Description
My wife, who's Russian and, although she loves The Wizard of Oz, didn't understand the smart-alecky rendition of the phrase "We're not in Kansas anymore" in application to weird things happening. So, even more smart-aleckally, I said "Do I have to draw you a picture?" Sealed my own fate on that one.

A hug for your wife!!! I think she inspired a great piece of work! Great action dynamics going on here, and the expressions are right on. The Gazer in lieu of the flying monkeys is a perfect touch! Bravo!

What a marvellous scene, it's an incredible mixture and all the characters are really well done and their posing and expressions really enhance the need to run, it reminds me of a Star Trek adventure LoL, great lighting and shaders as well. Nice one Aaron.

It does extend on my first exposure to smart alecky things and computers. In 1965 when I learned Michigan Algoritmn Decoder (MAD), the operative phrases were from Alice in Wonderland. Now we have moved from those "bad parents" that siad things like "things mean what I say they mean." to a more preternatural phrasing of external influence on everything. I like Dorothy's folk dress especially well. I admit I feel safer with Russians or Steppe Turks than with Rush Limbaugh or even Ford Service people.

Wonderful scene and you did a great job on the characters. Excellent!
Digimon
Bwahahahahahaha!!!!! That is AWESOME!!!!!! What a great idea! And your take on the characters is wonderful! Nice low camera angle! And the beholder is good and scary! I agree with matasabu, has a BTILC feel!! So, yes to splines? or no to splines? Personally, I love splines.
