I have to be honest that the Corinthian never 'got' me for creepiness, interesting character, vile in his own way. But like jason and freddy I've just never felt particularly scared of things packaged as human beings.

This however is quite a lovely piece all the same :)

thanks!
I can dig it- the more amorphic ones have an alien scariness that is difficult to relate to...

I rarely feel like I have trouble relating, but whether this is because I lack the ability to relate to people in general or because I'm very good at relating to everything is one I've never determined.

The amorphous pieces you do are often quite beautiful because they are laid out with the same care and elegance you put to a dove, or a rabbit or a figure piece.

Creepy good job!
I don't know of this character, but I picture him with a mouth full of eyeballs.
I should really start experimenting with frames. They really finish the peice.

Ah a good character, not my favorite for design but maybe I'm just not quite the kind of person to have that kind of nightmare.
