Every piece should have it's little surprise. This one got a mirror polished finish on the bottom of the backbone. The pads of the feet also were polished and that's why there are red shoes on the feet in photographs, to protect them from the concrete floor.

After I polished the piece I desecrated it by signing it in that location. I wanted my name on the tree, but in an unobtrusive place. I guess subconsciously I wanted someone to see my signature, since I put it on the "shiny" part.
