My work basically is a reflection of my wacky personality, presented in any form I can find! I am a self taught artist, from sketches right on down to the big 3D. My first love of comics, cartoons and anime have heavily influenced me. The Artists who have influenced me most include the likes of Tex Avery, Mike Mignola, Travis Charest, Bruce Timm, Mario Ucci, and Barry Windsor-Smith to name a few. BIO Name : Teyon Alexander Age : 30ish (gasp!)

Worked as a volunteer at Merge Comics assisting with story layout, inking, coloring, and some minor penciling. Also did some consulting when Merge attempted to branch out into animation, as well as assisting in storyboarding. My work currently has been used in several reviews for Rhinoceros 3D in 3DWorld Magazine as well as the letters column. I have taught oraganic modeling classes at LEGO Denmark (great place by the way). I am a former Moderator at Renderosity.com (a website for artists). I've also done the odd fly-er/poster for individuals. I currently work for Smith Micro Software as a content artist for Poser and Anime Studio.

Really awesome creature! Excellent sculpting as is always the case with your Zbrush works. I'm wondering though, for practical purposes, regarding the way his pectoral muscles seem to "merge" with his bicep area (this could just be a visual illusion of sorts depending on the angle of view), if that wouldn't give his shoulder girdle some drastic limitation in range of motion. Seems like he wouldn't be able to lift his arms very high, and with those totally impressive claws, I would imagine evolution suggests he would have some really wide range of shoulder rotation. No matter, it's still one very impressive creation!
