REally nice piece! Your ability to get that much detail is so good.
Grotesque kind of implies something sinister, so green might be cool.
I'm sure you'll paint it perfectly.
I look forward to seeing it in the next stage.

Mark,
Very nice job on carving and great detail. Thor said what I was thinking a green like a grinch green would be cool. I would like to see it when you finish it.
