[QUOTE="Wyrmshadows, post: 3965332, member: 56166"] I think all of Klaus's art is fine for a RPing game. I really like pic #1. I like picture #1 because I can imagine a forest dwelling woman who (when its warm enough) wears some gear like this. These are real life warriors who wore less than this. Amazonian Indians, some African tribesmen, some Plains Indians, Celts, Australian Aboriginals, etc. And weirdly enough, I am of a mind to think that a woman who is [I]unconcerned[/I] about the armor value of her attire could actually dress is a manner she finds sexy and feminine. I find it interesting how in America at least, it is ok to see an African woman, an Amazonian Woman or any non-Western (ie. caucasian) woman in a loincloth and nothing else and no one bats an eyelash. Its like the National Geographic magazines where there is an anthropologists objectivity. As long as a women in presumed to be part of some stone-age tribe her breasts and buttocks can shown on a nature show on prime time cable without parental warnings. However, you show the breasts of a sexy blonde...well then shield the children because that will melt their little brains. Even if you put that blond in a villiage along the Amazon, there is no way she would be seen in the same light as the native girls. I would bet money that if there were an actual lost village of europeans were the ladies wore nothing but loincloths and the village was filled with 16-21yr old women wandering around wearing next to nothing...that show would be slapped with an R-rating and there would be people fighting to keep it off the air (like they did the Victoria's Secret fashion show). I know context matters, but my point is that it seems we have come to a point where any artwork showing a women in sexy attire is somehow offensive to someone somewhere. IMO there are times when someone doesn't have a lot of clothing that aren't trying to be sexy. Maybe in their culture folks don't wear alot of clothes. Maybe its the viewer's hypersnesitivity that is the problem and not the attire. Wyrmshadows [/QUOTE]
