Has anyone else checked out the entries in Ecletic's Guild's Valentine Contest? There's some truly cool and some truly whacked stuff in there. Can't wait to hear the decision of the judges..... (wink, hint) =)

i'm partial to the Vishnu & Lakshmi picture, though it's not technically one of the most refined. :^) And i really liked your entry, too (recognized it!). Alas, no pics of 2 girls... we're still invisible, even in Poser... wish i'd known about the contest.

Where is the Vishnu & Lakshmi picture? I have seen other Hinduism-related images on Renderosity: a Shri Sarasvati; also a "dancing Shiva" but with a bad blunder, as the artist showed him as female.

It's on the first page of entries. I think it was the third one in.

Hey!! Thanks for the mention VirtualSite!! It was a super great contest with 77 entries. Now the poor Judges have to make the decisions. We'll be running more contests so just keep watching. :) Irene

shiva was at times portrayed as a female, or a very femmine male.. especially in the later years of art.. Lin

I thought Shiva was male. Admittedly some faces in Hindu art can look "epicene", i.e. partway between male and female type. The matter is complicated by the presence of a woman called Shiva in a videogame that I recently heard of; I don't play commercial videogames. Likely the culprit was not an Indian and guessed Shiva's gender wrong by comparing with European type personal names that end in "-a".
