For sure high on the favorites-listFor me this picture is the best master piece ever created for this kind of art. First time I saw it, I fell in love.

I have to confess that while the pose, expression and level of detail are amazing, it's got two elements that turn me off. I'm not much of a piss fan and, -this may sound like heresy to many here- I don't actually like cornus.For me this picture is the best master piece ever created for this kind of art.

The execution of the condemned woman is a science of its own. The nailing to and raising of her cross is basic carpentry and a bit of muscle. The art of her crucifixion is the proper display of the woman as she suffers the tortures of her crucifixion before she die. Do not worry about the agony she endures as she hangs from the cross...
...she earned her death!
#12 Prepping her for crucifixion.
"Yeah, no problem getting the cornu up in her now."
...and she even has that 'oh, shit' expression!!!
The expression is great.Really sells the pic....and she even has that 'oh, shit' expression!!!
A great Jucundus, that's for sure!Crucification means that first they treat you like shit and then you take an awfully long time to die. There are lots of great stories about suffering on the cross for many hours here on cruxforum.
But this should also show.. @Aluafaen et Rimmon Ra for example is very good at that. Me, on the other hand, I am not, and my girls on sticks often look like they just had a nice hot shower.
So when I came across a model with well-made bruised skin I used it for these pics. Hope you like them.

The first image shows an ultrarealistic expression of the sheer agony and hopelessness of a crucifixion with nails. The second is the wonderful "oh shit", as in she's almost surprised this is happening to her. Crux art needs to show realism. Jucundus does this most magnificently with his pain-etched faces and stretched and straining limbs....and she even has that 'oh, shit' expression!!!
As awful as crucifixion is, this is truly horrible way to die. It might be quicker (or slow if the sawing only goes so far) but for sheer spectacle it's hard to beat. And ladies already have a nice notch in which to get the cut started!My favorite for ever View attachment 1395548
