I had the honor to attend a W.F. Moran Foundation event recently and got to see several great examples of Mr. Morans work including this Monster! When this was pulled out of the case a collective gasp was heard! Sorry about the bad photo!

Here is one i really like. Paul Savage of Canada. Not mine though.
Oh man! That Mike Quesenberry, Ray Laconico, and Kyle Royer are just fantastic examples of each's unique style. That ivory on the Royer is just fantastic.
I'm surprised we haven't seen any of the cutlass' or long fighters by MCS Wood yet.
