    Great work Fred - that looks really good. I'm not normally an SG kinda guy, but that body is very cool. Nothing like a bit of body modding!

    Nice curves, man. A bold decision but definitely the right one, and well implemented. May the rest of the build go as well.

    Nice reshaping Fred, gutsy but justified by the result. Great Job!
