Why thank you. That one actually took me several months to do too. The original idea was to have her walking up to an alter with one of those little guys atop standing with a knife, ready for the sacrifice and a Large Snake like tiki statue behind the alter...like somehting outta Indiana Jones. Didn't work out though. This is the result of the 3rd attempt to come up with a working background for it. The torches themselves were one of the last things I did on it, because I wasn't too sure of what I wanted them to look like. Tried this design, and it worked. If you look really close on the right side of her with the other little guys there, you'll see Paul Stanley, Gene Simmons, Ace Frehley and Peter Chris Masks. As well and Mac Tonite, and Batman thrown in there.
My next one is her laying on a nech with Tiki mugs around her. Should prove fun. I'll post it up when I'm done.

As far as the Models go....well, I actually got the poses from a little Swimsuit calendar from SI. Tweaked some details here and there to make it my own, but it's the reference I've been using for this project.
