Biker chick -- enh.

Robot girl -- like it a lot.

Contemplation -- here we have the realistic figure/face with realistic background, but I don't like the pose with the hand at the face.

Robot girl is contemplating her next move towards controlling the world.

As for the "Comtemplations ..." think she has finished comtemplating the weather and is now contemplating her near terror. The approaching storm doesn't look that bad even! Does she have a storm complex?

I'd surmise that her concern is less for the actual storm than for some more allegorical storm that may impact her, hence her somewhat distant gaze...

Oh, BS! She's contemplating the conflagration of opposing omens, omens such as:
(1) A hill in the distance seemingly glaciated or inundated by a really huge river about to flood her valley;
(2) The mis-matching of vases within the room's decor;
(3) The fact a tiny gleam of light is brightening one tiny section of an otherwise well-shadowed window shutter;
(4) the use of nested tables -currently un-nested - as dividers when a shoji would have worked just as well;
(5) different style tables holding vases in the same room;
(6) and whether it's getting cold enough to throw some rugs on the hard wood floor.

As for the storm; she's probably thinking he'd better not use that excuse again to get home late.

(2), (4), & (5) - All quite intentional, and symptomatic of the woman's allegorical state of mind.

(3) - Not actually sure what that is; I don't think it's actually a reflection, since the wood material shouldn't be reflecting. But I don' think it should be there, regardless. I will check it out later (and probably just Photoshop it out).

Oh, man; oh, man; you didn't say that; did you? Her state of mind is allegorical? Is that like almost sensible but not quite? Related to reality but not realistic? She could be pensive or blithely unaware or contemplative or shrewdly assessing or manipulatively planning but, she isn't; she's allegorical.

She's a figment of your imagination. For in reality, "she" is nothing but pixels on a screen, so whatever attributes you bring to her emerges from the depth of your own soul... (How about them apples? :D )

Look she is really thinking, How long does Rad want me to stand like this while he fiddles with the pixels...

Considering the position of her legs, she might just be desperately waiting for her turn in the bathroom.

Shhh - you're gonna get me in trouble with the DCU (Digital Characters Union)! :eek:
