The legend of why Lord Jagannath’s idol was left incomplete

For many Hindus, Lord Jagannath is the epitome of being complete. With his large eyes he looks over the entire universe, keeping everything and everyone in check.
But one thing many notice is that the idol is incomplete as compared to other idols of Gods found in Indian temples. In Jagannath Puri, the deities only have large, round faces with big eyes, but no defined bodies. Why?
Well, one story says that King Indradyumna asked the divine sculptor Vishwakarma to carve an idol of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Devi Subhadra. Vishwakarma agreed, but said that till the idols are complete, nobody is allowed to see them.
Unfortunately, the Queen grew restless and opened the door where Vishwakarma was sculpting the idols. To their surprise, they saw that he had vanished, leaving behind an incomplete idol with just the face of Lord Jagannath fully completed.
