Very nice model, great character & shadeing. The plain gray shadows on the back wall is a good contrast to the chrome. However, I think that the shadow of the hands seem to meld into the reflection on the characters abdomen which causes a little confussion. I do like the shape of the shadow though, it looks like some ice tonges (remember them?) going to snatch him up.

I plan on using him in some detailed scenes later on. I see what your saying about his hands melding, a little more work should fix it, thanks. What Ice tonges??????

Yes I did it all in our favorite little ware Carrara, I even had a successful boolean subtraction, when making his mouth. I love Carrara despite all the problems, what it does, it does wonderfully.
