Here's my 1st attempt at a character to be featured on my website. I started in flash and then became weak and fell back into photoshop. We'll see if I can use flash and illustrator a little more competently in the future.
Comments are welcome.

| It most certainly looks cool. I love how he seems to have two different attitudes, depending on which pair of arms you're looking at. And the rendering is excellent. Woop! |

Very cool, very fun.
Who can't help, but like a warm and inviting yet cocky, jet packed insect?
Great character. I like his own sidekick in the puppy pouch. Look forward to more... |

Very nice character. i think his hands can use a little more definition, but all in all it's a good job.
is it going to be animated eventually? |

| Oh man, that's awesome! I LOVE the use of colors and lighting... everything about it is great. You could easily turn him into a full-fledged character with little work at this point, he already has plenty of personality. |

| That is too cool. Send him off to Raid Training and he'll kick ass in the commercials. |

Thanks again awetopsy! Thank you too Shinshot, and TremorX!
Bilbo: Yeah, I plan on getting into flash to animate him, and add to the long list of programs that I can use, but haven't mastered.
Where does the time go? |
