and more detailing . . .

I've entered the second most tedious part of this process; all the main forms are defined, but they need lots of refinement. Of course, the most tedious part is the sanding! I should be ready for that process in a week or so, maybe less if I can make it happen. On Thursday, I'm due to receive a shipment of a stone I've not worked with before - translucent orange alabaster from Utah. I'll try to post a photo of a chunk when I have it in my clutches. Above is a pic of the status of both sides of the current stone as of yesterday. Remember to click the photo to enlarge it.
