    wow! i would like to see the back of the leg, which seems to be incomplete. and I wonder if the back is supposed to be just linework with it not being filled in, or if it will be filled in eventually.

    Thanks, everyone.

    Mr. Mister is correct. The back of the leg is still very incomplete. Just part of the linework is done so far.

    Very interesting article. Couldn’t be written any better. Browsing this post reminds me of my old chum. He always kept talking about this. I will send this post to him. Pretty sure he will have a good chuckle. Thanks for sharing! :)
