This is 1/7 of a multimedia assignment I am doing on the 7 Deadly Sins. I am trying to depict each sin in the manner or style of a different era of the 20th century. 1930s - 90s.

1930s - Lust
1940s - Envy
1950s - Gluttony
1960s - Greed
1970s - Wrath
1980s - Vanity
1990s - Sloth

This is Envy in the 1940s. The colour of Envy is (obviously) green, so I shot the photo outside, with the garden and foliage. The punishment for envy is to be thrown into a vat of boiling oil, so I chose the font "Bleeding Freaks". I should have let Charlie sit in on the photo shoot, because the animal associated with Envy is the dog. :XD:
I chose Envy for the 1940s because most people were forced to make signifigant sacrifices in regard to their lifestyles because of World War II. This would have spurred envy amongst families, neightbours and nations.
If you watch Pearl Harbour, you can see the same hairstyle on a few women. The dress Tallulah wears was my Mum's first wedding dress. The two people in the background are my cousin Elisha and my boyfriend Michael (~Micklez)

Photo taken by me, photo manipulated by me.
Modelled by my wonderful sister Tallulah.

xD I know, it was SO hard for her to get the right expression! I had to take her into the bathroom and show her what expression I wnated so she could see in the mirror what she was doing.
It was really funny xD;

AHHHH! That's me in the back. You know what I think about these pictures - I tell you how awesome they are all the time. Therefore I don't have to tell you here that you're fantastic and I love you to pieces.

Hehe, that's so cool. I never got over the awesome borders you've been using on the seven sins =P.
The green on Michael overpower's Tallulah's clothing a bit, but :shrug:. Those 'pearls' are really really powerful (in a good way).

:D Thanks. I wasn't sure about Michael or Elisha's clothes, or about having so much green in the foliage but I kept them anyway.
