The platypus is one of the strangest of all mammals. It is so strange, in fact, that many European naturalists dismissed it as a fraud at first. Not only does it have a duck bill, but it also lays eggs instead of giving birth to live young (making it a monotreme, a class of egg laying mammals). It is one of only a few venomous mammals, the males being able to deliver it through a spur on their hind legs. The venom is not fatal, but can cause incapacitating pain. They are found only in Australia and Tasmania. Platypuses were once hunted for their fur but not anymore.
This was my first aquatic scene. I think it turned out rather well.

tell ya what, would NOT want to be stung by the poisonous barb on it's rear legs... I heard it's more painful than a GSW. Nice technique on the fur, I'm curious if it's brush stroke or some kind of hatch pattern or bump map?
Daniel Eskridge replied:
Thanks, John. The fur is done using CGI. It's a bit long, but I have a video demonstrating it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzs1nihOvlo

This is really neat. It looks so realistic. I've painted & drawn almost all my life. I get a kick out of manipulating the paint & getting messy sometimes. I guess trying to get these same results by hand & brush give me a great since of satisfaction. Everyone loves their own technic & choose whatever tools of the trade that they like. No matter what, this is really nice work.

Thanks, Toni!
