See what you've been missing?! king of stones/stone of heaven, etc. Although I guess you dont need to hide behind flashy rocks the way I do; your talent turns even the deadest/dullest of materials into works of genius. Add some nice translucency & a gold stripe into the equation and you've made the world a better place. Yeah, you still got it.. PS: What's a "rubbing stick"..? :wink: :D T :)
