prehensile brain


Today I designed Donald a Prehensile Brain for his blog banner. I was going to make a whole banner, but he said he can do the rest with CSS. I think it's kinda cute in that macabre, Pythonesque way. I love the photoshop, and I love the pictures I swiped from the internet. In case you wanted to know, the spine part took about 25 layers to make. My spine source picture was curved the wrong way, as spines do, so it took a lot of copying, resizing, transforming, and a fair amount of skewing.

If I knew how to make an animated GIF, I'd make one of it walking with the tail curling as it steps. It'd have a rough time though, with no knees, poor lil' guy.
