Description

When the Bavarian emigrant Levi Strauss started to sell Jeans trousers to traders and golddiggers in 1853 he became an Icon of the history of the West. Due to the destruction of the Levi's sales records in the 1906 San Francsco earthquake we don't really know to what degree Indian traders and their customers went for Denim as well. What we do know, however, is that Indians frequently used blue trade cloth and that nobody appreciated durability more than them. The resultant prairie fashion statement made by the progressive 1860s Cheyenne huntress as shown here foreshadows several stylistic features of glorious times still to come: - It precedes Levi's first women's Jeans by a leasurely 70 years. - Likewise it anticipates Levi's insight of the 1930s that a good looking Jeans is best kept in place not by suspenders but by a belt. - The eternal question of creed concerning wavy bellbottoms vs. slimfit skintight legwear is resolved through the Plains trademark "sidefork": slinky and wavy at the same time. - If you think that today's extra low-cut Jeans are overdone fashion extremism, take a look back in history: been there, seen it, topped it. - Richly adorned "luxury" jeans are a matter of course for our lady. This model features red silk trimmings and abalone shells on the sideforks. - What's more, this model affords a freedom of movement no Euro-American model ever achieved. And - you can't ever rip the bottom of your Jeans - if there aint one ;)

Steeleyes, the character is indeed brandnew: "Naduah" from CDC at 3dcommune.com, 8 "Bucks" for one ... naw, never ewer... you call her "Squaw" and you are Pemmican ;). She's straight from the box, i.e. the V3 morph and the accompanying texture.

Worse, buzzzloz... She bought the cloth from a ripoff Indian trader who had in turn been ripped off before by his supplier Levi's ... Maybe she is just contemplating if this was really worth all the hunting, skinning and tanning she needs to do to break even at the trading post. Beneath the romantic surface - just another fashion victim ;)

Killing animals - shown and created in digital art too - is always a shame in my opinion ! This cannot justified with any serious argument.

Hey, if you had ever tried Buffalo meat you would change your mind ;) Okay, lemme be serious: I guarantee that no Bison, real or virtual was wounded or otherwise hurt while doing this render. The blood was applied in postwork and is therefore entirely cosmetic. I swear!!! Puleeeze believe me!
