That's fucking amazing. Obatala is one of my favorite deities (based on translations of the Ifa canon); thanks so much for posting this.
Fitting features, considering this is the patron god of the Disabled among the Yoruba.
Although, having been in the grove before, I know many of the gigantic sculptures depicting various deities have such fantastic features.
