As long as you're going the amazon route, I see no reason to not go balls-out on it. I think you're being rather conservative. I'm thinking paints, feathers, bones... Like a berserker, almost. They relied on playing to the inherit fears of the human pysche. I like the junk in her trunk. Mmmm... trunk.  I like it because it makes her look tough; she doesn't have the fragile girly bullshit going on.(Note: the design of her gold pieces look very Mayan (perhaps Aztec since the curves are smoother), not Amazon. "Amazon" refers to a tribe in Greek mythology, but they weren't actually Greek. The Amazons were probably in fact Scythians, which were a mix of Mongolian, Russian, and Chinese stock). I love her face, BTW. It's her paraphrenalia that seems kind of tame.

Nice one Humble... The owl crest is very illuminati of you considering you lived in Washington which is a wash of ancient Babylonian symbolism. The subliminal attacks the subconscious....

Aztec. Yeah, I wasn't being true to anything really. I just love Mayan and Aztec designs. But, If I'm going for valid design, I suppose I need to rethink her. This sort of attire? (Just Googled Scythians)     |

I wasn't meaning to come off like a history nazi. I just think it would be interesting to delve into WW's TRUE historical roots, especially with such a talented artist at the wheel. That first Scythian pic has a nice pinache going -- a little greek, a little asian, a definite "rustic" feel, though the stone carvings would probably be better references for accuracy. It would be cool for Wonder Woman to have a pointy Scythian elf hat. :lol: Edit: I did some really bare-bones research on Scythians. Here's some info to get you started if you decide to go this route: -They wore a LOT of gold. This was apparently a striking feature about them. -First people of central asia to ride horses into combat, if at all. -A lot of animal symbolism -- eagles, stags, horses, wolves, ibex, etc. -Blue tattoos prominant. Shared this custom with Picts. -Very blood-thirsty culture. Ritualistic slaughter is common, enemy beheadings, skull cap drinking cups and so on. Here's a picture that I'm supposing is passing accurate based on what I've read. Note that these are presented as aristocrats, not soliders:

You didn't. I hope my reaction doesn't appear unappreciative. Your comments are always wanted and needed.  Edit: BTW, thanks for the added info! |

 Ok so just a little crit and this isnt complicated stuff cos then if it were i would be out of my league lol. Ok so you see part 1. First thing i see is that i think her 'breasts' are abit low. It looks by this that the shirt is tight and if it were would lift the breasts up bringing them higher. See part 2 and once again it looks like this shirt is very uncomfortable because it is so tight that you can see those bones through it. This makes the shirt look much tighter than it does in part on. Then see part 3 and it looks like the shirt is very loose to be able to have creases like that in it. So you see that the shirt looks tight, extremely tight and loose at the same time. You never know i might be wrong and kib or smoscar will give you a better crit but thats what i got for now  .But i do think that the bones showing through the chest are abit out of place aswell i think they should be alot higher i dont know maybe just above the the shirt because they lead to your shoulders dont they which also means they should be curving upwards instead of down*feeling own neck*. Tell me what you think about what i said. Neyals |

i made this silly header in about 15mins today in uni, as part of a website im making. Its temporary but i got some positive feedback about it. Im happy enough with it. Basically its like a speaker, but with eyes and a mouth and its random, and doesnt really mean anything. just a silly header, that will inevitably change soon enough. Not a big deal, but its been ages since i posted shit up so i thought what the hell. less talky more posty: Half of Week 1 of my site. there are a few 3D speaker models i made on the site as well, so any feedback is appreciated. Check me shizney out. There are a feww CSS problems in both IE and firefox, but fluck it, its a temporary site, till i create something better. |

I'm developing an animation where the main character works in a pick axe/coal mine, & he's to have a body similar to that of a boxer. So, naturally, I'm doing some sketches of boxers....these two went a bit far & I went so far as to fully render them.   C&C always welcome.... Ketchup Face! |

ok got around to making a couple other views of my guy, been meaning to give him a name. Any problems just let me know, and his buttcrack may or may not be part of the final model, not really sure at this point, but it could be funny and maybe cute. ooh and he will have fingers too, not just mitten hands. |

Sweaterjon, I loved this little guy on your first post, and I love him even more in rotation. The flatness to his sides with only a little lip roundness... great! What about a bit of bump for his butt? Not much, but just something like his lip in profile. And while everyone enjoys a cute Plumber's Crack, that ass of his is upside down. The crack is to separate the sit-upons for ... uh... evacuation purposes. If you flip it 180 you could then have just a little curve of his bumcakes overhanging the lower edge of his bar-o-soap body at the back. Looking forward to the fingers, too. That'll be a good detail. kib |

These were the funniest three sentences ever written. I fear I will never laugh that hard again. Is that guy supposed to be a cylinder or a rounded rectangle? If the former, his lips and eyes need to be adjusted in the side pose. Other than that he's beautymous. |

I've been working on this animation for a while now. It's based on the song called Mr. Jack by System of a Down. Intro and most of the Scene1 is now done. Mr. Jack Intro/Scene1 Not much action in it yet, though. Please, give me some constructive criticism and feedback. I'd really appreciate that. |

wow pepeto you are going really well on that animation, here are some tips for you at the first scene of your movie the truck get smaller than it should (getting the efect that it is going away) and the left tire seems to be out then at the second line we can see a white outline on the tire you can try erasing that one at the scene were the gangsters are reaching the van it seems like the gangsters car is coming out through the van other than that great animations there pepeto Im generally liking it :lol: and btw welcome to the forum

As I mentioned earlier, I'm working on a series of shorts that will be pieced together. I started working on this yesterday. The style has been done quite a bit before and some of you bit even view it as old hat but it links in well with my bigger piece. It also has given my a good opportunity to practise fbf on a small scale. Creation |

I like to police lineup BG, Malakym; I'd say it's pretty much perfect, but you will probably want to be careful when animating in front of it; you don't want to forget the shadows of any characters standings in front of those bright police station lights.
