It would have been amazing to see my design in the show, but I honestly love when there are regional differences to creatures. Hellbender vs Axlotl."

- ↑ Ben Carnow on Twitter: "This is all correct. It was important when doing our version of this statue in 76 to maintain the inherent sexiness. Ridiculous abs, lustrous chest hair, powerful ass. Looking at your pic I think I should have made that butt even thicker though. Oh well."
