  1. I just downloaded the sketching program Alchemy. :eek:

     

    Some sort of goat Trolloc, with and without armour. I used the "mirrored" option, so the halves are identical. If I decide to use one of them as base for a painting I'll try to break the symmetry.

    There's no erase/undo option, so I screwed up the bracers. The cuirass seems to be a bit too tight as well rolleyes.gif Why did I shave off the hips???

  2. It's very fancy and quite expensive :hug: But I think it was worth it. When I compare it to my old Bamboo I'm glad I didn't get another one of those. At first I only wanted a bigger one (from A6 to A5).

  3. I think it's the way Swedish schoolbooks translate tan to sunburn that haunts me still :P

     

    Some new thoughts from my side.

     

    I'm very pale (paler than my friend's vitiligo spots). The body parts that were exposed to the sun when I was a child tan easily and without problems. The rest of my body just goes red and never gets any pigmentation. Is this common? In that case even the second generation of Aiel would do better in the new climate than their parents.

     

    Aiel run a lot, so I suppose long legs and wide nostrils are favoured. If actual breeding for a cause (ultimate warrior?) is taking place the change could happen quickly.

  4. Ah. I thought of tan as a verb rather than a constant adjective :P Because it's quite clear the Aiel are pale beneath their clothes. There have been many scenes mentioning it.

     

    I was rather thinking the blondes have mixed with the red to a point where everyone can tan. But they havent become tan.

  5. Thousands of years is still not enough time to trigger evolution in case SOME are actually born with more pigmentation. I think society has put an end to survival of the fittest in terms of survival in nature. They have clothes and they probably have their ozone layer back by now :P

  6. Nearly all Aiel are redheads, but they don't seem very freckly. Good point. Maybe the ones with the worst skin died :P

     

     

    Tigraine was Andoran = Inbred. Two wrongs don't make a right :P

     

  7. But they'd need new DNA to get different looks, Tosh :oops: Where from? They hate wetlanders, they only tolerate tinkers and sharans don't seem to like intermixing with others. They're bound to be extremely inbred, which, when I think about it, suddenly explains Rand's looks.

  8. :x Rand is so UGLY!

     

    I hate him, and all that, but in my brain he's still not ugly! The way two thirds of his head consists of a bad haircut and those babylike features. The silly face. Aren't his eyebrows supposed to be pretty, according to Avi? If they look like that she has a strange taste.

  9. Gareth cut himself on the sword and died of blood loss and then Thom came and slipped on all the blood while having a heart attack because of the macabre scene. Now Siuan and Moiraine have to comfort each other and move on XD
