Description

Okay, I guess there's one thing I hadn't rayed yet. I'm glad that's taken care of!

Still on the fence about this one...Didn't come out quite the way I envisioned. I've really been having trouble adjusting contrast effectively since this downgrade to Photoshop 4.0. The curves tool seems different somehow, and I haven't quite figured it out yet. Plus the pose is uninteresting (unless you think of it as waiting for an autopsy), and the anatomy problematic in ways that can't be excused by genetic engineering--considering it's not consistent across both sides of the body! Ah well, I can always Scrap it and start over.

The basal morphology is roughly based on a gorilla. In fact, this could be a Chimerape as readily as an evolved human. I was probably partially influenced by Rick Yancey's vivid description of the savage "anthropophagi" in his chilling young adult novel The Monstrumologist (which association would be consistent with the autopsy pose, at least).

Not to be confused with Rain Man or Man Ray, of course.
