Thanks Gil.  The Vakama mask is what got me started on using orange...and
the venty shapes on the nose/mouth area of the mask make for realistic
looking vents on the vessel.  Earl was just a toss-in that I felt completed
the design.

PS.  Where does the name come from?

The Gourami are kissing fish - y'know, the ones that fight by grabbing the
jaws of another gourami and pushing/pulling til one yields.  I liked the
name and the shape of the vessel is similar in proportion to the kissing
fish, so I used it.
