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.

I love the skin texture. The shader is a little waxy, but that's what's popular. The detail is wonderful. The fingers, though, are really short. I have really stubby fingers (one reason I can't draw hands is how much I hate studying my own), and those are much shorter. Given the nail shape, I'm guessing this isn't a child, but the fingers are too short for an average adult (as in not a little person). Especially given the size of the thumb. Just putting my hand (almost) to the screen, the thumb is only a little shorter (one thumbnail length) but the fingers are about half the length (come to my first finger joint). And the width is only a bit smaller. And just to give some idea of how annoyingly small my hands are, I thought the round iMac mice were a perfect size before listening to everyone complain about them. Also, I think that vein would look a lot more realistic with some color. If this is the new Miki, I'm glad realism seems to be such a high priority, but I hope her proportions aren't set yet.

Thanks for the feedback. Can't say what it's for yet but Yeah the proportions are fairly set at this point. I think I did tweak the fingers a bit after posting this but I can't recall now. Anyway, this was all I could get away with showing for now but I hope the rest of it goes over as well.
