The question of censurship is entirely up to you ED
you could always link it .
I know the people that put this together and it was a lot of hard work ,I my
self being envolved on the full body casting side of this commision as is my
particular expertise.
Its really quite impressive as the head sculpter Roland Steveson on the team
told me more of a model making enterprise
when seen collectively it really is art and compliments the diversity of the
human form
I personally dont think it would offend any one perhaps put a smile here and
there
so be happy every body
