The LLOM's have arrived in the Dallas area now and not only did I get to unpack them all for my dealer (they paged me to ask me if I wanted to do it), but they gave me first dibs as well.
I bought Portland Head and Old Mackinac! Tremendous details on these two pieces in particular.
Alcatraz is virtually a miniature clone of the GLOW. I can't believe they actually painted in the prison rooms on the backside of the building just like in the full size HL!
Heceta Head has a beautiful group of about 5 or so trees sitting on a ledge in the back which you can't really see well from the photo's. Everyone who was with me had an average level of excitement until they saw this cluster of trees on the back and then they went nuts over the piece!
Their effect almost seems to transport you to the real lighthouse!
Another interesting note is that the photo on the cover of the box for Nauset is an inverted or reversed image of the piece (OOps!)
When you take the piece out of the box, the photo is a mirror image of the sculpture. Someone please let me know if I am wrong so I can make an "eye appointment.
All of the boxes included a nice gift card inside as well as a LLOM "wish list" you can pass on to your friends.
There were many more great pieces but I'll leave those for comments from others.
Gotta start saving my lunch money again!
