Lowering the Pipe, 8" x 8", oil on wood

I think done. Definitely like seeing the painted acrylic coming through. 

This was a little "knitpicky" because of the subject, but no cramps in the hand or anything.

I took the man out...and please notice the huge counterbalance on the right side so when the machine is lowering the pipe, they won't tip over.

Thanks for looking!
