If you want the model to represent the reality of your glass elelphant, then of course
my
observations are invalid.

Not knowing, however, that you were modelling from 'life' I felt that the eyes would
be
better a different colour, with the the tusks longer and a different colour (ivory?)
BTW is the fiery exhalation also from life? :-)

I thought your idea and modelling of a glass elephant was very appealing. The fire
squirting out of the trunk gives it a surreal appeal and converts it into some sort of
mythical beast, that might be even better with exaggerated appendages.

Hmm ... although coming from a different perspective, Ganesh, the hindu god which is
half
man, half elephant might be interesting to model :-)
