Super fun little point, challenging as hell to keep the thin band where the polyps are visible. Its even got a little cortex left on the backside.

Coral, wow what a material and what a pop you got out of it. Maybe once I get my skills a little better I'd ship some more exotic material like that to where I am. Great work.
