Kbrown: yes that the reason I decided to actually write it, well i didn't mean to, but wanted to mention the snake going up his arm, and it just seemed so funny.

I got some other tips, but I must confess I am battling the time here, so I just move on to the stuff that needs to be modeled.

I'll be glad if I can finish in time.

I'm not sure how the surrounding is going to look like.

The pic below shows current status. I have just started to model the cape. I think I'll try the fur, but it's not very important to me.
