Yeah, definitely dig the gems on the blowey-upey guy. Very good. I'm jealous... this looks like a killer show to have contributed to!
My contributions: Anatomy art based on sheet plastination (wikipedia) and another example which shows the transparency a bit better:
I saw a bunch of the customs today at WonderFestival, and I have to say they all looked very very nice indeed. Here are my contributions,
That sheet plastination idea is awesome! I worked one summer as a security guard at a medical school... they had a complete morgue stacked to the ceiling with cadavers. But one of the creepiest things was an entire human corpse cut into 1 inch thick slices and preserved in rectangles of plastic. I always wanted to stack them up and see what the guy looked like. Or put the head in his stomach area...hehe
