Greetings! I've been hearing Goldie and Mitty talk about this project for ages, so I finally decided to see for myself what the fuss was all about. Looks great! It's a shame that Freeborn couldn't trade budgets with, say, the latest Adam Sandler epic, but hopefully the success of this film will encourage studios to properly fund future werewolf movies that go beyond the typical mindless action/horror formula.

I suppose I should say something about myself now. Hi, I'm Jim. I generally use my real name instead of an online handle, although I do go by Angry Jim in some circles, for reasons that are unlikely to become clear anytime soon. I'm a 30 year old guy living in Boulder, CO, a software engineer and (increasingly) graphic designer by profession, and I'm currently slogging toward a doctorate degree in immersive visualization. In spite of my disparaging remarks above, I really dig mindless action/horror movies; however, scripts with at least half a brain are even better.

Lots of therianthropes here, I see. You can add me to that pile, although I'm guessing that I'm the only one here who identifies with the seal instead of the wolf. Lemme tell you, if you think it's hard finding good werewolf movies, try to find any movies that even <i>mention</i> selkie mythology, other than The Secret of Roan Inish. At least that one didn't suck...

Well, enough about me. Cheers!

Looks like a canine skull to me. I'm not into bones enough to tell what canine's skull though. But I'd venture a geuss at wolf.

It's actually a mask that I threw together this summer. It's based roughly on the skull of a harbor seal, although I had to fiddle with the anatomy a fair amount so that I would be able to wear the thing. I'm only about half way done with it, so it looks pretty frumpy in real life, but I figured the picture would work all right as an avatar if I Photoshopped the bejeezus out of it. :)

Nice to meet you all!

Yep, that's the one, and here's the specific photo I used for my avatar. Like I said, it's really in need of more work; the ripped fabric needs to be replaced by something that looks less mop-like, and the surface of the skull is way too lumpy. Other than that, though, I like the way it's coming along.

Heh, I'd forgotten about the duckie in that photo. Seems I have more in common with the members of this forum than I had previously anticipated.
