My work basically is a reflection of my wacky personality, presented in any form I can find! I am a self taught artist, from sketches right on down to the big 3D. My first love of comics, cartoons and anime have heavily influenced me. The Artists who have influenced me most include the likes of Tex Avery, Mike Mignola, Travis Charest, Bruce Timm, Mario Ucci, and Barry Windsor-Smith to name a few.

Well damn! The master of ogranics is at it again. Can't wait to see it when you are finished!

Thanks. I don't know about the master stuff but it's nice to be modeling again after everything that's gone on in my city.

cool organic modeling but the rear claws on the back feet look wrong. they look like they've just been stuck on as an afterthought. I would enlarge them a litle and move them back, and angle them more towards the rear and downward.
Teyon
The toes could be a bit larger, you're right about that but the angle and location are fine. You see, I plan to bring the model into Poser when I'm done and it's easier to place the bones in them if they stick out like that. AFter the bones are in place, I can make the toes look more relaxed. Thanks for posting!
