What better way to find out if the character you are working on looks like the nationality you are shooting for than to ask ;-) Soooo...where would you guess this lady is from...Hmmmmmmmmm ;-)

At first I would have said Polynesia. But the lips are too large for that.

Italy? Spain? She's very nice wherever she's from. Marque

I dunno.. she looks like someone from Guam... or maybe it's just that everyone I've ever met from Guam (all two of them) look like that... or at least from some South Pacific island...

I agree. I lived in Hawaii for over 15 yrs. She looks Polynesian to me. Maybe even a mix of Polynesian/Portuguese.

She look that she is of a mixed race. I do agree on the PolynesianAsiatic but i would say +Southern European


Merlin posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 1:30 PM

I'd say central american (Honduras maybe), like mixture of mayan and spanish bloods

Having lived some years in Tahiti ( and having brought back a beautiful " vahine maohi " with me :) I would say you're pretty close Vairesh ! Just something about the eyes that does not look polynesian for me, but anything else is great, great, great ( especially the hair, but you are a master at that ;). if you need some mateial or polyynesian names, I got plenty of them :) congratulations joelegecko

Is this supposed to be Aishwarya Rai? PapaBlueMarlin was asking me to morph her a few months back... Message225179.jpg
Message360174.jpg I wouldn't say Polynesian. I'd be more likely to look near India, Persia or Egypt. The straight hair makes me wonder if a native American tribe was the intent; definitely not Navajo or Hopi, I can tell that much.

whoa.....this is odd.......very much so......if her eyes were smaller, she would, within a hair's breadth, be a carbon copy of my fiance....she's a Cherokee, so perhaps native american is your answer ;)


datastream365 posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 3:14 PM

SHE is definetyly indian. she looks a lot like the picture duanemoody put up, so my vote goes to indian


duanemoody posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 3:32 PM

I wanted to say Cherokee, but I don't live in that part of the country and couldn't say definitively.


Marque posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 3:41 PM

lol...guess we'll find out when you're ready to sell her. Marque


leather-guy posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 3:57 PM

Complexion & eyes remind me of Tia Carerra. I believe she's polynesian/asian mix. Aside from the eyes, she looks a lot like my Ex-fiance, she was mixed Scottish/German/SouthAmerican Indian. What were you going for?


DIMENSION_X posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 4:00 PM

She is a Indian Film Star (Bollywood)....still need some work on her !!:)


gryffnn posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 4:48 PM

Canadian or British young woman. You really can't tell until she talks. Just lovely, Vairesh.


Lucy_Fur posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 5:31 PM

I could also suggest Greek/Sicilian or a Hispanic/Europian mix. :) Perhaps even Slavic - not all their women are light-skinned. leather-guy - Tia Carerra, is half Filipino, half Caucasian (don't know exactly what country there). Like moi - half Filipino, half German. ;)


melanie posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 8:29 PM

I would say, by the render, Native American. Melanie


movida posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 11:08 PM

I'd say Native American also, and very nice too s


VirtualSite posted Tue, 09 October 2001 at 11:51 PM

So I suppose what were saying is that shes Polynesian/Italian/Greco/Native American with possibly some Hawaiian on her mothers side and perhaps some Indian and Canadian on her fathers. Whew!


Marque posted Wed, 10 October 2001 at 12:04 AM

Don't forget her Swedish aunt....lol Marque

Hi Folks! Her race is Human (according to my Vulcan, Klingon, Romulan, Kardassian, and Ferengi associates). But seriously, it's clear everyone's individual experiences are framing our respective definitions of who/what Vairesh's beautiful lady is. Maybe the solution is simply to assign her an identity and let psychological anchoring brand our perceptions of her ("Oh yeah! She DOES look like..."). Peter (Dr Zik)
