the legs and angle of body make the monk look extremely twisted...? i dunno a lil weird imo
kind of the whole point of the image (wasn't really going for any kind of reality)
monk is way to tall! Feet are to fat! His head does not appear to be real!
that's the whole idea LIONSDEN
I doubled the leg size, I found a stoic head to replace the original (carved in stone) and found a background that resembled a temple, all to reflect the Seneca quote
The best remedy for anger is delay. -Seneca
i honestly dont get how a stone head and fat 'real' legs are Seneca to that definition.
When a child is born different/odd or the worse, unloved, they often turn Stoic. They realize at an early age that no matter how they cry or how they strike out there will be no better outcome. They learn to go Stoic. They learn that their anger is useless against the unfairness and the only thing that helps them is to just detach and delay. I created a creature that is the polar opposite of a super hero.
His spine is malformed, his head has turned to stone, and I gave him great big feet for added conflict. I know it could have been a shapely girl nicked from deviant art with hairdryer hair, and weapons from another galaxy with a monk robe thrown on her for the contest but that really isn't my style. Besides we have enough WOW characters not to create more.
Thank you for calling it a lil weird, I took that as a compliment (though I was going for a lotta weird) sort of like dada movement or the movie "Society" without the gruesomeness.
This is so weird that it's good. Strangely interesting! Good luck author.
With the explanation that you give, I agree with Terry, somehow sadly true. Another good one, author.
