I've never seen those horns but I like the drawing and look forward to seeing the finished sculpture. I wish I had the money to buy some of your work :cry: someday though I will.

Very nice Bob, but looks like the York has put on weight. Stretching as below makes more realistic, but as an impressionistic view your original looks fine to me. Would not mind my coat hanging from that!

Thanks Neptune... a couple of people said it looked fine so I started making it Bummer I guess I'm going to cut and add more rod which means recutting my bronze letters to hold the tuba.... I still havent decided what music to put up above the CSO any suggestion so far the "Ride" and "American in Paris"how about the sound of BigBen?? Thanks for the imput and I hope you and Mei are doing fine your friend in music and tubas..............................BB
