Description Well, ok, it really isn't a Valkyrie, but who cares, I think it makes a good title. Originally done for a contest for the french magazine Game Development Magazine, which never went beyond the first issue u_u... Now you can buy prints and so on from the french publisher Colexia.

There's not a finger to point at that picture if you ask me but the title. Valkyrie, well I'm not sure it's the first thing I'll think about when I see this. But then again, I might never have found it if you didn't name it that way.

It's pretty much asian style ain't it? = )

I've actually already said this, I think : originally, this piece had no title, but was a character design for a contest for a video game magazine, and a friend of mine used this pick to make a 3D model. He named it Valkyrie (don't ask me why... probably just the idea of the warrior maiden I guess), title I decided to use afterwards, eventhough it didn't perfectly fit .

Anyway, think about RenΓ© Magritte's painting : "This is not a pipe". I've already used crappier and more out-of-context titles XD.

Just thought it was a bit funny coz Valkyrie wasn't the first thing I thought of. But I propably wouldn't have found it if that wasn't the name.

You might have a point there. I've been having the ideer of calling all my pictures by numbers becourse that wouldn't make any mental pictures before even seeing the picture. But then again. Wouldn't it be a but nameless?

I believe that its missing something if there's no title :0. Even a stupid one is better, makes you laugh or doubt, or whatever. You get a reaction XD

"mother-in-law" est l'equivalent de belle-mere en frenchi?

Et pourquoi Londres? J'etais de Fevrier a Juin a Wakefield en Angleterre pour Team17, mais je suis depuis debut juillet au Japon a Tsu (voir google map...)

Bref, je te tiens au courant!

Moi je te fais pas de bisou car ma femme est japonaise donc ca craint, je vais encore me faire engueuler si je parle encore de bisou a la frenchi pour dire bonjour haha...!

Bonne continuation a toi Tiamate!

Mdr, t'es mariΓ© maintenant? Sache qu'en ces temps de mondialisation, il faut prΓ©server les spΓ©cificitΓ©s culturelles nationales. En conclusion, soit chauvin : fait des bisous XD!

I really like the flow of the fabric and the well-placed highlights on the metal.

Ah... I see, I didn't think something of this caliber would be eliminated first round. Lol.

Sorry about that. It would have been fun, ne!

Very neat looking, but it has a more Aztec/Central American feel than it does Scandanavian.
