How did you delete the skull and legs?

Are you sure you didn't just hide them? Try pressing ctrl + shift and clicking in the background.

Glad I could help.

MAN! That is some serious overpricing. I thought you had Amazon in Australia, but a quick search says otherwise.

I'm sure a local bookstore might have, or can order it in for you.

I'm not sure if you can get it in Ebook format to be honest.

I will need this to offset my model...if I can get him done...I am really out of depth here big time.
