This grizzled, hard boiled character has had a rough life so far. He doesn't have a name yet, so suggestions are welcome. There's a funny SNL sketch called 'Who's More Grizzled?' that describes the theme behind this skin well. The skin is about 50% complete and the scars and peppered facial hair are on optional layers.

That's an awesome skin. I'd call him Flint Macgruder.

Or, in homage to your "Adam" skin that I love so much, and a certain old television show, perhaps "Grizzly Adam." :D

Clever :)
Too bad he doesn't look more like the Unibomber (needs wild hair and bushy beard).

The grizzled dude is going to have a completely different upper and lower texture applied. He will have absolutely no genetic relation to Adam, who's still waiting for his female counterpart, "Eve". She is still on the slab in the lab. :o

A few people who have seen the progress of texturing this character in RL have offered the names 'Lum Gunyon' and 'Mucca Muldoon'. They go well with first and last together, but I'm only going to pick a first name. I think I should offer a free version of this skin ($L5000 value), when completed, to anyone that comes up with a name that I choose.

Don't take this wrong, but its about time ! Good lord .... I'll be the 1st to buy this one, I'll even pay to be beta. In other worlds I'm known as "Severin" , I think the name fits the image =)

That could be hard to beat! Hold on to those L$ a while longer. Your skin might be free. We'll see :)

The winner of this impromptu naming contest will probably get the skin a full week before it goes up for sale. It always takes some time to sort out the ads in SL and on the web, and package the thing for sale.

When I saw the preview shot, Jethro Tull's song "Aqualung" popped into my head . . .

I think that's my favorite one of yours yet, Namssor. Awesome work as always.

Wow.

I'm totally captivated by him. He truly has character.

Well done! If I was a guy I'd buy him :)
