Now he is a happy elephant! He looks brand new! He looks very heavy, which a proper elephant should be. You have an artists eye, I would not have known where to start.
I really love this. I have a great respect for elephants. It is proven that they feel emotion.

added details with acrylics

You did a great job. I thought he looked alright weathered because that's what an elephant looks like, but you made him look ten times better.

I agree sometimes elephants just need a little TLC and you certainly gave him that.
A very handsome elephant now.
