Love it! I think it manages to be both cute and slightly malevolent at the same

You're wrong, he is cute! I want one!

Gorgeous lighting & general soft quality to the picture.

Thanks!

Attached is an image of the original version. I probably should have 
kept the form closer to this, but I tend to overwork things...

Yeah, it's pretty bad. I had intended to make a bunch of these stuck to 
the bottom surface of an ice sheet, as if trying to breathe a little 
air. It was to be a horror scene, but I guess the nightmare manifested

Well, I think you should explore this one a bit more. It could be made into 
a really disquieting subject indeed. More *interesting* than its sibling. 
something about the skin texture could change things dramatically imo.
