                  Comments: Love how this turned out. Just perfect. 
                    I've been searching for the perfect sculpting material, and 
                    this cement is definitely it. The presence of the different 
                    easily recognizable shapes adds a new dimension to the piece... 
                    Sort of a "Where's Wingnut?" approach. Of course the biomechanical 
                    aspects refer back to my insect sculptures.
