One of the ropes have the wrong direction, shadows on top and lights on bottom.

Madi is referring to the rope on the girl's right wrist. He's more wide awake than I am!
Oh noo! I'm permanent tired and a bit in bad moods. I dont know why. Maybe I missed the sun.

Ok I have to agree with Madiosi, I prefer chains to ropes in my scenarios anyway, also I made the male protagonists a bit "stiffer", I hope that fits now.
Is the pistol deliberately symbolic of the "armed" cocks, or is it just a happy accident?

The pistol is already to be seen as a sign of the power of the pirates' penises, but these can also be used in a thoroughly efficient way to educate and humiliate the female prisonerThe 4th is really quite incredible ... good stuff Bob ...View attachment 1261567
An interesting idea, although Julia was previously crucified by Makar and Imagemaker in Moscow on 8 June 2008 -

and remarkably she was crucified again at Cruxton Abbey on 15 February 2020.

I think it's a kind of cod-piece or ornamental sporran, that cocks up automatically when a target is sighted!

Still one of my favorites!Lissa's Last Moments
It's been a long time since I last worked with Lissa (aka Kamilla) and it's been a long time since I sent somebody to the gallows. And so, she faces the consequences of a life of piracy, and prepares to serve the sentence for her crimes. Somehow the prison yard lacks the heady atmosphere of a public execution. On reflection, she believes it was all worthwhile - at least they can't take that away from her!
On the technical side, there are 8 layer masks including the composite figure in 5 layers, plus 6 colour blending filters for each version of the picture.
How did Tree miss this one?!?!?!
I realize that other manip artists have already used this painting, notably CamCrux. I started this one without knowing he had already riffed off of this painting "The Tribute" by Ludwig Deutsch, and I don't mean to take anything away from Cam's excellent manip on a similar theme. Hopefully mine is at least slightly different.
At Bobinder's suggestion, I'm calling this "We already have one."
Some gentlemen have arrived at the palace to pay their annual tribute to the Sultan. I suspect tribute, and indeed the painting, would be somewhat incomplete if it didn't include some comely slave girls. Naturally the mistress of the harem would want to come out and see for herself whether the tribute was good enough for her master (and her own exalted company). She seems a bit disdainful.

Placing the mistress in the doorway with the guard creates a very different narrative theme from the earlier version by @CamCrux , which can be seen in his thread -

The Jollyrei version presents an informal group at the foot of the steps. Balancing the scale, colour and contrast of a group of figures from different sources is awkward enough when blending them into a new background. The manipulation achieves a high degree of success in this respect, and also in terms of lighting considerations.
Deutsch has painted the scene in diffused sunlight, which casts dense shadows with soft edges. The inserted figures now cast similar shadows, which give the impression of solid presence, variously sitting, standing and kneeling on the ground - and their proximity to the steps has reduced the relative brightness in this area. Such convincing details are carefully observed and recreated to produce a realistic blend of new characters with the original painting. Well done, Jolly!
Wonderful image, Jolly!
It puts a new meaning to the term 'door to door salesman '
Ding dong! Slaves'r'us calling! Have you considered our latest models for keeping your palace clean, sir?
I'm thinking these days, the Sultan would be getting messages saying 'we've got your coffle at our depot', then - probably some days later - 'your coffle is out for delivery', followed, at least where I am out in the sticks, by desperate phone calls from the slave-driver who can't find where to deliver them!Wonderful image, Jolly!

Or arms and legs visibly sticking out of the letterbox. Or delivered to the old lady 5 doors down

You can read the mistress' mind, when she inspects the offered goods!
"Oh no! Obviously another lot of Blue State Girls captured from a cruise ship in the Mediterranean!! No way I'll take them! They complain way too much!"
And a Happy Easter to you too, Bob!
There is nothing not to love about this astounding image; Bob has returned to the crux theme with this brilliantly composed and executed image of Julia. Wonderful!
