Maybe it's the ancestor of all hedgehogs and porcupines we have nowadays...

Hmm, bench has a little thickness, but table is totally flat... But the concept is very funny!

nicely done. great effect.

Much better, with your edit there is much more depth in the image now!

Funny image, but table & bench have no thickness.

really nice storybook feel to this.

Nice work. Good luck author

Very nicely done. Great job on the fly-out pieces.

Nicely done! Really like this guy! The only thing is it's hard to tell the separation of the "arms" a bit of shading on the arm father from view would help that. otherwise

fab.. work!!

you are always good

hehehehe.. the water in the cups should slosh a bit.. JUST KIDDING.. great job (had to put in a snitty comment hehehe)

nice work author !

ricky.. I'm pretty sure the eye is the chestnut with a blue hue change and center blackened with two white strike marks on the right side to create gloss.. though I could be wrong.. but the author says it's source only.. so I'm pretty sure that's how it was done

ack... great work author.. good luck

nice! how did you make the eye?

hey its really nice..

On the theme, amazing work.........

I would like to say....... BRILLIANT....

awesome! i wish the sbs would be more descriptive...i'd like to learn how to set this kind of mood! bravo!

Absolutely beautiful! My only issue is the mountains on the left, they seem so sharp and defined compared to the softness of the overall image. Definitely a fav in my book!! Best of Luck =)
