Very nice, Mike!
There's a weird tangent in the first one, though. The woman's left arm and shoulder are working with her chin in a confusing way. The tangent line of the arm looks "off" just touch ... |

Hi Rob.

Hey Skeezer
The forms in your concept work are nice (although that spaceship is a little too reminiscent of the Radiant VII from Star Wars: Ep1).
