Nadia Nada Nyetski So is that a Russian chick? Ill paint a Russian chick! Hey Boots, thanks a bunch my man! Excellent finish there Gary - Pierre is perfecto Luvverly job..... Andy - to learn the secret you must look beneath the KILTUTU of wisdom........ (Take my advice....too much knowledge is a dangerous thing ) Just a warning Andy....those who have takin the look beneath the Kiltutu of power to learn the secret have also lost an eye in the proccess. A dangerous, viscous, and quite venomous creature lurks beneath the Kiltutu.......wear eye protection! Many thanks brother Nemo, appreciate it! Gary
