Thanks all -
@ Beast - Glad you got that from the PJ - Even though the female city Martian doesn't represent Dejah Thoris, I was inspired by Lynn Collins' movie version (Wish they'd make a sequel
) - more of a brawler then a bauble, and a bit more between her ears than the book version.
@ Answer is 42 - The combination of your username and praise for Belgians made me think of this:
http://hitchhikers.wikia.com/wiki/Belgium. I suppose it is a little wacky (It's VSF after all!
)... the setting is a mash up of quite a few things: Space 1889, ERB's Barsoom, with a bit of Call of Cthulhu thrown in.
I used the ideas on this page as a springboard...
http://www.heliograph.com/trmgs/trmgs4/cthulhu1889.shtml then tweaked it and added to it.
Going to try and do a few more figs today while I watch the footy - just got to saw the bases off them :/
