Wow, thanks Kenji!
It doesn't get much more enthusiastic than that!
I accidentally dropped a load of worthless change in the street. I was going to just leave it there but a burly policeman lumbered towards me and said, "You'd better pick that up, son."

I enjoyed reading about how you got to the end result - I didn't realise how many drafts (or how much working out) a picture has to go through to become the final version. And I love the final version. I was always a bit disappointed with the image on the cover of 'The Last Rakosh'. In my humble opinion, your design is far better.
Excellent, excellent job, Bones. That rakosh gives off the most menacing vibe of any rakosh illustration I've seen so far. Spoooooooky!

Wow.
I find it hard to believe that you are not already a working
professional illustrator in the graphic novel biz.
Bones, you're not some pro, slumming on the message board
with us common mortals, right?

Wow, that is awesome. Very well done. I like the way you worked it all out for us. That's pretty damn close to what I imagined Rakosh would look like.

Not yet, Mike, but I'm working on it . . .

[/INDENT]Seriously, you should pursue an art career. You're very talented. Your anatomy skills are excellent. I studied fine art, so I know what I speak of!
How do you like your new user title?
