Thanks for the compliments, man. Yeah, the whole "eye" thing is
why I've resorted to doing sketches instead of inks, because
sketches don't have to be quite so...exact.
I'm a bit of a stickler when it comes to details, and I've always
thought it's important to draw all parts of the subject with equal
care and enthusiasm. Feet are hard to draw, all right, but so are
hands. And I had to remember to "chunkify" the baby's limbs, feet
and hands (as all babies have that "Michelin Man" thing going for
them).
And don't worry, Koth is an *excellent* mother. Although, during
the day, it is actually the younger members of Treska's race who
watch the children.
