Jan/Feb - hporter - Norm

I havent had much Maya time lately so I was delaying entering the comp... but I am jumping in now in the 11th hour. After lurking and seeing all the great enteries I became so inspired to play, I couldnt resist anymore.

with that said, time to get to work! here are my first concepts.
