[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] [IMG]https://i0.wp.com/brandonpilchersart.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/A-Huntress-from-the-City.jpg?zoom=1.25&fit=740%2C925[/IMG] A professional huntress, accompanied by her loyal Velociraptor, scans the jungle outside the towering walls of her native city for signs of game. This is a design for a different kind of dinosaur-hunting character, one based more on the rich history and diverse cultural heritages of tropical West Africa than on the stock tribal chick in a leopard-skin bikini (though, don't get me wrong, I like that second archetype as well). I drew most of the inspiration for this character's look from brass plaques from the medieval kingdom of Benin in what is now southwestern Nigeria (ironically enough, the modern nation called Benin is based not on this but rather a separate nation called Dahomey further to the West). Old Benin's capital, Edo, is also known for earthen ramparts containing more material than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, hence the basis for the big walls in the background here. [/QB][/QUOTE]
