Thinking to make a Afrian woman with many gold ring on her long long neck and with a big plate in her mouth... will it count? :P

I suppose that would be freaky to anyone not familair with it in the 1840s...

hey cool, i was thinking about that too for a moment... so i guess it might fit within the rules. just give it a 1840 twist indeed.

Here is she... I think I need to do some research on the dress... and some history background too... but still wondering about if the idea counts or not...:surprised

Just one thng I'd like to point out: The rings around the neck actually push the ribcage down, not the head up. And I think the group that does this is actually Indonesian, or South-Pacific area, not Africa. I could be wrong about that though.

I just wanted to say that while you were still sketching and since you have picked an actuall group of people to base your character on. :shrug:

Please don't take any offense to it. I'm just trying to help :D

ZRo: You remebered correctly you were referencing the Padung I believe but the Ndebele tribe in Africa also does the same thing .

Vizjerei: you mean the plate is behind her lip right or am I incorrect?

Yes, basically the plate is behind her lip. I will do some research on them...
