Sneaky, I think you slid some more images into this post!

Cool

I'd like to see the Modern Saelistian in the same pose and maybe even side by side with the Prehistoric Saelistian, it would help show off the evolution of the Saelistian.

Yeah I saw this earlier, what would make it real nice is make it in to a flash comic so that following it would be easier.

Yes, that is a slick presentation, I need to learn flash, thanks for the link. Here is an animation I made trying to showcase the comic work, but I didn't have the time needed to really pull it off. This animation is around 12 megs, so watch at your own risk!

It pretty good, but as I was once told "Your animation is either to slow or to fast...hmm not much else to say." my interview at Turbine

LOL! You got that right about the speed issues, it is all part of the learning process, since I mainly do stills, I haven't had the time to learn all the finess required for good animation. I gave up on trueSpace (what the ani was done in) for animation and purchased Kaydara Motion Builder, but haven't had the time to learn it yet, my thinking was that whatever highend 3D package I purchase, I can transfer the MB stuff to it. Now that Alias seems to have purchased it, I am hoping they offer some sweet cross grade deal! LOL I am also trying out SoftImage at the moment.

Thanks for the speed reminder, it was a two week rush job for a competition and I was going for an artsy bohemian feel to it!
