Hehe....love the face and fingers. How big is he? I think this would really work well 5' tall and rusted in a garden.

Hi Peter,
Thanks.Tin Man is 20 inches tall.At five feet, it sure would be easy to add lots of interesting detail.

Hi Frank,

I really like your Tin Man - he looks so happy! Also, that's a great story behind the piece.

Hi Peggy,
Thanks.The story behind this sculpture was quite motivating.
I sure wish I had your skills and talent when making the heart. Its just a plain old copper thing glued on. I can only imagine what you would have created.

Can anyone tell me how to make this same figure but it be a woman instead? I need to know how to make the dress part.

Hi Jamie,
Thank you.Tin Man was donated to the Alger County Historical Society and presented,last year at the annual dinner, to a charter member who successfully received a heart transplant. That person brought it to the annual dinner this year. I am very honored.
