Well, I was doing a test render of a holiday themed image last night (it was going to be something of a rework of my old Tasteless Holiday Humor image I did way back in 2003). However, Windows decided to update some component on my system and restarted *without* my permission. I was asleep and didn't notice until this morning when I turned on my monitor, jiggled the mouse, and was greeted with a blank desktop. Grrr... Anyway, I've had this image sitting on my HD for a couple of weeks now and decided to post it. It's part of a fantasy-inspired series, and those of you familiar with my recent work can probably guess where it is headed... ;) Thanks for looking, expect parts 2 through 4 soon, and enjoy!
