I will try to comply with your wishes but please remark that for some scenes ropes only are more suitable.

A mass crux outside the Temple of Jupiter in the Forum of Pompeii!

Vesuvius rises threateningly in the background, and this scene only requires the eruption and ensuing panic to provide an illustration suitable for Velut Luna's 'Amica'.
Nice work, Hammers - figure scale, lighting and inserted shadows are all looking consistent here - well done!

And congratulations on identifying the Pompeii Forum reconstruction source, which I adapted for my recent 'Amica' manipulations!

Hello Bobinder! Thank you for your kind comments. Actually Pompeii is one of my favourite subjects both under historical and cinematographical aspects.
Years ago I was in Pompeii and a vivid memory of that visit still resides in me. Couple of days ago I followed with interest the breaking news reporting the new finding at Pompeii of a fresco on a 'postribulum's' wall representing two fighting gladiators.

"Let's crucify a few maidens, to please Jupiter, and no doubt that volcano will stop rumbling!"

Nice work, Hammers!

Hi Loxuru! Many thanks for appraisal

The inspiring source of this manipulation was "The raising of the cross" by the flemish painter Antoon Van Dyck (1599-1641)
