I saw it coming but I just got the scale wrong by the time I got to the bottom. I liked the position of the head, but should have just made it all an inch smaller and there would have been both hands. I think, perhaps not so subliminally, I was happy that it all stopped at the wrists. Less fingers, more time for other details.
