Very cool, very cute. I've never made a blowfish before, so my ability to provide valuable critique is lessened. I would suggest that the bowl needs more definition. Look at the profile. I think you could take some meat off at the top of the shank next to the bowl.

Lovely grain. I've always liked blowfish.
