wow, this is fun.  i gave elizabeth and chris sherman direction artistically
when i assigned the task to them a month ago.  I have put artistic input in
regards to the design of the beast whenever it has come up.  we have a
concept artist working on it (elizabeth) that is going in a direction i like
and am all for.  chris sherman has been busy for awihle and i hadnt heard
from him so i assumed he needed a break so when katie asked about working on
it i said fine.  I am not going to step on elizabeth and katie's toes or go
over their heads when they already have my input and  already have been
discussing and drawing up/working on the beast. that is why i point chris in
their direction, because it is their creature.
so yeah... everything is fine and we don't need the beast yet so i am not
rushing anyone but i would like to explain and rationalize your hostility
and criticism so that it makes sense to me instead of sounding like baseless
BS from a talentless idiot... thanks/
