I like tofu, but not as a substitute for anything.
Is it any good? What is the consistency like?

I don't know how to explain.. good covered in gravy... bad when cold... a little bit like something trying to be something else and not succeeding. But, perfect if you forget what real turkey tastes like.

Good. I ignored the family and watched War of the Worlds while single handedly eatting the chocolate cake. My one year old neice wanted help walking up and down stairs for a good 20 minutes. Which was really cute. Yourself?

Such a calm, beautiful piece for such an angry and ugly beast; I suppose even monsters have to stop and think
There is a labyrinth in the park outside the lecture theatres here - I've walked through it, but I didn't become enlightened (or get eaten by monsters). Maybe this minotaur stopped fuming for a minute and thought he would take the time to actually walk through his labyrinth, and discovered harmony and philosophy and all those good things as a result!

Wow! That is super cool. I have never been in a labyrinth. But, I spend a great deal of time watching David Bowie in the Labrinth Movie... I wish I could get lost in that world.

OH....I just joined DA... so some of this is older stuff I'm submitting or stuff that I've been working on forever and just finishing now..... I wish I could submit this fast all the time, but work makes that difficult.

so nostalgical and beautiful you're great, RayArray, i absolutely love that piece
your minotaur is looking so friendly
poor creature indeed, it wasn't his fault at all that he was what he was, his mother felt a weird atrraction toward one bull, which was a punishment for one crime that ancient family commited in their relations with gods, and therefore she gave birth to such a weird creature, and the family hided it somewhere in the labyrinth, it's very kind of you that you let it go out breath a fresh air, meet his brds friends
your minotaur must be happy that he was finally drawn by someone with a kind heart
i love this piece

i assure you this what i said is really little comparing to what i know you would be seriously scarred if you knew those huge amounts of things that i was forced to learn about ancient mythology
gosh, really, it WAS scarring
i study literature you see, and i took a year course or Greek &Latin ancient literature, and luckilly passed the exam some year ago, so i really know tons i must say o_O some of names i forgot but some of the names and stories are still haunting me nad remain in dark labirynths of my mind, especially that some parts of ancient mythology were really creepy, horrid, and dark O_o
