Description


For the record I should note that I find the following things to be contemptible: Slavery, sex-slavery, forced prostitution, people trafficking, sexual exploitation, speculative investment capitalism, modern stock markets, the modern "Joint-Stock Corporation". That said, the beauty of science fiction is that you can always play the "What If?" game. In this case, what if we took the horrors of slavery, added the vocabulary of modern capitalism, and then added an undercurrent of liberation through self-exploitation (the same way some native tribes in North America have been able to make a living by opening casinos and playing off the white man's greed). In the context of the Star Trek universe, I also thought it would be humourous to think about the ways the Ferengi (a species who promote profits more than morals) would attempt to break through the cultural barrier in their interactions with humans. In this case, here's an attempt at creating an academic/financial journal that could be sold to both Humans and Ferengi alike (in their minds at least). In terms of the image itself there are a few things I'm not happy with (blurry eye brows, the colour scheme of the set), but all in all it came out alright. I'd like to thank HollywoodBest for letting me try out the "Anima Suit" outfit for this one, it's a fun little piece. Finally, I'd like to thank those who helped to put me up on the Art Chart this week, I definitely appreciate the support. [Comments Are Always Welcome]

I like your pinup picture, the green doesn't seem too over the top considering what your trying to convey. Your write up on the evils of Orion Slave Girl Ownership is pretty funny, though, and although I share many of your contempts, I think this was a very entertaining image. Nice work.
