I've been at this thing for a few weeks now, it's shinny because I sprayed it with water before the pictures, it isn't close to being done. I am happy with it so far, I think it will be a few more weeks before it will be close to done.
It was 240 lbs block of marble at the start. It's still too fat, the belly too big, and the head isn't shaped well but you can see that.
