    Very nice work there. The light in #2 doesn't really do it for me (I think the orange/yellow part is what I don't like in the shot), but all of the rest are very well done. I like #3 best of the whole group, sort of like you've interrupted feeding time...

    Nice pics.

    I was going to ask about the pentagram on the forehead in the last photos (I've always seen hexagrams) but I just looked it up and apparently both pentagrams and hexagrams are used by the occult.

    They do, however, have two of the points on the pentagram facing upwards-- a simple rotation if you're looking to be really authentic.

    Thanks Pete.....yea, should have researched a bit......Laughing.gif. Might be tough to rotate now unless I went back several layers then did all the other stuff again. :D

    Thanks Gringriff....I have a couple different edits of #5..one is with fog but it seemed as though it lost a bit of detail..so, this has fog but not as much and a bit darker.
