Quote:My latest drawing:
Flavius Aetius, in [DEL]all his glory[/DEL] color.
This is my second and much better attempt to draw the "Last True Roman of the West."
The skin came out a better color than last time, and I spent a week working on that stupid hand. Eventually I just put a sword in it.
Unfortunately the colored pencil messed up a lot of the detail in the tunic and cloak, I tried to salvage it to no avail. DAMN YOU PURPLE!!!
The shoes are a combination of ones from the Saint Maggiore Mosaic, Vindolanda, and a little influence from the much earlier Hod Hill.

Nice one Even. I like the fibula, with the big jewel.
