Well - it doesn't have to take six months - not everyone HAS a full plate - and the ones who do probably won't be the one's doing this project anyway to begin with. Someone just did a satisfactory head for this creature over in the Bryce forums - and that probably took about an hour or two. The most complicated part of this character would probably be the fur.Actually it's geometry seems to be a pretty basic proposition - it's your basic, garden variety hairy dinosaur, LOL. Facial expressions and mouth and eye postures would be where the real complicated morphs would come in - but those can be done later after the basic figure is boned and hammered out.Once you bake the cake - the icieing shouldn't be that big'a deal. It doesn't have to be textured - just templated for a texture - as I can do textures like a snap.UV MAPPER is freeware - and will give you a halfway decent texture template. This character would be fun to make because with more and more add-ons developed for it over time - and lots of different folks doing morphs and textures for it - the possible permutations and varieties that might evolve from this character are damn near infinite. You could take this creature and it's derivatives into a thousand different directions.
