Thanks to all for looking, for your comments and faves!

Because it literally took me a couple of clicks, I thought I'd show you guys two more variants on the Protector Mask based on my Protector of Iron. On the left, we have a golden Mask of Fire, since everyone loved the look of this year's fire masks, and on the right is a Mask of Steel, because it sounds cool.

This is a special series, both for what it represents and a step toward an adventure of a new style. My first series from this set of images was done in black and white. Spontaneously and in parallel I saw a color version, more painterly. This is that vision.

In this series I hope to highlight individuals audacity of character and purpose, illustrated by its vibrant and radiant displays. Everyone came to me as being perfectly beautiful and I want to share some of those moments. Homage to all protector spirits out there as your activities and intent are noble, to work for the benefit of others. With hearts tranquil and wrathful openness, intent is grounded in the wisdom of interdependence and expressed in joyous prayer.

Putnam County, TN

The Leadership Putnam Class of 2002 coordinated a Quality of Life project that honors local and national law enforcement officers, firefighters, emergency management technicians, paramedics and military personnel. After the events of September 11, 2001, many citizens within the community wanted to show their support for our local protectors who put their lives at risk everyday for our safety. This mural was painted by a local artist and is on the corner of Cedar and W. Broad streets.

Protector, guardian, warrior. We are all of these when we take a stand against Unweaver.

I think that Fantasy Faire is about protection and about memory -- we raise money to help end cancers, and we remember all those that we have lost along the way. Alia Baroque was inspired by this when he created Valhalla, the Fallen Gods-sponsored sim at the Fairegrounds. And appropriately, there have been a number of Norse-inspired outfits and poses that I've come across at the Fairegrounds.

Today I get to show you the very well-detailed Amnerystunic from .Viki.. Amnerys is perfect for a Viking or other medieval timeframe or roleplay. It comes in 8 different animal hide options, so you're sure to find something that suits your look. I really liked the Dark Goat!

I needed a little something for my arms, so I found these wonderful bracers from the Breeze outfit from Blue Moon Enterprises. My other pieces here you've seen before: the Bow of Galadhrim from Unity Maxim, Mizu's Raider Hatchet, and the Runar boots from R3D Studio

Keeping the law running ,

atleast a little bit.

Inspired by Chef' , peco and Mc'lovin! :)

I said it was hard, not impossible.

Pretty pleased with how this guy came out. The primary goal was to use parts from all of the protectors. Ended up giving him an extra set of arms.

i took this image at least a month ago when i was visiting sarah ann loreth. i really struggled with these images after looking at them at home. what was their point? were they sexual even though that was not my intention? i finally decided to just let it go and post one. models are angela and summer, two really wonderful girls. the makeup/styling was all angela, summer and sarah and is inspired by the paintings of sylvia ji :)

I have to give my apologizes for new re-post your lovely picture but I had to do it, receiving a correction from my friend from India. We respect her opinion and will follow her advice to keep our picture to be more right and true as it should be. We appreciate support and wise advices in national images as this is much more important to give a right view and message than show nice advertising (just keep it wise).

Always try to right search and ask people from other countries when you create national images you don't much familiar with. Country residents will help you with pleasure and you will receive a new knowledge and make them happy!

Thank you! and please, give us your love again!

These geese are pretty adamant about protecting their nest.

I drove by it again a few days ago and they looked as if they'd left the area.

I'll have to check again this week.

Last year there was a pair of Sandhill Crane's that had a nest here.

The wreck of the HMCS Protector at Heron Island. In the foreground the bund wall maintains the Islands man made harbour.

Now, I'm pretty sure that this has been done already. This is, of course for Alieraah's Protector of Junk Food contest.

I wanted to make it transform into a snowcone, but I found it too difficult to do while keeping it good looking.

Of course, there are some syrup pumps on his back, because why not.

I really like the samurai aesthetics on Tahu, so I tried my hand at it on a protector-sized MOC.
