Default Chris Hammack Class Project 2011

Here's the project we worked on in Chris Hammack's Class in 2011, with Christmas orders had to set it to the side, but was able to jump in and finish it this weekend.He will be teaching at the Spring Renegade in Lebanon, just a peek at his work, and he is a very good instructor, you won't be disapointed taking a class with Chris.

That's quite a combination;............Chris Hammack characters done with a Mark Akers touch. Now that's going to be a hard one to beat.......

Great job, Mark. I really like his figures and you did a super job on them! I have signed up for a week long class from him in April and am sure looking forward to it!
