I think the wrists are okay as is, but I also fail quite hard at drawing hands so... my opinion might not be the best  :P

The pic itself is awesome, too. I especially like the beard/head hair.

Has anyone tried to render the... giant purple shrimp thing Toady described as the last good Titan he met? I kind of tried but I fail at drawing... shrimps... and hair. And dwarves, apparently.
So here it is, giant purple and kind shrimpthing next to a good ocean with some dwarf..like humanoids.

I'm talking about the bronze colossus. It's supposed to be made entirely of bronze.
But really he's just a softie inside. They all are really. When megabeasts come to your fort you never welcome them inside and give them a hug, do you. You heartless bastards...

Staring at that picture while zoomed in makes me realize that shrimp are really freaky looking.

Also...it makes me hungry.

Thus ends the official written history of the fortress known as Boatmurdered. May their tortured souls rest in peace.

Hmm...I was briefly tempted to make Gothmog's purple shrimp my forum icon.

Maybe I shouldn't have taken a pic of a cooked shrimp as reference. It's true what they say, you learn something every day. And sometimes it's about shrimps   :D

That thing is terrifying, though. It's like... I'm staring at it and it stares back into me. I guess drowning yourself in the ocean is the sane option when a dragon-sized shrimp appears in your fortress and asks for a group-hug. :P

A master wrestler fighting skeletons in a cave river.

This happened in my latest fort. The dwarf killed several skeletons before he drowned. I would arm my army with weapons, but I need to dig some more before I get the metal works running, and my miners have been killed or incapacitated by the many skeletons. And I need water from the river for the wounded. Which is why I sent dwarves to kill the skeletons in it. Sigh.

Really love those skeletons in the background, how they can just barely be seen from a distance in the murky water.  Sweet pic

MyLittlePonyBuiltMyHotRod, this is your first warning. I would like to direct you to read our forum's FAQ and posting guidelines before posting again. Specifically we don't use swear words here, and your picture of Stalin riding a Year3 Limited Edition Starflower inside a German concentration camp was both upsetting and historically inaccurate.

That pic is awesome. I never get cave rivers :(

Rather than having them directly force you to mine adamantine, I would suggest that they give you strange moods that require adamantine. "Dig out the adamantine or Urist here goes insane and dies" is suitably vicious.

(It occurs to me that you can probably get "Lovecraft" as the random name of your fortress. That's when you know you're screwed.)
