Damn. I think rek and I alone generated more votes then sig wars usually does.xD
Anyway, I didn't want to say anything before since, you know, giving pointers during a battle seems a little arrogant but since we're all talking about it openly I'll drop my 2cents. I think if you had rendered it the way Shamori did around the neck and then clone stamped the hair away you could have replaced the head in an inanimate object. Like a light bulb or something, would have looked sick with your retro theme. But then again that much clone stamping is alot of work and you're lazier then me!
