Not even close. ;)
Still disagree. If it's damaged before you get your hands on it, it's going to come back details no matter what you do to it (unless you're a...

Now I know what it reminds me of! It reminds me of the bridge of my nose, post-crash and post-stitches. :(
It's just markings on the slab. ;)
