Hi Emile,
You have been quite lately, now I know why. You have been planishing breasts.

Super nice work!!!!

Default Very Inspired Toros's
Emile, love your work. A perfect example of the right shape not requiring any special patinas or paint to be beautiful. The rear view torso really captures the beauty of shape, IMHO. They're all very pretty! Did you make flexible shape patterns for this project? If so pictures of that process should be included! Thanks for sharing your beautiful work.

Okay Emile, why do they call you the spy????? Where do you get your inspiration for your work? I'm with Brian, I'd like to see the pics of the flexible shape patterns, right from the beginning, please. Nice stuff. I'll bet the stainless one was a real ***** to get done. John V.O.
