Women of Color...

...in fantasy photoshoots:

Those are cool photos, but I wish more of them had more fantasy in them, if you know what I mean. A number of them are just cool pictures of women of color in cool outfits, but without much that sets them firmly in the fantasy realm. That's just a quibble, though. I really like the ones that do have the fantasy element front and center, especially the winged woman with a sort of Egyptian feel to it. And the woman in gold somehow looks like she's casting a spell to me.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Yeah, some were barely fantasy at all, but the ones that really went all-in made going through the others worth it.

Depends on what fantasy they all are. They can be very magical or grounded but imaginary.

Plus, even if it's just a woman in a cute dress, I can imagine using them to help with a picture of an NPC.

My parents were fans of Boney M and Earth Wind and Fire so I grew up with images of woman-of-colour in fantasy poses - albeit that many were of the Afrofuturism bent.

Like the Oceans of Fantasy album cover which directly influenced my depiction of ‘the Undersea’

I may like this old clip.


The costumes in the OP are quite interesting. Not all very fantasy themed but oh well.

There was a LOT of that around in the 70’s. And that style is enjoying a renaissance in bands emulating music from that era..much of which is a bit too racy to post on ENWorld.

The original is pretty darn awesome, I have to say.
