    If you look at deadlock, there’s a way to do character design without making every character a boring rehash of ‘spectacular body clad in colorful lycra as the American sensors won’t allow naked’.

    It’s that lazy attitude people get mad at, not sexy people.














  • In turkey the bird is named Hindi, after India. In the Netherlands is called after Calicut. In Portugal, it’s called after Peru, however in Arabic it’s an Ethiopian rooster. In Malaysia is called a Dutch bird.

    The explanation is that people through America was India, hence calling it after India a lot (Peru being what Portugese thought was America).

    However the people who first encountered the bird they thought it loaded like a particular woodfoul that was imported from Turkey, calling it a turkey bird.

    India and other Asian countries only know it from European trade, calling it either Turkey, Dutch chicken or something else like fire bird (china).
