After breaking Frank's tongue, I had to create a new one. LOL

Had some moss in a brown/red color and got it finally to fit today.

Sorry Frank, in order to fit your tongue, I had to remove your upper dentures.  roar  But at least you should have a pretty good taste from now on.  saved2



So, now I gotta glue them together, let it cure overnight and then re-cut tomorrow in order to stay on schedule for setting on Tuesday.

I suppose, only after setting, the connection to Hard Rock will become apparent.

Started this project a while back to work off frustrations with the YingYang project and finished up over the past few days.



The rough reminded me a bit of a smile and I tried to keep that feature, but the final shape came more by accident than on intend.



Now it reminds me a little of the Chestershire Cat in Alice in Wonderland. LOL



Thanks for looking, next up the final "HardRock Frank" in a few days.

So here you go, Frank hope you are on a diet and don't sneeze too much.  saved2 saved8
