I need an old seer floating head for my animations, but the software doesn't support just the head.
So I had to make the whole old seer.
The head looks a bit "long" from that angle, but he is in fact the mask on the upper left.
When you convert the masks to 3D, some commonality seems to emerge.
The "look" of the old seers.
When we get more into Silent Knowledge, we'll get more "live views" of the old seers.
All that I've seen are very old and very wrinkly.
But my current software won't age people scanned from a mask, using the normal methods.
I might have to purchase an "old" set of slider bars.

Genetically speaking, there hasn’t been enough time for physical traits to evolve that much in Central America.
Or anywhere really, barring multiple generations of interracial breeding.
As long as you stick to imagery recorded of pure (enough!) blooded tribal peoples in the Olmec territory, it should be accurate.
But finding images that don’t have an Alamy watermark 🙄
The picture has the Olmec ears.
So does Cholita.
I saved it, in case I can fit it onto a 3D head.
I have a face that appears in the current animation, but it's a flat picture.
I need a 3D one so that it "emerges" accurately.
I had to buy a severed head and I'm undoing all the gore.
I like that one because it's front on.
But I kept the other too.

I'll be needing a little village for some cartoons.
Where one at Dance Home goes back in time.

Not very "accurate", but I have no idea where to get an "old seer" head.
I made this one from that picture.
I'll have to tweak the neck so it fades away instead of just ending.
I see old seers often enough to know everyone else will to when they reach SK.
And it fits with what don Juan said.
And at the end, Carlos said he was in fear that their mood would swallow him up.
They don't behave like inorganic beings, for those who are familiar with that.
They're stable and animate at full speed.
I think this one in particular, could be useful. I also like this one the most.
It's older.
Soo pre olmec? Well i didn't know that.
You think sorcery was different before the olmecs? I would make sense thar in a way society ruins the motivation to learn real sorcery
Oops.
I kind of knew that would be misinterpreted.
I meant, it's an older man represented in the carving.
And that's good!
All the masks I had were young men.
NONE of the old seers I've seen was young.
Meanwhile, the "Olmecs" only go back as far as anthropologists named them for.
It just means "Rubber People". Like in Star Trek, Next Generation.
Chakotay was supposed to be a descendant of the "Rubber Tree" people. Who are then portrayed as shapeshifting aliens visiting earth long ago.
Fortunately, the Olmec cities found are from before "the Buddha".
So we can ditch that delusional Dzogchen claim of theft by Carlos.
But they're only regarded as being 3423 years old if you go by what's been dug up.
When we know for a fact they go back 8000 years both because don Juan gave that as the nearest date of creation of our sorcery, saying maybe even 10,000 years old.
Like the Luiseno on the coast of California. They're at least 10,000 years old.
The death defier who took over Carol Tiggs is 8000 years old.
I suspect they'll dig up more and more over time, finding the ancestors of those who built the Olmec cities.
And whether they call them "proto-Olmecs" or not, will depend more on politics than reasoning.
I've already seen reactions to our using the term "Olmec" in wikipedia modifications.
Someone modified the text that goes along with "The Wrestler" statue to say nearly all anthropologists agree it's a wrestling move.
When in fact, there's an article from the 1930s-1950s saying it's likely sorcery.
Someday it would be interesting to investigate who did that modification to the article.
Same person who scrubbed the Star Wars origin page of the writers admitting it's from Carlos, and added the claim it likely comes from Buddhism?
We have that Star Wars writer article.
It would be interesting to see what happens if that's added in, along with citing the reference.
My prediction: It'll be gone in a week.
I'll have to have someone in a cartoon reading it, so we can make sure it's not lost.
This kid had the facial features, and build, seen in many Olmec statues. RIP Juan Luis Laguna… There are other images of him out there that you could use.
Too young for what I'm after right now, but I'll save him as a potential "youngling".
We do need to show how the old seers taught, versus how the new, and then explain neither can be done anymore.
