===== From trioker@wanadoo.fr: Perfectly done ( I'm much impressed by the reealism of the palm ). ===== From cdsi26@bupers.navy.mil: No, we don't think you're crazy (note to self...call St. Mary's check records at Betty Ford). Very good render. A little texture on the hand would give it a more realistic flare. ===== From daffyduckx@hotmail.com: Wow, this is an exceptionally creepy image. The color texturing on the hand is great, but at such close range it's bound to look a little unreal. That thing, on the other hand, looks all to real. ===== From timk@jtse.com: Cool model. The concept is original, but unclear. As a result, the image is more gross than horrific. ===== From ameede@madmac.com: One of the better made images I've seen so far. Some of the creases on the hand were overstated and some where understated and needed to be shifted over to where the fingers actually flex. Nevertheless, the alien type of figure is fantastic, an original attempt at animorphism. The description you gave regarding drugs and/or insanity is not depicted within your scene whether you use them or not. But for an image in-and-of-itself with a mild case of horror thrown in you did great. ameede@madmac.com ===== From jake@snafu.de: Good texture on the "thing" ===== From dlauer@optonline.net: Wow, very scary! ===== From dwallace@lynx.dac.neu.edu: Several "Homo Scorpiens" chasing or feeding on something would have worked MUCH better. ===== From tina@ripco.com: Normal is a relative term. The hand is very well done, and the blood well placed given the "scorpion's" presumed attack. Your monster reminds me, in a way, of one of the monsters in Mortal Kombat (Goro?). ===== From rbenjam2@tampabay.rr.com: The skin texture is really great. ===== From ericf@foothill.net: This image unerves me. It conjures up all those feelings of having something creepy and crawly and dangerous on you. With the vague human-like qualities it becomes something more nightmarish. Nicely done. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Truly repulsive. And amazingly realistic. The only area that needs work is the blood on the hand, which has no depth. It looks flat, as if it was painted on the skin. Why not render in 800 x 600 size? ===== From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk: Really good looking image, and if there were such animals, then I hope I never come across one. The marks may not as high as you would expect, but you have used some expensive software that has facilities that make creating images like this fairly straightforward. Good concept. ===== From file: hideous - and I mean that in a good way. Notable for textures, modelling, composition ===== From file: I loved this one. Great idea well executed! Notable for textures, modelling, originality, composition ===== From file: As any (real) artist, you _must_ be crazy, and since I am too, I love this image. Great Work! (And I usually don't praise that easily)
