Description
Mary gives the order for her ship to set sail towards Margiana's homeland and they are blessed with fine weather and fair winds.
That evening, the crew relax by torchlight after the dramatic events of the day. Margiana puts on a display of dancing for them as an expression of her gratitude for being rescued not just once, but twice, and the friendship shown to her by Mary and all of the crew.
Everyone is entranced by her dancing which is an exotic style that none of them have seen before.
** To Be Continued **
A quiet interlude between the action! I needed to re-make Margiana's skirt as a dynamic prop to get the pose and feel that I wanted for this. Caused a few problems but I think it was worth it in the end.
Thanks to everyone for all the recent feedback - I was so delighted to make the Artists ArtCharts this week!! Any feedback on this current effort is most welcome too.
Thanks for looking and following the story, Phil.

Wow Phil!!!Really nice indeed!!!And congrats for your artist ArtChats entry!!!
Wonderful image, great posing!!
A lovely flow to that dress and all those figures. Must have been a bear to render.. Excellent.........
Beautiful image and right choice of turning the skirt to a cloth prop to work right! :) My only objection would be the size of the back figures..they seem a bit out of proportion to the steering wheel and the barell that both seem way too huge for their height but I can see why you did that in order to add depth..my own would be to add a light on the floor boards to keep the depth without having to rescale the elements! Way to go on the Artists Charts too! Have no doubt you'll stay there as long as you keep up this beautiful story! :)
Another nice entry in the series. I also think you have a small scaling problem with this one. Also, something seems amiss with the light too, but can't put my finger on it. It really doesn't matter though, because this story is so brilliantly engaging. I agree, calm transitions are good breaks for an action-oriented storyline such as this. Great job!
