I've seen a fair amount of flatwork done over the years.
I have never seen that quality.
Those guys are real craftsmen.

Good work. Being in the precast concrete industry, I have seen some of the best finishers in the business. Those guys are pretty good. I am the guy who, would draw things up. Although I do look at the finishes, I tend to notice how the pieces actually fit. We do everything from small accent bands and ornamental pieces on buildings. On up to large precast panels on 18-20 story buildings. Although I like the pay day on the larger projects, they create more of a headache. I enjoy the simple things that show off the skill of the designer (myself), erector, and finisher. If it all fits together nicely, and the finishes are nice, then I am happy.
Here is an example of a nice little clock tower that I did years ago in Newport News Virginia. I also did some of the buildings behind it, but the tower was a lot more fun to draw.160528160529
