Based off of one of Boingo's sketches.

looks good there, quad! That'd be a hard enemy to sneak past, that's for sure!

Ooh... purty. I only have one problem with it. The balloon is a little too... patterny. Maybe larger swirls/bumps mixed in with the smaller ones?
Shh!  I'm taking a break from reality.

Yeah, that looks very nice, but maybe more variance in the slime

It's actually really hard to do that since I used Boingo's TALLSNOT Textures stacked so that it was squared and used a tool in GIMP that maps it onto a globe. At the time I was considering rotations for this monster, but 75 said that all would be fine without rotations.

Also, coding is almost finished minus a few bugs - All Thanks goes to Combinebobnt.

Honestly, Quad, I'd take a tool like Photoshop, or Paint.net or something (never used GIMP, so i don't know it's features), and just paint your own pattern based on that one (but more varied). It may take a bit to get it right, but then you'd know how to do it in the future.
Shh!  I'm taking a break from reality.

Hand making slime is actually really hard, it involves knowing about how to make cartoony borders for the 3d areas, and shine. I wouldn't try it, personally, I've just barely mastered metallic sheen.

I know it's rather hard, I've tried it myself. But if you can get it down, you've got it down. I honestly would recommend doing it.

oh, I will try it eventually, though right now I know I don't have the skill for it.

EDIT - Just read this again, you can draw slime? Really? That's great!
