Finally! Here is the first of eight 1000 Pageview contest winners. This winner is  jadem , a cyborg tiger.

I had a lot of fun doing that robotic eye. I'm pretty sure i'm gonna do more cybernetic/machinery type stuff on characters in the future. it's really fun and i like the extra challenge it gives me. I have to think about more textures than just fur, skin, hair and eyes. With machinery you've got metal that may or may not be reflective, you've got glass, rubber, plastic. all sorts of possibilities.

anyway, sorry it took so long, and i hope you like it, Jadem!
