Description

Credits: Victoria 4.0 from Daz Studio Hair and accessories by me in adobe photoshop The background was made from a photograph of the semi-arid landscape of the Brazilian Northeast ("Sertão"). Adobe Photoshop postwork. This is a "Cangaçeira", the female version of the "Cangaçeiros", members of extremely dangerous bandit milicias that roamed the semi-desertic Brazilian Northeast in the 1930s. There were few women known to join these outlaws, but they existed, such as Maria Bonita ("Pretty Mary"), who was companion to the most famous Cangaçeiro of all: Lampião. There was also, Dadá, parter of almost as famous Corisco. Thanks everybody for all comments and favorites! Have a great weekend!
