Nice detail going on there Francesco. I'm confused about the wires and where they will go but will watch to find out.Comment

thanks Joe!

Somehow I like the effect but it looks too strong, especially on the head cover, and perhaps a little out of scale, so I'm thinking to fade it a bit. Suggestions?
