Shaun,
With work like yours, you needn't even ask that question! But if there weren't room for you, I'd surely step aside.

Here's a newer illustration of mine. It's a rough concept for a character of mine. Aidee.

Great looking stuff! Love the way you use light in your work. Is it digital all the way or are there any traditional tools employed there?
I notice you're in Palo Alto- about an hour north of me. Would like to invite you to check out the San Jose chapter of Animation Coop. We'll likely meet again in October. Feel free to email me.
