    I interpreted it as a satire commentary on the gluttony and greed of some nobles that he was slicing his own belly to be able to eat more.

      This may be super late to the game but, this thought combined with the model showing the idea that there is always a bigger fish, and the pure gluttony is a very interesting idea indeed

      You're not wrong, but the Drolatic Dreams of Pantagruel are most assuredly not medieval.

    It seems I just found my niche -sculptures of little weird medieval creatures- and I love every second of it.
    Btw, I kinda dig the unpainted eyes, the super sculpey being off-white/ pink made the whole thing look kinda dead and rotten for a sec.
