That is a good question. As someone living in a cold place, I think we should usually postpone crucifixions until the weather is mild so victims can last a longer time and give a good show and the crowd is larger. Of course, the most heinous of criminals may not get that niceties. If we really need to crucify someone RIGHT NOW, we could lit a fire next to the cross to keep them warm.Im just curious, we always see depictions of a woman carrying the cross naked and barefoot in nice warm weather depictions, im curious what about in winter?? Would a woman still have to carry her cross naked and barefoot in the winter time despite the snow and ice everywhere?

My fantasies revolve around non-lethal crucifixion, which makes this even more important.
What do you think of a large hall for crucifixions? Large enough so a big crowd fits inside, with some walls so that the worst of the weather is left outside, thus preventing the scorching sun and blizzards from killing the victim too soon.Agreed, a good question!
I agree that postponing crucifixions can be a great way to get a larger crowd. It builds anticipation for the next one, not only among the potential crowd but with the victims. Also too, it could lead to more victims being crucified at once!
Then again, since my fantasies are a little different and often involve something ending in death, cold weather (or anything potentially uncomfortable) could be a nice added torture. Having attended my share of frigid NFL games, there are plenty of people willing to show up if there is something that interests them (and your beer stays colder). Though, we would have to be careful with a naked victim.
On the flip side, warm weather can present some problems to those being marched to their doom on a cross. As I generally go barefoot, and have gotten used to doing it on hot pavement, for someone not used to it, being marched without shoes on a paved road in sunny hot weather could be quite uncomfortable on the blazing hot pavement. Hence, one could almost see a victim in that instance wishing for the end of their journey carrying the cross and forgetting for a moment what that end entails.

Wow! Way too much time on my hands for a Monday.
I soooo want to know what it is like to carry such a cross! Though I think the girl pictured is standing too upright, given the thick dimensions and overall size. She'd be bent over more, I think.
A practical idea for carrying out crucifixions in cold weather. A winter crucifixion would cause death so much sooner due to hypothermia. So fucking unfair!!!
Well, unfair for those condemned to death in pleasant weather. Their deaths are agonizingly long whereas those crucified in wintery weather will die relatively quickly.
An idea: Perhaps inject the condemned with a type of antifreeze that in itself is not deadly in the short term. Or keep their blood warmed by some sort of blood bypass system. (Don't they already have something like this to treat victims of hypothermia?) It would in itself put incredible stress of the body, but might work.

Sounds like a good solution to me! We wouldn’t want any of the condemned to die too soon or get off with a smaller crowd!
Yes, it could be a social affair. Vendors selling food or bring your own. Picnic tables set up, beer available on tap, maybe even a band. Walk among the crosses, view the condemned, talk with the executioners, and so on.
I also imagine something like a tailgate party before a football game. Get there early for a good seat. You want a good view when the condemned are nailed and elevated!
Sounds bizarre, but I recall seeing old photos taken at public hangings where crowds of people were gathered around the gallows waiting for the big drop! They were festive occasions.
What a seriously whippable bottom she has! Although I'm not much into crucifixion itself, there are not many things that excite me more than the sight of a naked woman crawling on dirt like that, especially when seen from the rear. Maybe I should write a scene, or create a render later, in which girls carry timbres in such a manner on a mine or a construction site.
