Sasquatch just looks massive!  As usual, love how you do his face.

This piece is really less about Sasquatch being BIG than it is about Wolverine being SMALL. Since he's about 5'2", and Walt's alter ego measures in at around 10', a standing Sasquatch would be almost twice as tall as Logan -- and that's what I wanted to convey in this drawing.

Hmm almost wish there was a third character or something of average height to give that reference point. I know we're supposed to know their heights but it would be interesting to hear what uniformed observers see, a small Logan or a big Sasquatch.

Great one, Chief. I do like the contrast in size between these two heroes.

As for the thread count, I saw that earlier and remember thinking it was high. I haven't really noticed counts before, but amazing, is this normal for the commissions?

The public is obviously starved for all things Wolverine.
Marvel needs to put him in another title or something.

This thread has been a small reminder to me of yet another word I seem to be unable to type correctly, first pass -- at least, not at my normal typing speed. Joining my tendency to substitutue "cahir" for "chair" and to ever and always swap "an" for "and" AND "and" for "an", is the way Wolverine manages so many times to come out "WOlvering"!
