I had just come home from a small trip to the store and Deb came to me, bouncing all over the place with excitement.
"Mels done painting the mask!! You have to see it!!!" She announced with giddy delight.
After I dropped the groceries carelessly to the floor, I wind-sprinted to the computer and sat, giggling to myself along with Deb.
The Lair was quite active as I opened the Trophy Room link and began to scroll down to page three of the Ancient One Elder mask thread. I was sure others were just as excited to see the progress of the paint job. The anticipation grew as I passed the mouth paint pictures, the teeth, and then the dremelled tusks.
And there it was...the most beautiful, awesome, paint job I've ever seen on anything of my own creation. Mel had truly given my Elder life and spirit.
I sat silent for a several long seconds and just stared at the pictures. That was all I could do. I could not utter a word. There was no mistake that this was a work of art in the finest sense.
And as I openly wept, I thought to myself, "She'd better ***kin' sign it!!
Wonderful job, Mel!!!
