I've been learning about radiation and atomic energy in physics this term, and that kind of inspired me. Apparently the rubber suits are just to stop radioactive dust from being ingested into the body - it’s nothing to do with direct protection. Alpha radiation is the most harmful to organisms, because the particles are heavy and slow - moving, but for that same reason you can’t protect yourself from it pretty easily. Touching an alpha emitter doesn't usually do much harm, but if you ingest the dust, it can do serious damage. That's how that poor guy Alexander Litvinenko died last year.

Oh well enough physics! You’re probably bored out of your brains by now, no matter how much this stuff fascinates me.

I tried to get some rhythm into this one, though I think the right leg could be bent more, in order to get a better s-curve. I was also trying to get a good line of action - ie. his arm and claw thing sweep up in a nice curve. I'm looking for some good critique on the posing, so feel free to tell me what you think.
