I got this Guy and his Pal at DAZ3d, I found this model to be strange yet captivating as well, I am very impressed with it and would love to see the artist continue on making creatures. Thanks Sanctum art.

I concour - great model, and i really really hope that he continues to make multitudes of them

I really like the demonicness of this figure.

And I really liked the ability to effect the creatures appearance as well.

He kind of reminds me of the monster in Aliens for some reason. :)

Maybe, "Unnatural Breasts", hehe...

Anyway I found my Geni or Gin rather for my comic, I decided to make him Blue and make some slight changes to give him more of an evil demonic Geni look Now if I could find a Demonic Geni Lamp to go with it.

"I wish that you become one with the lamp"

What's a "Demonic Geni Lamp"?

Argh! It's "Genie" or "Djinn". Warning from the spelling police. ;)

For my first wish: I wish you were a young Barbara Eden, instead of an ugly ass monster. :p

unless it's a spelling mistake that substantially alters the meaning of what's being said, IMHO the spelling police should go find a virtual donut shop :-)

Holy crap! Those aren't big boobs, they are built in flotation devices!! Pretty cool pic though.

I'll accept just about any spelling for djinnis and efrits because they are translated from another language and another time... with a totally different alphabet. How Perkins hears the word is different from how Perlman hears the word is different from how Perriman hears the word... and they are all trying to write it in English, another mutable language, after passing it through a few other tongues. "The Tales of the Thousand and One Nights" were known as a collected body throughout all the Near East and across North Africa a thousand years ago. The individual tales are much older (Homer was acquainted with a few of them). If there was a trade route, there were talkative people gathered along it. More than spices and fabrics were carried from exotic lands. All those voices and all those languages... and no one true spelling. The written form of a word is important. It is a record, and, with other variations of that word, provides information about what is known by a people at a given point in their history. But it is dead and embalmed. An anology would be a skeleton of a saber-toothed cat perfect under glass compared to the living cats with all their grace and all their clumsiness and all their vitality. I wouldn't trade my cat for a museum worth of bones, nor would I want the spoken flexible mutable words of our language to be frozen by some committee.
