And one more short story of the long agony.
An innocent woman false charged with treachery, forced to strip herself, scourged, condemned to death on the cross, burdened with a beam and crowned with thorns, leaded out of the city, nailed to the harsh wood and left alone. A simple story, everything as usual, nothing especially exciting...

Impressive sketches! And you are very productive. Thank you for sharing.
A very nice selection with a nice mix. I like the different body shapes, and the way they hang and stand on their crosses. The mix of male and female, and clothed and naked is good, the ones standing ready, and the ones with an audience, and I really like the one with a suggestion of wind blowing across the women as they hang crucified, hair and loin cloths flapping, in nice touch.
You give us so many all at once, could you space them out a little bit more?
Are you sure ? I think a lot of members will find it plenty exciting

LOVE this set. Especially the first and last. And the one of the soldier nailing the last gorl's foot. And the one with the woman backward between the men. Great set! Keep drawing!

Somewhere on the borderlands of the Roman Empire, on the top of the hill... loneliness, peace and silence... I feel free like a bird... at least I am far from the civilization and human affairs... only the blue sky around me... the sun warming my exposed skin and the wind caressing my naked body... and a flock of vultures flying nearer and nearer...

I know I've said it before, but I love these sets showing the whole story. Especially the stripping!

I really don't feel like I can properly comment on all of these and do them justice - amazing work, Andy! So much to love: standing naked between men in loincloths before the nailing, waiting with hands tied behind their backs and all their clothing strewn on the ground, loincloths slipping off as they hang, whippings, strippings, crucified backward so we're all staring at her bum, view from the back of her bum as she hangs between men... I can't even get to all of it. Incredible! Keep drawing!

Well, I am deeply impressed with the fact that there are some historical sources confirming that some kind of impaling with sharp stick or the peg forced into victim's anus (or vagina) were really used, though it sounds terrible for us if we remember that the crucifixion was an official court judgement execution, in the majesty of the law and performed often in public.
This kind of impalation require very experienced executioner. I suppose that the length of the stick and the level of it's top point should be skilfully balanced to not let it's tip slide out of his/her anus or her vagina while the victim was lifted up, standing on nailed feet (sketch #1), and in the same time to not let the sharp end to penetrate too deep while victim's hanging loose on the hands (sketch #2 and 3), because too deep penetration could cause too serious wounds and a massive internal bleeding which would hasten the death.

Roman troops marching on in return to their barracks after destroying a Celtic oppidum. Rebel Galls are killed in the battle and their chieftain was slain too with his sons, but his wife survived... for a short time only - after his dead she was worthless for the Romans. Now, stripped naked and raped, and hammered to the wood, she could no longer be a lady and keep her self-control.

Thanks! I am satisfied with the result too. I used my own photo silhouettes of the workers and transformed it into the line drawing with IrfanView, then add the details and colours and insert into the background with Ms Paint. Simple tools for a simple fool like me.
