Niles' all here

On Friday "Nile part two" arrived at the studio. Here Glenn Campbell speaks with the fork lift driver about the weight of the piece. Posted by Picasa

wish I could have been there for the exciting plateform entry of Nile's top half! But I think I would have been bitting my fingernails watching!!

Glad it went well and glad Kate jumped in and took that great video!

Iowa alum here. Your representation of Nile as a student is great. Just wondering if Nile is depicted wearing his letterman's jacket, or street clothes?

Thanks for the response. This will be perfect. I can't wait to see this in Iowa City this fall. It will really be a sight to behold. Thanks for your hard work!

Wow...I am so excited to see the finished product! Thanks for depicting him as a student-athlete. Your work is beautiful and will be cherished by all Hawkeyes. I look forward to the day when I take my child, Kinnick, to see this statue. Thanks for all your efforts! Go Hawks!

I'm thrilled to see the statue of Nile coming along so well and pleased to see him represented as a student-athlete.

If you have a studio, which I am sure you do, where did the two sections of the Kinnick statue arrive from?
