Hi Guys

Thought I'd pop in and show what I've been up to for the last hour n a half or so. This an alien for my graphic novel, who is based on Basil Fawlty of Fawlty Towers no less. He's gonna be a real spindly looking dude and a bit slimy too!! Enjoy for now, crits welcome as usual!!! off to tweak some more

Later

I like it a lot. It's got a lot of character. What are you using to model?
