SciFi and Fantasy Art: 'Mouse''Mouse was a bull of a woman, tall and broad, with mouse brown hair and warm brown eyes and muscles that could pop your eyes out when she flexed. She was rumored to be of orc blood, but it did not tell in her features.So long as you stayed on her good side you did not have to worry about Grey, her thief friend, sticking you in the back. On the other hand, hurt Grey and... it was all over but the howling. A bar patron once asked a wizard friend of his why they called her Mouse. 'Point and Click,' was all the answer he got, along with an enigmatic smile.'

| 4 Jan 2003 |  Gensai / Barak Skull Crusher of the Rockhide clan | Hey Mouse, your orc is showing. I'll see ya Saturday  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "::checking self out to make sure:: HuH? Where?" | |
| 16 Feb 2003 | Hillary 'Aislin' LaClair | The musculature is done very well.. I'm am most impressed with the hands. I also like her sword, but I wonder why she is holding it by the blade..?  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "one, it makes an intimidating point. two, there is usually about a four inch area just above the quillions that had no edge, or that are less than sharp as the rest. besides, I wanted to show off the details of the sword I used a picture of a lady bodybuilder to draw from (my fav actually)" | |
| 21 Feb 2003 | JennieN | Wow .. I just like her .. the skirt it's *can't find words* It looks so natural !  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "Thank you. I worked hard on achieving the 'scarred up' look to the leather and breast plate." | |
| 9 Apr 2003 | Catriona III of Katakaania | I think I'll try and be on her good side. I might be an immortal and own Dregalaria (Sword of Eagles, uh mortals, honestly, they don't know a thing about Katakaaina)but I still think I'll be onher good side. Immortal means I can't die, not I don't feel pain, so although being knifed in the back by grey wouldn't kill me, it would darn well hurt (I wonder wich is worse sometimes) That sword looks pretty impresive.  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "*hefts blade* thanks. only great sword I know of that can be thrown! And it returns too! Just gotta remember how to catch it!" | |
| 26 Jan 2004 |  Stefan D. Moluf | Very nice, a muscular woman. Now put some useful/warm armor on her. : ) No, no, I'm not here to criticize style. It's very well done.  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "sigh, thank you.
however, considering she is from a warm environs... cool is preferable to warm, and light preferable to bulky. Her skirt is leather, so that is protected. And for the record, her armor is as practical as Roman armor and covers about as much. THere comes a time to choose between protection and mobility. She chose mobility. Being a beserker... well, she really doesn't care if they nick her, they're not going to get the chance to do much more damage." | |
| 28 Jan 2004 |  Stefan D. Moluf | Like I said, I'm just giving you a hard time. : ) I really appreciate that she's powerful, and if she's a beserker, wearing not a whole lot is good for shock-value. However, being a bit of a Roman fanatic myself, I very much beg to differ that a leather skirt is as protective as banded mail with a good level of padding. Also, Roman armor covered the head, shoulders and abdomen with steel.: )
I really like her expression as well. Great job! (just to end on a happy note, I'm not trying to spite you or anything. I really like your works!) | |
| 9 Mar 2004 |  E. Smith | You know, now that you mention it, she reminds me of Venus BloodVine from our adventuring party (the one with Cae) and since "I" know Venus, I have to say this is one tough looking chick. Loving the expression, and band on her arm. I always like splashes of bright colors!  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "thank you. I liked the scratches and nicks best. Mouse, being 7'2" and 350lbs now, not to mention a battlerager who weilds (and THROWS) a great sword one handed (well, she CAN, she often uses both just to get more damage and force) I can only imagine what your Venus is like. (And before anyone cuts my throat about the throwing a greatsword issue, the sword was cursed and magically enhanced to BE thrown and return (though it often aimed for the head when it did so) though it took someone of incredible strength to do so)" | |
| 29 Dec 2005 | Nicki S. | I love it. But that's probobly only because I want to be a Dominatrix someday. I've been through a lot of the artwork here and...well...This one is definately in my top 3. Good job. I encourage you to keep up the good work and inspire people with this kind of stuff. Again, I love it, it's so...controlling you can call it.  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "wow, thanks. I ...never considered her the dom type... but I can see it. She's just a barbarian half/orc..." | |
| 17 May 2006 | Orchomenos | She's very well done. But in my opinion, she doesn't look like an half-orc, perhaps 1/8 orc at most. Perhaps should she have a larger lower jaw, and yellowish or greenish skin? But it's your art and your rules, she might be an half-orc if you say so... "...point and click!" LOL!  Sandra Leigh Wagner replies: "each to his own, she took after her mother more. If you stood her beside the humans of the world she live in, she'd scream orc. It's like my two cats. Ivan (the one in my picture) is 16 pounds and black and white (though he's got a visible white-grey undercoat so he looks more grey). His sister, Lark is only 12 lbs, shorter in the leg and grey and white, though in a similar pattern. If you see them separately, (without a GOOD look) you can't be sure which one you saw. If you see them together you wonder how you could possibly have made that mistake. It's all in the comparison. Besides, in the DM's world, there were grey orcs and pink orcs (weird, but hey)." | |
