So this is only my second art piece. I felt better about it before shelfcleaner really show us all up (it's amazing), but I put a lot of work into this and want to say thank you to Waylen, keys1980, and Mitzy for all their help and inspiration. I had the opportunity to go to Italy last summer and my wife and and saw a lot of fabulous art and architecture and Botticelli's Birth of Venus is a masterpiece. I had the idea of recreating it and then I found the simpsonized version of it. So here is the original Botticelli: Here is the Simpsonsized version from which I worked: I had wanted to include the ribbon and Lenny and Carl, but due to time constraints and without having to take screenshots, tear down, and work in stages due to the item limit, I had to recreate her left hand. So, here is my masterpiece: Full Size

brettolmsted I am totally jealous of you right now. This is one that I have considered taking on for sometime since it was one of my original avatars, but I kind of gave up with all the caps.

A work of art all in itself. I'm sure Botticelli is smiling down on it right now.

Wow You have done AMAZING job there, very impressive. how long did it take to do project like that start to finish? after I got the idea and "graphed it out" I believe it took me about 4 days, about 3 hours each day, so probably a total of about 12-15 hours total. That does not include the tear down I had to do of a board game I had there previously which took a more than a few hours. I only worked on it at night after my wife went bed for a few hours.

Stunning work! I need to start a second town so I can experiment with art, though I don't think I will obtain the mastery needed for this kind of work
