For the life of me I can't see why anyone would dis her even a little bit. But to crit her! All I can think is "I'd love to see what the dissenter has created that would even give him the chops to go there!". It's just too easy to crit I guess. Those that do...do... and those who can't... crit. It's an ode to a wild bit of history and Shoe you did get it right. She oozes of British Cafe nobility! Your choices of color, stance and graphics are both top shelf and pip pip and all that rot! I would have her in the barn quicker than you can say "Bob's your uncle!". Yes I would enjoy some more glamor shots of her and she should have a "page". Damn fine work Shoe!
BTW: The pic of you standing next to her in helmet and goggs somehow makes you look like Drew Carey. But not a fat dorky one like the real one is! Just thought I'd share the observation. AND oh year a great project thread also!!!
