Description
This is a preview image right now. I am deciding on what kind of background to give her...The ideas:
1) Inside a dwelling with native ornaments around her
2) Outside on a hill with a nice blue sky and cloud backdrop
3) On a grassy mound next to a boulder with a stream flowing
I will post the final in the next few days.

That's pretty sexist. And racist.
A woman doesn't have to dress scantily to be beautiful. And natives never exposed that much skin.
I find the whole picture pretty ridiculous.

Shut the fuck up, you don't speak for Canadian natives
Triggered SJW

GG reviving a 3 year old comment that's been explained to the artist.

Your explanation is equally retarded, and dumb shit you say on the internet doesn't go away because 👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's the beauty of it, your comment will always be stupid and deserving of being called out regardless of how long it's been sitting there.
I knew the moment I saw this picture that I'd find some SJW bitching, better late than never.
I'm sorry, but I am native and have a long history of our culture.
Most of our women were gorgeous because they did their part in the whole of our way of life.
Both men and women were mostly nude in our tribes. Bear breasted, rabbit skins and feather dresses as worn for thousands of years.
I'm not sure if you realize that, but this is the second time in 5 years some one has commented that way on this piece. It's a cartoon of what I liked at that time.
Please be careful of how you view things. It's a matter of perception and perspective by the viewer and I take your words in kind as that from your perspective and observation.
No friend or family member from the surrounding tribes ever disliked the piece or cartoon/comic art.
Thank you, though, for the view.
I always appreciate any view or opinion/input.

I actually feel pretty bad about that. Sorry. I'll try to be more considerate from now on.
Call me ignorant, but I'm only knowledgeable about my own tribes and what I know of southern tribes are from television (my thought goes to Peter Pan). Since summer is short and winters are cold, we always covered a lot of skin, so I wasn't sure about your art of the nearly nude woman.
When I make comments that seem rude or mean, it's usually a combination of searching really stupid stuff and feeling cranky, or trying to be a troll, I guess. It's like real life. I try to be stupid and mean and it just doesn't work. For one, I'm too much of a wimp, haha.

Don't worry about it.
500 Nations. Not every tribe was alike and had their own languages and cultures, and sometimes (especially by those ignorant in the outside world that don't know Native Americans) think we're all the same. We may be bound by our continent, but we all have our own traditions, way of life and food sources.
I can't be like that when I go to France and think they're all like Germans. If you get what I mean?
When I have to explain those things, it goes over everyone's heads.
Anyway, we are all different, but the same in a lot of aspects. I paint and draw my own peoples culture, and that's because I grew up in it, and my families have for thousands of years. It may look like "Pocahontas" in a sense of the cartoon, but that' what it was meant to be. A comic character.
Thanks for the reply though!
Much appreciated.

I understand what you mean. I mean, even I don't know much about my own culture much less the hundreds of others out there, but that should be clear enough that we're all different in our own way.
It's cool you draw from your own culture. We have an artist here who likes doing the same, but he constantly asks advice from elders to make sure it's okay to paint or show to outsiders, to be respectful. I've only recently found out that Indians have stories and stuff we're not allowed to tell outsiders until another Indian online indirectly told me. Kinda felt dumb for a while. I'm still learning.
I'm also making a story with native themes but with more subtlety. Having it set in Russia with "magic" (it's actually medicine power) and including stuff from our legends, including giant animals.

Oh, yeah. I asked the same things when I was younger. I only depict certain things, not a lot of the other things that go on.
Very cool you're doing your own thing! Keep it up!
Cheers!

I thought so. I mostly tell legends I read in books or were told in class, I was never told to keep a certain story to myself, only a few instances.
Yeah, had a comic drawn and planning to animate it to a cartoon. People here keep wanting an artist or writer so I might as well embrace it.

native american girls dont show thereselfs like that.

what you think all native women are stoic and don't engage in beauty?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ack!
No offense, but it's not Pocahontas... sorry to say
But, she's a nice native american girl anyone could admire just the same
Thanks for the comment, though!
Cheers,
DWF.

Pretty!She is really pretty!Weary well done!
I vote for third solution.She doesnt look like indoor girl.

Thanks!
Yeah, I liked that idea and it would fit her perfectly. I am going to edit some areas of her as well to tighten up the image.

Of all the stuff I've seen of yours lately, this is probably the best. I really mean this -- she's simply beautiful. Just beautiful. I think the grassy mound with the boulder and stream sounds nice.

Hi, thanks.
I had that in mind the first time I finished the colors. So, I plan on using that background.

I got one question for you, Why her finger nails and toe nails are pink?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Maybe because I thought it would be girly. Not sure. What do you think I should have gone with, a dark red?
