Nice work. Some observations.Pericles would be in the agora as you painted him. But this is too much a detail and few people would know how the Athenian assembly looked like and where its relative position to the acropolis would be :roll: :wink: However,you should add a bit of colour on their clothes. Greeks wore hardly only white,like their buildings were hardly white. Pericles was said to have a bold and oblong head, that's why the artists preffered to cover it with a helmet. Come to think of it: Pericles was NOT a warrior,and yet,he's the only one whos bust has a helmet in the fifth century!
In the last painting of the naval battle,although the trirremes are correctly painted,their relative size with the humans is wrong. Trirremes were about 5 m wide on their deck.
