These have some nice boxes and so forth, but there are a lot of undifferentiated blobs as well. That didn't thrill me, and I explained why. It was a minor issue with an otherwise good product, and I described it as such. If you're looking for completely uncritical reviews then I submit that you may be in the wrong place.

If you want detail then check out Armorcast's new trash bag pile, there are bannana peels, trash bags and boxes.

I did the trash in and identifiable/unidentifiable was because quite honestly there is a lot of nondescript 'stuff' in dumpsters. Wadded up bags, packing material, piles of food, old cloths etc.... I've done a lot of dumpster diving in my day. Stores like Rite Aid, Longs, hardware and appliance stores have real good dumpsters. There is a lot of very good stuff in those things! Expensive appliances, boom boxes, jewelry, good grades of wood if you can find a furniture shop. I don't do the stinky restaurant ones. Hi. Glad you liked the stuff I sculpted.

I have a bunch of stuff from Armorcast and I've been very impressed with their work. A minor caveat: they changed ownership some years ago after I bought all my stuff. I've heard no bad things about the new owners, and they've continued all the existing product lines, but it does bear mentioning. Glad you enjoyed it, Mikko.

The trash looks excellent, despite the lack of detail. Looks like something you don't want to touch, which captures the essential dumpster look.
