Very nice observation--looking at it, I figure I could lie, and say that the 'extra joint' was created by a...lady 'client', if you would--but then there'd be the note of how the right arm was still working properlly...so I won't lie.
Thanks for the comments and critiques, Mistah Jinx--most encouraging and helpful to me. ^^ It makes me wish I could show you an image BEFORE I uploaded it, so I could work out the problems. X3;; Oh thee well.
grin Great picture. This made me smile. The pose, expression, and sling convey the message so well. The line from his right elbow toward his body is a little odd, though, as if he has an extra joint somewhere between his shoulder and elbow. Very nice otherwise, though. I'd like to see this finished.
