SciFi and Fantasy Art: Daughter of the Minga

Catherine Moore wrote tons of short novels about Mars.. One of them was called 'Daughter of the Minga' in which an horror story was told about the Minga, an impregnable fortress where the most beautiful women were literrally bred and trained. The Daughters of the Minga were reknown for their beauty, musical talents and dance skills.. Of course, the truth was a different story ... Anyway, i wanted to draw something funny, very elongated, non human.. I was more looking for graphic design than anatomy, for sure :) Just for fun ;p

9 Dec 2003	Matthew	Loading... A wonderful picture and it's always great to find another C.L. Moore fan! Will you ever do anything else based on her stories? The Shambleay maybe? Or Northwest Smith at the Tree of Life? Sophie 'SoMK' M.Klesen replies: "You know, I'm really happy to see another fan as well As a matter of fact, I've always wanted to illustrate C.Moore's novels and especially Shambleau or the Northwest Smith other stories.. Bah, I'll find time here and there. The one I'd REALLY love to illustrate nonetheless, is not a Moore's story.. it's a Leigh Brackett's trilogy : Skaith. What an amazing book !! Thanks for cool comments "
10 Dec 2003	Matthew	Loading... You're going to do some drawings of the Erik John Stark stories too? Man, I need to come back to this galery often! I love Brackett her stories always make me think of the best elements of Edgar Rice Burroughs and Ray Bradbury combined!

23 Dec 2005	Yarg!	Loading... Hey! It looks great. What did you use to do it with? I love the color.
28 Dec 2005	Amanda Beth Conrad Powell	Loading... Wow! This looks awesome. And I am so intrigued about "The Daughters of the Minga", yet as much as I look, I can't find anything about it. I've looked under C.L. Moore, and I've looked up the title itself. I would love to know more about this, can you help me out?
