LOL that's such a cool model, the figure is great, and yeah it does look like Picard!

If you're going for the Geiger feeling, add lots and lots of ribs everywhere, and if you can fathom it out in your software, add some translucency to it, to give it that stretched skin / chitin feeling

Visit my Endless Pluto Station project, I'm still working on it, honest!

A very cool looking chair, the skull actually reminds me of the alien/human hybrid from Alien Resurrection but better. My only suggestion would be to do a different looking skull for the arm rests just, then the chair could be likened to the Devil from Dante's Divine Comedy, a beast with three heads and in the mouth of the central head sits Judas Iscariot.

Just my thoughts!
The hands are a great idea, but I'm teetering on the edge of not finishing. I'll see where I'm at by mid next week.

I'm starting to shape the back rest and head rest to recieve parts of the spine structure. Not much progress, but I'll be gone for the weekend and won't be able to update till next week. This will give you an idea of the style I'm going for.

Haven't totally given up on finishing this yet. I decided to make this a floating chair. I'm testing out anti-grav pods on the side, but not happy with them.

The anti grav pods look like they might fit in better if you made them slightly more organic and grooved.

Also, how did you get the picard stand-in's pants to fold like that? Is it modeling, or cloth simulation?
