Extremely hot climate of Mediterranean provinces reduced the possibility of hypothermia even in case of full nakedness. Instead, dewatering could be the biggest problem, causing the premature death. But this could be easily helped...

#2 - I love this sort of picture. I find this theme of the victim offered a drink resonates on many levels. There is something terrifically intimate about taking a drink from a cup held by another. In this case the element of helplessness and dependence and humiliation figure highly too. She is desperate, she has to open her mouth, open herself even more completely than she is already, and accept what is being offered. If he is not very careful in what he does then she make choke a little, or spill water down her chin, down her naked body. She has little agency, she can only accept, only submit. And ultimately this kindness is no kindness, it only prolongs the ordeal.

It was a boring routine job for the soldiers and only one more show of the never ending rów of public executions for the citizens, however for the victim every pain and shame was a blank new and excruciating - verbatim! - feeling.

An appropriate description, and once more a great drawing.
The executioner is finishing the job. For the condemned on the cross, it all just started.

The hand sketch and it's application. Made in old good Ms Paint. I would never learn these sophisticated modern CG tools

Very nice pictures, both the drawing and the MS Paint. I have to admit, MS paint is also for me the highest technology within reach.
If you add some more intermediate tones to the skin color, you can create nicely grading shadow, flesh and muscle effects.

ps: andyman you are still THE best!!!

could any one put these two halves in one sketch.?
The sketch is too big for scanning in once.

The side slopes of the Palace Hill in Rome was the place of crucifixion for many special condemned, politicians and prisoners of war. There were social elites walking grounds, full of pines, palm trees and blossoms. At least at the spring time the flowers aroma overrided the victims rotting bodies smell.

Maybe the background is more detailed here. As for me, I was all the time amazed and (predominantly) shocked how so simple means - two logs, few nails and a sharpened pole - could bring so long and terrible pain, fear and shame for an individual. Beautiful and peaceful landscape makes this feeling even deeper due to the dreadful contrast...
