Themed Characters: Ancient Egypt

We had to come up with 4 time-period themed characters that will roll over for storyboard and layout assignments. I love ancient Egypt so I had to choose it, even though I figured everyone would choose it (doesn't seem like they have though!)

I designed this guy based on pictures of Egyptian crocodile statues I found
I read during my research of ancient Egypt that the higher status you were, the more transparent your clothes are. I made Kanila's dress transparent for this reason, also to give her some sexy OOMPH.
This guy turned out to be my favorite, based on Anubis, the god of death obviously.
Bidi is an ibis, which I found out were revered birds in Egypt because of their connection with the ibis headed god of scripture Thoth.
Critiques welcome!
