Great job on him!

damn that's nice.. lovely GS work.. and great brushwork on the name as well..

if I was to be super picky I might ask why he's a green frog in a green vest.. couldn't you have used a red/yellow posion arrow frog as your inspiration given his ability to hit targets from a dangerous distance? :roll:

in any case, if you ever want to make a few more of these fellows for cash, drop me a PM.. great conversion work! 8)

The conversions great, Highlander references even better.

Green is my favorite color - simple as that. Plus, I figure the red in conjunction with the green would remind me too much of Christmas. :wink: The rest of the team (if I ever finish them) will end up being a mixture of subdued greens and browns. I figure at least a couple of them will look very much like Battletoads...

I think the amount of time I put into this sucker would preclude selling off something similar for anything remotely resembling a reasonable price, but I'll keep it in mind. Thanks!

Green skin + blue, orange, yellow, and white jersey? My eyes would bleed! :wink:

Also, the colors for my local CFL football team, as well as my high school's football and rugby teams (which I played on), are green and gold. That influenced my decision as well, but I'd forgotten that when I posted earlier.
