Christopher,
I really dig this latest offering-- I agree with Bryce once again in his analysis--
you have a subtle mastery of form and function. I dig the head (always difficult)
and I like the hips and legs. I'm curious as to what's going on inside thos
shoulder joints. I am also sorry that you have decided to discontinue this scale,
since I think you still ave a lot to offer to it, but then, I can't wait to see
what you will come up with at larger sizes! Good luck!
Then again, I think you may find (as I have since I decided to make some larger
things) that it will serve as a kind of palette-cleanser to do something small and
easy (relatively) while you complete larger works. Time will tell....
