ReplyDeleteThe weird arm stuff got me, Sam. But you're right about the knee.
She is just a little oddly compacted. He clearly had a model for Background Pirate Hanging On Rope though.
I thought she had very manly hands. Doesn't she remind you of Adrienne Barbeau
ReplyDeleteLyn: you need to use the end tag too of /a in < > at the end of your link, ot it'll not work. A great place to see how these work is to look over your web template.
