I really like the thought that Peter just gets on a motorcycle and rides directionless. We need a series of Peter's Journey on the bike.
It could be written by JMS.

Bought two of his novels for my iPad. Love Peter David's work, so I am sure these will be good.

I am counting down to the final book, and will be starting it on the 8th as soon as I get my hands on it.
Sanderson has done an excellent job wrapping up the series. He really moved things along, which was great since the last few books that Jordan did were really dragging. He was only supposed to do one book, but there was no way to finish up all the story in one book with where Jordan had left it. His work on the Wheel of Time made me read his other books, which I would highly recommend.

Yeah, RR is a kit. I'll see if I can dig up a painted pic of one and PM you.

Placed my order for him a few weeks ago. Need to have my Rocket Raccoon piece painted up to go with him.

 DO NOT START. I, on the other hand might be interested in starting. They have a Strong Guy bust from Bowen but a Larry Stroman inspired full Strong Guy would be wicked cool. I know a guy that has a FS Strong Guy on his list to have made, but it will be awhile. He's working on finishing up the X-Force, Starjammers, and Suicide Squad MB sets first.

Thanks. I found my green stuff so hopefully I can get her fixed up better than new. I'm thinking of repainting the whole statue since I'll most likely end up doing all of the flesh to match up the color to the newly painted hand. I was done collecting statues, too, until the All-too-nice Brian N. sent me the Banshee for the X-Mas Exchange.  Now I feel compelled to find a matching Kitty Pryde like yours. There's also a Thunderbird bust.I would have sent you Kitty, butnInsold her in October, same with Thunderbird. I have FS versions of all of them now. I actually thought I had sold Banshee, but found him when I was looking through the closet.

The Fire and Ice pieces are unlicesed kits I had painted up. I love statues and a good bit of my collection is garage kits, often times sculpted by the same guys that do work for Bowen.
The guy that produced those has a few left if you're interested and I can hook you up with several good painters that are reasonable. Let me know.
Looker is a one of a kind conversion of the Moore She-Dragon statue. I plan on having the whole main Outsiders team done at some point.
Kits and conversions take the statue hobby to a whole new level. I have a lot of characters in my collection that others don't and the big companies will never produce.

Congrats on coming out all the way. It's a liberating experience, and hopefully you won't take any crap for it, and if you do it will be in the minority. And hey, if your current market goes down some, there is a whole other market you can target with a lot of disposable income.
As a gay guy I know exactly what you are going through. I've been out and in a monogamous relationship for a long time, but you always have that fear of how people are going to react when they find out. That fear does lessen over the years though and mostly becomes no big deal. I am always a little leery coming out on a forum of comic fanboys though, but after I feel comfortable I will casually mention it and it's usually not a big deal at all. This forum has been great about it and there are a few gay/bi guys on here.
And, I also want to say thanks for coming out as a bisexual in an opposite sex relationship. That takes courage because you can blend in more with what society considers the norm.
Now, I wish I had known you were a bi artist a few weeks ago, before you sent my Christmas package. I would have asked for a pin-up style X-Guy or something!
