Thanks alot everyone! Yep Tommy, yours was the other one Ryan was talking about, I've been meaning to drop you a message to see it, Ryan mentioned you did a bronzed finish and man it looks cool! I could see this piece with so many different finishes, a marbled finish I think would look pretty awesome!Thanks so much Ryan, I'm glad you approve of the paint! Cool to see your work as it evolves eh? 
I love the sign with the piece, I got that from Bull years ago, and have been trying to do something special with it since. The nose holes weren't bad at all, I'm pretty used to carving up resin, and hard materials like that though. First few times I was paranoid I'd destroy the piece, but you'd be surprised how much roughness this stuff can stand up to. Typically, for holes like the nose I'll use a drill bit a couple sizes smaller, and just twist it around by hand, usually does the trick beautifully, if not I go to the dremel Gotta argue with you on one point, you deffinitely earned the praise man, this is a beautiful piece!
