An illustration for "The Cimmerian" - [link]

The reptilian thing pictured here, bearing the corpse away, is meant to be an alligator. I decided to take a wild guess about alligator anatomy, rather than consulting Google Images. Wasn't even close! Oops.

Think of it as a nasty amphibious creature rising out of the murky depths of Socar's imagination.

I like it.

Well, I think your alligator looks better than original ones. Especially its tail.

It's not how big your fwoosh is, it's how you use it.

This is amazing. There's so much to look at.

Superbly detailed and stylized. I love the linework and formation. Great looking composition.

Well, it's Howard. His primordial critters could be as outre as those of Burroughs.

Silly, me, I hit "send" too soon. The line flow in this is so lovely.

Anatomy doesn't matter when it's really cool looking right? :)

Lovely work. I much prefer your alligator... a real one wouldn't feel as storybook-ish as this one does. And please forgive my made-up words...
