Here's update three. (Two on original message).

Thanks! 

It's up in the front yard now...I had to hurry up and get it out of the kitchen for Christmas so it has a few weaknesses for sure...(like no hand holding up the trumpet! I have even moooooore respect for Michaelangelonow...painting BIG is a hard thing to do well. Maybe God painted the Cistein(sp) chapel himself?

I'll try and get a post of the finished piece up...

Merry Christmas and Happy Hannuka to everyone!
