Two looks for Kalmath Falls. I love how the textures on the werewolf came about.
Fun fact... did you know that Minneapolis was once called “Flour Milling Capital of the World?”

Yep, I knew about the Minneapolis Millers in the American Association, when I was a teenager following the American Association, the International League, the Pacific Coast League, the Texas League and my beloved Southern Association.
I was a ball boy for the Mobile Bears of the Southern Association for several years... that is my all-time favorite team... got to meet a few future Major Leaguers like Gary Bell, Bill Dailey, Gordy Goleman, Jim Gentile and Dick Stigman.
One night I got to be the visiting team batboy... got to talk to Harmon Killebrew in the on deck circle 4 times... Gary Bell struck him out 4 times that night... I think he fanned 15 all total... Bell was soon promoted to the parent team, the Cleveland Indians.
