Great stuff Cuprum - especially the clothing styles and religious buildings - amazing how similar in style to Tibet especially the monks.

Whoah, very nice find, thanks you very much!

Do you know if these pics are still copyright protected?  8)
I would love to use some of them in the eventually released "Victory Decision: Back of Beyond" book...  ;)

Alas, I do not know whether to keep still right holders at these photos.
