EDIT
I was asked by It's Art to write a 'Making Of' article for this image. If you're interested in how it came into being check out the article here:

This looks great! Wonderful rendering. This guy is the style I would picture my monster sketches to be like in 3d. This is a shot in the dark, but you wouldn't be interested in collaborating on a character (I would do the "rough" sketch)? Bah, I'm sure your quite busy with your own neat stuff.

Thanks! I looked through your gallery, and I think your work is wonderful! Your character design is really -REALLY- awesome. I would love to model and render one of your designs.

Yea - the eyes are my biggest grief with this image. If I ever redid it, especially if I remade it all huge for prints, I would fix the eyes IMMEDIATELY.
