May I be the first to say WOW! I love this Brent. Such a fabulous design and layout with wonderful depth and dimension. The colors are amazing as well. So glad you're still alive and kicken over there. Bravo on this superb render.
If your image was in black & white, Brent, and a featured element on a 1950s and 60s monster movie, this would likely be the result of radioactive materials being dumped into the ocean... right over an ocean clam bed. Born in the early 50s, I found that most monster movies back then involved some critter-hybrid, brought on by radioactivity (until 2001: A Space Odyssey, that is). This is so cool. I have been away for some time, redoing my landscaping and building crap, and I missed your work.
If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
