Let me know how acceptable is this with relation to rule VI. I find absolute "no nudity" bit constricting. I know we do not want top submission to be just erotically pleasing with no other value, but it might be overkill.

I don't know about the mods but having a degree in fine art, I don't see artistic nudity to be the same as "nudity" in general. After about 5 minutes in figure drawing, you forget that the person in front of you is nude and it just becomes a thing to draw with it's own challenges as any other still life object. I suspect that the rule was originally intended to cover tasteless nudity but that opens up a whole can of worms about "obscenity".
While at the same time, I have to ignore the rule and sort of guess it is not relevant in this circumstance. We should have rules that can be actually universally applied.
