burns bright!

Instantly recognizable as Bence with all those crazy little details.

I didn't realize Godzilla smoked cigars.

Lights 'em with his breath!

This one rocks hard! Congrats Chris!

Another Thing! - you're rocking it!

Tyler keeps leveling up. The amount of detail in this bust is staggering, especially since he does much of his work with a brush! Congrats!

SUPER nice guy too.

Bence killed it with his head shots!
