Awesome! I'd also like to make a mythological correction: one tusk was mostly broken off, so (the left I think?) should be cracked off halfway or so. Also, he should have a snake/serpent tied around his waist, cuz' legend has it that his belly bursts and he ties it back together with a snake ;q Also, your shading is beautiful. Tee!

Oh I wish I could recall the story of Ganesha. Was it a story about an adversary who cut off the head of a god and goddess's child and they replaced it with the head of a baby elephant? It was a sad story. Very nice.
