Hello, this is my post for the challenge. Basically, it’s a blinzed bird base that has been crumpled.

Very nice Jellyfish, Wizmatt! Despite the simplicity of the base, you did it really well. Very clean looking.

Hi! It's been a long while since I've been active on here. I deleted my Dropbox years ago, so some things, like my Dragonfly Varileg guide, are lost to time. I may still have other things, though! Email me if you have any questions.

Funny penguin... nice "hair", LOL!

I liked the Jellyfish so much, too. It's hard to shape the tentacles from that base...

I designed one jellyfish but i didn't like it... i'm trying to do it better... the base is blintzed style too, but not an usual blintz base... I'll be posting soon...

Here is my hammerhead shark. It was designed from scratch and the whole model is completely different from that...thing I made last year, so I hope it's eligible.

Crab, by me. It was supposed to be a winged insect, but ended up this way.

Dude! That hammermead shark is great angrydemon! I especially like the detail you've put into it, like the gills. I'm working on a sawfish at the moment, so I hope to post that soon.....but it won't be half as good as the shark.
