Nah. I only post a few pictures now and then. I sometimes don't have the time to draw new stuff, so older unpublished work is often what gets posted online (like the recent Onika picture, drawn 5-6 years ago originally).

And not everything needs to be seen (especially when it's 20 different versions of the same picture, with minor changes between them!). ;-)

I had misinterpreted the poster's question, so that was totally my fault. I was think within the human scale range and trying to figure out how a 12-foot-tall (or 4-foot-tall) creature would compare to a species that ranges around 5-6 feet in height. I think I was picturing human sizes and overlaying those with anthro sizes and it threw me off a bit.

Ponies are used for glue and dog food. ;-) There are several breeds of horses, but no ponies in that world (unless you count four-legged ones).

I'm neither an architect nor an engineer, though I have designed and built numerous things over the years. I do have some designs I have been tinkering with, as far as homes go. I have also been contemplating meeting with a friend who is a builder/contractor and engineer, and seeing about possibly getting the idea patented if it's something that looks possible (and not overly expensive). I'll have to see what happens with it, I guess.

While I won't reveal any info about the designs, I will say that the concept will appear in the Caterwaul stories.

Getting better. Left eye surgery is coming up on Wednesday, and I'm still carrying around 5-6 pounds of extra water weight (slowly getting rid of that). Standing or sitting for any length of time can make the feet and calves swell up and hurt, so until I can get those last couple pounds off, I'm spacing my work time out over a wider time frame. It sucks.

Hey, did anyone else here have to deal with those wonderful storms sweeping through the Midwest over the past week and a half? Got hammered here, but nothing as bad as what other places got. Power was gone for a few hours on two separate occasions last night, and there's some wind/rain damage, but that's it. No overturned cars or shit like that. Hope no one here had to deal with that crap.
