Super OT: Classical Gas or Who's Yer Dada?

Hey Acey, I read about your friend and like a thunderbolt of an idea conked me over the head, sort of like that a piece of blue ice from a jetliner's toilet. I got up and had a thought, and, after recovering from that novelty, I wonder:

--Does your friend do commissioned work?

Becawse if he do, I'd like him to make me a life size bronze 3D version of one of those Trucker Mud Flap Gurls...I am not kidding, really!

I envision it as a blend of Classical Formalism mixed up (always when I am involved) with some Henry Moore/Mondrian Minimalism crossed with American Populist Culture at it's uh, Finest :)

I'd encourage him to channel Kate Upton as his Muse in order to channel the proper dimensions...my suggestion [leer] would be for him to do a Remington size sculpture first (that I can probably afford) and then he can use that to probably sell a full size one to some rich collector. My guess is he would get a lot of orders for these if he can render her decolletage accurately.

FYI that I already tried to make her on my 3D Printer but the machine had trouble finishing the job; it got very hot, shook violently, then shut down and finally started smoking...so maybe a more old school approach could bring this idea to life. Just call me Pigmalion...
