Hook Horror

[Finch]

The hook horror is complete:

VERY NICELY DONE! I love the skin shades & the mottled patterning om the shoulders & head. Your color choices & brushwork are OUTSTANDING.

[Adrift]

I like your take on this piece and think it is very well done. My only critique would relate to the stone and the hooks; they have too strong of a resemblance. I might have tried shading the hooks more akin to the beak which I really like.

[Hibou]

Love the skin color. Very nice work.

[Baugi]

Bloody stunning. Love the skin especially.

[ShadowRaven]

fabulously done. Would not mind unleashing this on an unsuspecting party of spelunkers

[MiniCannuck]

This looks fantastic!

 

It's too bad that they are an endangered species. It's hard to reproduce without any "stuff".

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for monster junk - it can be hidden by well placed fur or scales. It's just weird seeing a monster as smooth as a Ken doll.

 

... NOT that I check out the junk of Ken dolls...

 

... I think I'll shut up now...

 

Did I mention how great I thought the paint job was?

Cool. I really like its skin and plates/beak.

well you see, most of them do, but this poor fellow had an itch one night while he slept

[joshuaslater]

Superb.

[Hawker]

That's wonderful work Finch. I like that you limited your palette and that the base and figure co-ordinate so well, it looks at home, and all the more menacing for it.

[Tricksay]

Love the blends and colours. Nice work!

[Elder One]

Very nice! I like the skin color you used. Very well done!

[Finch]

Thanks all.

 

@ Adrift: A fair observation. For my part, I was concerned that the contrast between the skin-color and the grey used on the base would be insufficient.

 

@ MiniCannuck: Ah yes, monster junk... Hmm... I'm sure I had something insightful to add when I started typing this but at the moment I can't imagine what that was.

[Foxfire]

That's a really awesome job and has me off to check the old Monster Manual. I had always pictured those suckers different, but yours is now what I'll always picture in my head when I think of the ole hooky horror. Fantastic work.

Hey hey, this guy is not representative of his species, he just had an unfortunate scratching accident in his youth.
