over-done and poor design
My personal opinion is that the quality of work is exceptional....but as with anything too much of a good thing can be detrimental. I feel this is the case here. The artwork trying to be expressed is clouded by the hodge-podge flow of the piece overall. The piece is confusing, and poorly laid-out. I am not a master myself, but am no novice by any means. You just know when you like something, and can't explain why. So, although I would never make something like that does not discount the value. I am sure it was fun to make, but,really,who will pay $5000 for that? I wouldn't...even if I had mad flow. Ever heard of the phrase too many cooks spoil the soup? I think each artist was trying to out-do the next and it shows. It is mind blowing to look at, but no flow, just gaudy.

No disrepect...
I hope you did not take my criticism in the wrong way, I have a gallery ( small-but at least I have one) that you can browse and shred me or post any comments or critiques you would like. I do not want you to think I am a "hater" or bashing your art for the sake of being mean. I can take what I dish out, so feel free to look up my stuff and let me know your honest opinions. Again, criticism is what makes artists better and tougher. I have taken a lot of criticism along the way, and I feel my style has migrated towards what the "people" want versus what "I" wanted to make. In the end, we make glass for money, and it seems there is always a market for our stuff no matter how ugly we think it is. There have been so many times when I made some prodo trying a new technique or color combo, and it came out like crap in my opinion. It seems that piece is always the first out of the case because of it's uniquity. So, no disrespect, I just wanted to clarify my thoughts in case they were misread. Keep up the great work!!!Peace.

call 911
I think I had a slight heart attack when i saw that beast. what a monster you four sick bastards really raised the bar on what big is and how many sick details you can cram into one piece. When you do a colab like this with all those heads how do you decide who gets to weld what where? draw straws? No seriously i'll come do your bitch work ripin pull downs and humpin donuts for a week for free if you'll take me to school and help me tighten up. eh
