Nice carving John. I really like the teth, they are certainly the key to the whole carving. If it were me (because I'm a little off centre) I would blacken or better still leave a gaping hole where he would be missing one tooth, I think it would really add a lot of character. But that's just me.

Thanks everyone for the look see and the comments. I also can't wait to see him painted. Maybe if the work load in the near future eases up it will can done. Ortel did a great job of setting this one up.
