Wow!

I agree... that just sounds bad. I assume you didn't mean it the way it came out.

Anyway...

any comments? (regarding the palm tree???)

I think it is very creative. Looks sharp.:beer:

Very original! I laughed out loud when I saw this. I really like the hands and they seem anotomically correct. They just look a bit thin. I would make the muscle on the palm area on the pinky side a bit rounder. Also I think the pot needs some work. The edges are a bit hard or sharp. I would also make the lip of the pot thinner, it's way to thick. And the very top of the pot should be rounded off. Just head to the gardening section of your local Home Depot for inspiration :)

(you shouldnt've said that) I agree.

On the side.... thanks deathcricket. I agree with the pot and the pinky. There are a few more areas where this could be improved... I may work a bit on it next week.

Thanks!

Talk about taking something literally. I would turn the hands over, presenting the palms more prominently for people who can't make the connection. The texture on the hands and pot need some improvement and dirtying up. Put some grit under the fingernails. :)

agreed with palms.. it would be cool if the hands
were flipped to show the palms
absolutely creative idea though
they are nice lookin hands too
also, it would be nice to see it in an
environment. keep it up~!
