This guy is still pretty much a blank canvas at this stage - hopefully I can lay down some detail today. I'm thinking Hawaiian... Benella, thanks for keeping tabs and all your compliments...I think this guy is actually meant to be #41. I used that number for the jade mask, but I actually have been numbering the jade pieces separately. Confused? Me too! Benz, it's very unexciting from the back, but here's a pic for you. I just did the bare minimum to make it tidy where the holes came through - which never seem to quite line up on the back like they do on the front! New piece after the 4th pass. Small pieces are fun because I can cut deep and still get in with the tools for the cleanup work.
