Thank you for your kind reply.I'm pleased that you would consider doing an image.As I mentioned I am happy to see in the picture whatever suits you.My preferences would be that the slaves' hair would likely be long & a little unkempt.Roman copper coins were marked "SC" standing for "Senatus Consulto"-ie the "Senate decreed" or "the senate having been consulted".If the girls had "SC" marked on their left upper arms it would indicate that they are owned by the state & have been condemned (no doubt unjustly) to toil in chains for life.Under the circumstances in which they are confined it is likely that they would be dirty but realism isn't everything & I suspect that dirt would detract from their beauty.I expect that you would not be able to indicate a fair price for the commission until you have thought a little about the composition but let me know when you have some idea

I wonder whether you consider doing 3D pictures on commission?

Why not? Depends on what you have in mind.

Guten tag! I like particularly your dedicated smith at work,your coffle & the bounty hunter.These all suggest the use of slaves, permanently chained, deployed in numbers to undertake forced labour. Though flexible I prefer scenes set in Roman times. My preference is for work pulling the oars of galleys but turning heavy millstones, hewing rock in quarries, building roads, bridges & aqueducts would all be interesting to see. The slaves' wrists & ankles are all encircled by manacles. Preferably gangs of slaves are all shackled together. Their chains (bearing in mind the period in which the pictures are set) are of black iron (not shiney, rostfrei steel). The slaves wear ragged skirts about their hips & nothing else (apart from their chains). Their figures are of natural proportions. Their overseers are also young women dressed soberly in tunics & wearing Roman military type sandals. Though the oveseers might use their whips only sparingly the backs of the slaves nonetheless over their long years of servitude inevitably become permanently disfigured with numerous long, pale scars. And their wrists & ankles become stained from constant abrasion by their manacles. Something like that but naturally it's what you would like to do that governs what you do

Hello ascoli,
thanks a lot for the elaborate comment.
As you might have noticed i do not prefer a particular time or setting for my images, although the middle aged or fantasy based images are in vast majority. Whatever, just as you i slightly prefer the '
So, if i may, i would like to take your precise description as a guideline for an image. The most challenging point might be adding the dirt, scars and stains.
