One of the main inspirations for
writing a Panther Girl novel (I don't really count 'Panther Girl of
Gor' as that was only nominally involving the panther girls) is a
series of pictures that used to exist on the Deviant Art site by
'tasastock'.
tasastock was a UK based girl called
Claire who used to take the most amazing photos of action poses (of
herself I think) for artists to use in producing composite pictures.
These photos were always taken against a white background to make it
easy to cut and lift the action pose.
One series of photos she did was an
amazing costumed set of poses as a forest huntress and I thought wow,
these would make amazing panther girl pictures. Sadly I only saved a
handful to my computer thinking they would always be around on the
Internet and then in late 2017 Claire decided to shut up shop and
removed all her photos so i'm missing quite a few.
These days I don't assume resources
will always be available on the Internet, which is one of the reasons
why I have copies of the map of Gor and the language dictionary on my
site as well as the original sites.
Claire's 'huntress' series of photos
were incredible and I've posted a montage of five of them here as
examples of what the PoV panther girl protagonist will look like in
my yet to be named panther girl story.
You can see why men like to hunt
panther girls, can't you? ;)
Thank you Emma, for sharing some of your sources of inspiration here and elsewhere. I was delighted to learn that Kassa was based on an actual person. I found myself wondering how you came up with the ideas for a lot of your material ( besides having a wonderful imagination and talent, of course ).
