Description
Another present for , this is one of Simon's dinosauroids povorot.deviantart.com/gallery…Clad only in ceremonial axe-helmet and head-dress, this woman clasps her wolf-head rattle and drones equinox songs from the height of her roost-throne over an fire. It was sacerdotal authorities such as these who later became the Priest-Burgomasters of the Classical age, their influence only broken with the invention of radio in the Mechanical Age.

Oh lordie Daniel this is fucking SWEET! I love the dromaeosaur 'wolf-head' rattle so much. Thats a fun idea for dialogue/description in this story world, too - just a straight substituting of modern animal names for the weirdo dinos that fill their corresponding niches...

You mean how I got lazy and didn't bother to make a name for----I MEAN how I got lazy and copied Vernor Vinge's use of "orca" and "wolf" in A Fire Upon the Deep---I MEAN HOW I COMPLETELY INTENTIONALLY DID SOMETHING COOL AND ORIGINAL??
YES, I AM SO GOOD ART NOW!!

It does look more like she's IN the fire than behind, doesn't it. Maybe add some more haze for depth?

Aw, no, I wasn't picking on you--I think it looks fine...It's just the first thing that popped to mind with a bird-like creature elevated above the fire, that's all. .....Hmm, I guess I see what you mean though...Man,that's a tough one, I'm not sure how I'd go about separating those elements, given the positioning. Maybe not even haze but like we're seeing her THROUGH the fire, to give more of an impression of her behind it...? That would be dramatic, too. Goron Cavern stylee.
