very solid dayne! and the nebari looks good too :D

i agree that moving it to the right in the pot will help signifigantly. i look forward to seeing it when you do some more refinement work !!

Hey Dayne,
It could just be the photos, but I like the "right" as your front as it doesn't look like it it curves back on it self creating more of a leaning towards the viewer illusion.

Just a thought.
