Description Done nearly late enough to be considered early for 2017... seasons greetings (summer here in Australia) and all that my friends!

Just as well I'm already loopy, because there is madness to be found in painting all those scales.

Pencil sketch, paint in photoshop.

Its a scrabble piece... I play a lot of scrabble and decided to put one of the 'c' letter pieces in the scales for fun

I had a piece of string around the crocs head in my original sketch to show that the antlers were tied on, but never painted them in.

A most jolly expression of pure, unadulterated holiday cheer!

Drawing scales is one of the toughest parts when drawing reptilies, yes, but I think at least as impressive over how well you managed to draw the crocodile's facial expression. It ain't easy to make nonhuman faces emote, but you make it really well!

Very.  Uncle Buck hit Legendary Status with us little kids back then just by hanging out with us.  He was quite the character and that was before he killed a boar with his bare hands.

Haha! Me too... until I think through the actuality of having a giant crocodile turning up to my doorstep claiming to be delivering packages. I guess that would be one postman NOT worried about yards with dogs that bite

And a very merry whatever-it-is-you-crazy-Aussies-celebrate-down-there to you!
Also - long as we are in a merry and giving mood - how about you offer this as a (decent-sized) print? got myself a spanking new office - all to myself, huge, 3 doors, no windows (!), lots of walls... this would look really nice (and - unlike some others works of yours I would have liked to hang - would NOT get me slapped with a sexual harassment suit...)

Haha! Sure... I've just set up a Red Bubble site... give me a day or two and I'll load that one up as a poster option just for you I'll note you when its there if you like.
Seasons greetings and all that to you too my friend!
