Jinx, if you'd be willing to give me permission to use this in a mod I'm working on, I'd appreciate it. It's great

There's so much to like about this one. Number one in my book is that here is an appropriately attired female...and a warrior, no less. No +3 Pasties of Doom here!
If her face started as a Poser product I see no trace of that here. Her lids are artfully shadowed and she has hair to die for. (A nightmare to care for on campaign, perhaps, but it is nice she can be feminine and competent simultaneously.)
The background and lighting are beautiful. She's beautiful...I'm rambling. The colors are beautiful for a ranger: very natural so she blends right in to her environment.
Her armor is mostly perfect. In a couple of places they seem to defy gravity (the neck...how does she get her head through that small opening? and how does it stay up?) or ignore the fact that a wearer would have to get IN to the armor (the chain pants...if they are essentially chaps as they appear to be, why does the chain go all the way across at the belt in front? perhaps the back buckles?). This would normally be a small deduction, but because the rest of the portrait is so astonishingly carefully and skilfully crafted and because it is a woman appropriately dressed (thankyouthankyouthankyou!) I'll boost it to a 10.

Love it, love it, love it! I rarely download from the Vault, but I'll definitely be taking this one home to study and use in-game. See score-related remarks with my vote.

A little dark and hard to see the details in the smaller versions. I like her armor...sexy, yet functional! ;) Great expression on her face, too. _________________________ Link a Ravenloft persistent world

well if the infamous dm mask comments, you know you did a good job, and I agree with what he says..and he's good at analyzing females surely. Good job.

I can see the players of female rangers everywhere drooling at this one. the armor may be a little bit to... 'unworked' I suppose is the best word. My eye's went first to her face, secondly to her chainmial panty line area, thirdly to her right shoulder and arm and following that linger mostly on the background. Brushing up some detail, or contrast on the breast plate might bring it out more if you want to. As it was her armor is rather...non-discintive. Maybe I'm lingering on that to much, but only because its the only area I really had to focus on to decide that it was indeed armor and not just a bulky leather jenkin. _________________________ Itinerant Admin: RPGModding.com - Where Modders Muster.

Its more effective than leaving a post on a vault entry you will probably never return to look at a second time
