A talented artist turned my 2D into 3D!

I gotta say.  Awesome.  Felipe Bassi is a 3D modeler in Brazil.  Not only do they make brilliant fighters they also make skilled artisans over there......   I think he did a superb job.  I would totally dig a 3D print of this guy.  Oh man I can taste it.  Anyone know of a good place?

So here's the original art that Felipe used as inspiration.

And his 3D model!

Great job Felipe!

Think Tank Anthropomorphic Pirate

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. We are all familiar with a "Herd of cows", a "Flock of chickens, a "School of fish" and a "Gaggle of geese". However, less widely known is: a "Pride of lions, a "Murder of crows" (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an "Exaltation of doves" and, presumably because they look so wise, and a "Congress of owls". Now consider a group of Baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates. And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons? Believe it or not ... a "Parliament". A PARLIAMENT OF BABOONS!
