Engraved charging elephants are amateurish and not in my taste.

Very nicely done.

Oh if I could only draw half as good as that, let alone translate that into steel!

It's beautiful. Engraved/Bulino animals are tough to make look good, but that elephant looks great.

Beautiful! I’m curious; how many hours were spent on this fine piece?

I didn't want to leave a snarky comment, but I did not understand the "amateurish" description. My first elephant was charging and, in my mind, looked similar to this engraving.

Don't bother trying to figure it out, you would be wasting your time.

As the French say, "There's no arguing taste or color." While I would not want it, the engraving is a work of very fine art.

RIGHT!
I only wish I had the skill it took to do that job! The engraver surely knows what a big African elephant looks like, unlike some of the so-called engraving found on doubles done in INDIA!

Looks like it's unanimous, except for Shootaway. That means it's unanimous.
