Title: A Delicate Question about Botocudo...
Post by: Jagannath on November 14, 2018, 05:15:32 PM
Hi Folks,

Thinking about painting up some of Copplestone's excellent Botocudo - I want to practice some skin tones - but what's going on in the genital area?

Google suggests they may well wear sheaths, but that's doesn't look like quite what's sculpted, but neither does the lack of detail ( o_o ) suggest that they're just nude. What a weird thing to type!

I should add that especially when you compare to his Tupi, which are clearly just nude.

Difficult to say with the way they're sculpted. I think I painted mine a couple different ways, some nude, some with warpaint (maybe the sheath is painted lol) and some I sculpted a loincloth.

Thanks both.

Yeah - the sculpt  just doesn't look like either does it. Hmmmm. Maybe I'll just find some other scantily clad folks.

Maybe if you live in the Amazon - it's going to be in the mid-30's (Fahrenheit) here tomorrow.
