Bunting! Of course! lol he is cute isn't he? Thank you! -
thank you! -
It's quite likely then. -
Thank you! The background on this one is one of the ones I wasn't sure about, but I think it turned out alrilght.
-
Thank you! I love the colors in this one (reds and oranges and yellows together is one of my favorite color schemes lol but you wont see me wearing it)
-
I'm honestly not sure if the two are related, but I would assume they are since they are both "blackbirds". I don't know though.
-
I love this picture. It's one of my favorites that I've done so far.
-
Ok, so I just drew this last night and right now I can't remember what it is. -
It was colorful so I drew it. We certainly don't have any of these where I live! Pantagathus has informed me that it is a painted bunting.
-
One of my favorites
-
Again, I have no idea what kind of bird this is If I were to do this one again I would have moved the whole thing up, instead of having the bottom cut off...but I still like it. -
Another one from my other gallery, moved to keep them all together -
I think that's a scarlet tanager anyway -
This one was in my other gallery. I decided to put all of my bird images together -
This one was done a while ago, it's not my favorite but I still really like it. -
I've honestly forgotten what type of bird this is lol it's been a while since I did this one. Sorry about the poor quality of the picture, I'm not very good with my camara yet apparently and the art was in a plastic sleeve when I took it. -
Starflower (Borago officianalis)

OOOOO BLUE!!! Sorry, i love blue. It's really beautiful (will now become obsessed) -
I'm working on it guys. (YAY for study hall!!)
-
belly-dance/martial art?? wha?? -
Hmm...I guess I'll have to go in depth on this subject in my report when I finally get around to writing it (I have two study halls every day in school starting tomorrow, so lots of free time!) I find it interesting to note that the ancient pagan gods (of any pantheon it seems) had to deal with pretty much day-to-day matters just as if they were humans, as well as humans looking to them for help. So the development of the gods would depend largely on everyday things, climate and weather patterns specifically, but also some other things. This would cause the beliefs to vary, possibly even from one part of Rome or Greece to the other (of course once Rome was pretty much unified this would likely change however individual "parts" would still retain some individuality of religion. Greece, since it was seperated into city-states and not really unified, would remain much more individual). Celtic gods have a distinctly "Celtic" feel about them, Roman have a Roman "feel" and characteristics, etc. Also, different sects of society had slightly differing religions (this is where the "cults" come in, such as the Cult of Mithras)

I still think it's inaccuracies are quite amusing, though for historical merit it's worthless. Fun to make fun of, and even enjoyable as a story, as long as you keep in mind that it's worthless as far as history is concerned.

Brigantian/Valerian combat casualty.

you posted this just before I got home from school apparently...and I always check here when I get home. Could have been a "waisted" or "front loaded" blade, though if it is in fact a slash a likely culprit also could be the falcatta (is that what those things are called? Greeks used them) of course the location of the skull could rule that out. I don't know about the entrenching tool, though if it's anything like certain tools I'm familiar with (sort of like a pic axe but with one end flattened like a chisel...again I forget what they are called...adz maybe?) that would also be a likely culprit. Me, I'm fond of a good old sharpened spade, but chances are a spade could only do that sort of damage if the victim was lieing on the ground when it happened. Also notice that it isn't a clean cut...which seems to suggest something very heavy, but not necessarily very sharp. almost like it was hit unevenly, or cut with something that has a groove in it. -

You know...the two cracks makes it rather confusing...though it must have been a very heavy and sharp (or just extremely heavy) blade to cut through the skull like that. My guess would be either a stab with something (maybe when the guy was on the ground?) or an axe. Assuming the cut on the front of the skull was the death blow, if it were in fact a slash by gladius or other sword, the man weilding it was left handed. But then, I'm no expert lol. -
Latin dictionary! Good one! I can't believe no one else thought of it yet!

Yea...good luck. ::grumbles something about stupid developers and their lawyers::
