Talking uuc - weirdo from another planet
...or the present i gave today to my husband for his 50th birthday ;-)

what's that ? - you might rightly ask ... yes, it is an uuc, as these monsters were named by my husband. we are doing together a 3d computergame, he is doing the programming and framework, i am doing the artwork, creating the monsters, and scenery objects, the look and feel etc ... and the uuc are a group of monsters occuring in that game, i modeled, and my husband liked them most... and, since he likes strange things, i thought i make him an uuc from wood as birthday gift ... and, i was very pleasantly surprised, he likes that carving, the first one of my works he likes :-) he wants put on his office desk :-) happy me, happy him, with a strange carving... i hope you enjoy seeing why my couple carving was so delayed lately...

Fantastic!
What a creative breath of fresh air.
I certainly admire folks with such artistic and creative minds-connected-to-hands.

Another "Well done!" Madame doris.

It seems to me I saw something like that running across my family room floor last week. That's why I had to make a trip down to the "do-it-yourself" bug spray store for some super potent bug spray! Got them little suckers too! Ha! Ha! That's quite an imagination Doris! Very nice work! Are you going to add more color to it?

That is Crazy Wonderful!!! Good for you ...and your husband!!! I know how happy you must feel when you have his appreciation for your work. My husband is my worst critic, but when he likes it, I feel I did a REALLY REALLY good job! Happy Birthday to your husband! Your amazing Doris!

Beautifully done! Now you will have to make a chess set to show off all your "creatures".
