I saw this over at DeviantArt. Don't know who the girl is. Don't know who the artist is. I have no personal connection to these people in any way. I just saw it and thought, "DANG!!"

It's just way too awesome not to share ... although not quite work friendly enough to post the image directly.

The image is >>here<< (http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2011/203/2/a/dark_elf__witch_by_i_tavaron_i-d41ae7z.jpg).

The actual DeviantArt page that holds the image is >>here<< (http://i-tavaron-i.deviantart.com/art/Dark-Elf-Witch-244029311).

I don't like to post DeviantArt pages directly without the disclaimer that DeviantArt pages contain ads, and sometimes those ads don't always "play well with others" if you know what I mean. Direct links to images though should be fine.

A top notch reconstruction, especially as this is the piece of artwork they used as reference to the costume.

The link should work hopefully, I pulled it straight from my fav folder on my DA account.

You may well find yourself short of a few teeth, or singing in Soprano. Something tells me she's probably heard loads of similar comments.

Yeah, what Build said, because Witches worship Khaine. :p

Very nice costume. As well as matching the art that inspired it almost exactly, it is also quite similar to this figure by Guild of Harmony Miniatures:

I work for "corporate America," which anymore only exists as multinational entities, and never in 25 years have images of women in anything other than business suits been considered acceptable. Hell, I once got a chewing out for having >>this<< (http://absinthefiend.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/absinthe_robette-highrez.jpg) image showing in a calendar I had on my wall.

Was it the alcohol or the vaguely erotic nature which got you into trouble?

It was in a Privat Livemont calendar, and most of the images had at least a passing affiliation with alcohol. This was the only image that caused a stir. It never went as far as "trouble" per se. The boss asked me calmly to take the calendar down, and I didn't feel any strong pull to fight him on it.

As for whether or not it was puritanical ... well here's what I've observed of the cultural divide between Europe and America (having traveled through both) when it comes to sex. Europeans think Americans are prudes. Meanwhile Americans (many) see Europeans as perverts. Now, objectively, I can understand how a buggering sexual deviant would think anyone less screwed up than them is a prude. Likewise, I could see how a knee-bound flagellating repressive could shake a shivering finger at everyone less hung up than them, also. So which is right, and who is truly sexually aberrant? Well, if you have a pulse, you are not qualified to answer. ;)

From my own personal perspective, in general, I think way too many people spend way too much time thinking about what other people are doing (or aren't doing) with their naughty bits.

But given most of the population is wanting other people's naughty bits to interact with their own naughty bits in some way, it seems only right and proper to give at least passing consideration to what others are doing with their naughty bits.

Ah ... I make a distinction between "thinking about" and "plotting." ;)

Revisiting the Privat Livemont calendar incident, the "chewing out" I indicated I received was more implicit than actual. With distance my memory of the incident has taken on a bit more of an edge (partly because that particular boss and I developed something of a loathing for each other), but upon reflection, at the time it wasn't as dramatic.
