  1. Well it is steel I believe, although judging by the softness of it it likely has a higher iron content than most. It's actually made from "angle iron" though now it doesn't bear any resemblance to that material. (the blackness is the "scale" on the outside, polished on a wire wheel)

  2. If those long "trails" are indeed a trick of the camara, (which I think may be so because of the fact that I can see the background through them), then the ears aren't that much bigger than a normal graysquirrel. The picture I found has huge ears, which are not a trick of the camara, I cannot tell which the one posted by Lacertus is.

  3. Good shading! Excellent use of perspective as well, especially on the angle of the guys face and the arm :wacko: It does look rather odd in the thumbnail view...I was wondering what, exactly it was before I saw the larger version. I like your style though :D It's cool.

    The subject plant has a European only range, maybe a family member?

    I see that we have an American cousin in fact, though a rather taller growing (3 feet) one with some charachteristics namely the extreme irritation caused by the fresh palnt to the gastro intestinal tract, indeed I see that some Native Americans (the Meskwaki Peoples ( I hope I got your name correct folks))) took advantadge of the presence of calcium oxalate to leave poisoned meat for enemies (mainly the Sioux I am lead to believe) after soaking in this herb.

     

    There are some mean little plants out there. :wacko: Indian Turnip is I understand another name or possibly, pepper turnip.
