Description
OK - long story short.


Tim did a great sketch for me, which FedEx left in the rain. Tim, being the awesome guy that he is, offered to do a replacement sketch for me.


Now, how frakkin' cool is this? I asked for JJJ because I wanted something that Tim knew would be just for me - not something to be flipped a month from now. (I'd hate for him to think I was taking advantage of his generosity.) Tim knocked this one out of the park.


Spidey in the window was a nice touch – but my favorite easter egg is the newspaper clipping on the wall referencing the original piece he did for me.


Priceless.

Congrats, that is a very nice piece, and so many elements to love it for, but my favorite is the little newspaper article as well. Little things like that are why Timmy's commissions are amongst the best in the industry.

I love the story behind this even though I cringe at the thought of one of Tim's commissions being left in the rain. Tim did an amazing job with this one.

This may be one of the best commissions Ive seen so far!  Love the headline "Fedex Ruins Priceless Artwork".
