Thank You Dude. I love you're swirl work and hope to get one from you one day.

Yep its the same Waltham that toured with 3 Doors Down. I wasn't on that tour. =(
I jumped on last summer to play with them. Working on some new songs at the moment.
The guys loved Europe and want to go back play more shows out there.

Did you see them play?

UPdate for you all, got an e-mail round saying the swirls being done at the moment are his last and he will no longer in the buisness.
I dont come on here often anymore so in response to Passion_and_Warfareś comment about an 18month wait. Fair enough but if you asked a top artist to do a painting for you of something youve always wanted, trust me you dont care too much how long it takes.

Ive also heard the same, that Herc will no longer be doing custom work.

Ya I got the same email, Thats too bad because he is good at what he does. If hes burnt out I would suggest getting an apprentice instead of quitting. Im not an artist so I dont know if thats a viable option, but if doing that kind of work is your dream and you love doing it then I would want to find a way to make it work. On a brighter note Jess said I should have some pics of my swirl either Friday or Saturday. I cant wait!!! Once I approve it I will post pics.

Wow.
I dont have a Fede swirl.............but I respect his work just the same. Sad to see him go. I wonder what IbanezKing (Cottam) is gonna do?

Wow! I cant believe it, shocking news. No one can argue with the quality of the his work, i think some of his swirls are among the best Ive ever seen, tic tacs is right up there, darren may have been the original but? Anyone now what hes going to be doing?

It's probably not my place to say this so appologies to everyone that might get upset, but I guss that the 150$ swirls made him realize that he can't count on swirling to support his new born child any more.

I dont know about that, every time one of his swirls come up on the auction site it sells at $375-$450 depending on the swirl. I also have seen how many people he has waiting. I think hes just getting burnt out

Thats what I see. I can see him taking a nice long break after all his orders are done but I don't see him stopping from future orders I think he needs to be wise about it in the future and set limits as to what realistically he can handle.
