Cath, I missed you! Been away for a while working on some projects. Have some time off now, and rendering again for fun. Your work is so brilliant, it makes me feel small. Great render as always, from the best texture artist in the industry. I actually was just in LA last year working freelance for a rather large FX firm for 3 months (can't say the name of the project for another 4 months because of the NDA), but I dropped your name to my supervisor as one of the best texture and UV artists I know. So if you get a call from "!?!!?", I want 50% of your asking commission rate. hahahaha. Just kidding. Great render.

The only thing I can say is what I always say about your work.. B R I L L I A N T!!!!! BRAVO!!
