8-15-2011: I've been sketching a lot of cartoony characters in what the other artists
at the Concept Art Forum call my "deformed style". Several have encouraged me
to take them to the next level as digital paintings. This is one recent effort.

Please feel free to visit my thread there:Concept Art Forum Sketchbook Thread
Warning: This link does contain some artistic and comic
renderings of the nude human form. If you are under 18 or would prefer
not to view them please follow other links on this site.

Or, on my blog I've posted a longer description of this image as well as the
original sketch and a composite of some of the steps I took to arrive at the image above:
