That's very cool. I love the way you set up the scene with the bream, crayfish, driftwood and reeds. Excellent!   8)   :OK

Bummer about the hands!  Maybe power carving with a Dremel?  The bigger grip would be a lot easier on your hands, I think.  Not being 21 anymore has a lot to do with it, too.  Trust me, I. Know! >:D
