Silverleif and Little Dragon: Thanks for the links.

I completely agree about the eyes and needing to make the nose more crooked. The eyes looked better at a "basic" focal length, but I need to tweak them now. The nose is a little long too. I've tried making it shorter, but even a little difference seems to throw the whole head out of whack. Maybe that will change once I have the right amount of crookedness.

And you're right about the chin, too. I'm pretty sure the actual chin is right, but the texture has some weird distortions in it that make the chin look wrong.

Ghost of Macbeth: that's really very cool. I had seen a link to your pic in an earlier thread when I started working on mine, but the link didn't work for some reason. I always wondered what yours looked like. How'd you create his bag? I made a pretty good one by using magnets to deform Crowfoot's bag, but yours is closer in some ways than what I've come up with...

Thank you all for your help. I've admired your stuff from afar for quite a while, and it's great to be able to get feedback from you. I'm still relatively new at this - even if I am starting to get a little obsessed! :-) Looks like I have some more woodshedding to do. I kind of expected that, but now I have some idea of what to work on. I'll keep you posted if you'd like. -Mike
