Thanks! It came from an animation I did with tree-frogs. They were "singing" to didgeridoos... it was very fun

Exactly. And thank you. The other pics just don't lend themselves to the same technique.

Love your quote, by the way!

Should Erik have a nose?

NixRiAlynn In reply to americantemplar [2005-04-26 15:45:29 +0000 UTC]

Probably because his head is in sharp shadows and there are no midtones there. That would make it look like his nose is sticking out. But the whole effect makes him look like a ghost... Thanks for the comments!
