Artist: Stezza (comment) "Each element here speaks Cripeman. The 'Fear Less' Tee shirt describes him perfectly. The batting cage is pure genius... I can picture him taking Carrara with him and now teaching others there. Who knows he may even have version 9 or even 15 by now. :)

I do declare... everyone is a winner. There are elements and a look to all the renders that appeal to me... making it very hard to choose only three. :(

I really liked all of these and think they really spoke to how he has influenced all of you. The one with the dog howling brought tears to my eyes, I could almost feel the lonliness portrayed in this one. I could only pick three but I think you all did a fantastic job on each piece.
Oh... this is the hard part after admiring all the hard work. They are all so unique and interesting in how Cripeman's knowledge was used.
