I cant 100% identify with what you are saying Jim. My other half Glen English had similar problems when Joey died. He had already finished the originals of a pewter, and a bronze sculpture of Joey when he was killed. They took him months of hard work to complete, and were supposed to pay our mortgage for the next 6 months or so. Consequently they were mothballed for over a year and only went into production when Joey's widow gave her blessing. Glen could not even consider putting them on sale without her blessing, and he still got flack despite Lynda being given the pewter no.3 and the bronze no.3 being auctioned for charity. You'r going to win in this situation Jim.
