Eat 'Em Up, Tigers!

Its been awhile since I've made anything and I am proud to say that I made this little 3D Detroit Tigers Paws card for Amy Deverich's birthday (she loves the Tigers). This little monster took me 8 hours. It was hard because of how small it was. Mostly I was just trying to make something that I was going to love and I accomplished that goal. Matt Benyo was the first one to see it and said it looked vintage which is exactly what I was going for. It's always exciting when someone sees your work and they say what you were trying to do. I asked him to take these photos before I gave it to Amy and when I did, she loved it. The keys are for SIZE COMPARISON because he's smart. I'm also including the sketch that I based everything off of and, as you can see, the finish didn't stray too far from it. Click to enlarge!
