And much to the dismay of many, by which I mean "me," neither Xena nor Gabrielle were crucified naked.
Hey Whipper, why so sad?

Since my first attempt ontopic was getting such a warm accolade (4 people replied, not a small feat on a niche place) I recidived. Hope you like them gals (hey, even Callisto got her own cross this time) and let me know what areas of improvement are visible to you (but not to me).

Not sure whether an improvement or I just didn't pick up on it before, but I think the facial expressions, which are very good, really make the scene come alive.

Whoever you want. Livia? That's another good looking in the Xena universe. Or maybe Deianeira? Or Tara ... Shiri Appleby grew up into a fine woman, too bad she was on the younger side in Xena. Neah, in 1998 she was already 20, she's game. Not Afrodita, though. Can't crucify an godess. So, who do you choose?

Or Varia, and Alti ordered to crucify them.

Couldn't recall her but I quickly google it and she's too masculine in body and face .. I get it she's amazon and stuff but I'd rather look at some feminine shapes like Amarice's (Jennifer Sky), also an amazon woman but not one built like a fridge.
I struggle to conceive how it might be improved, Doe, it's exceedingly close to perfect!

Well, there's an empty cross and I'm trying to figure out who should be on it ...
You choose. We’ll all love it, whomever you decide should be crucified.
Relax Barb, this time it might not be you...You choose. We’ll all love it, whomever you decide should be crucified.
I WAS TIRED!!!And the legionnaire fell asleep on the job??? Tsk tsk

First of all I like the pics.
As for area's of improvement.
1 think the 2 legionairs are a bit to static . If you remove one it would be better, change in pose of one even a small rotation of one would make them see less static. maybe a differnt haircolor for one will make them feel less like twins
2 Gabriella's face should have some shadows on the side of her face turned away from the sun.
Love the dynamic of the nail hammered in BTW
3 The shadow on Tara's face don't really matchup with shadows overall.
Love how her body tenses.
4 Last image is perfect!! dynamic roman guard leaning against the cross works beautifull for the scene.
2 and 3 are mostly related to the mixing of pics from the series and 3D stuff I presume.
Very hard to get the shadows consistent with more then 1 character.
With one character you could have rotate the sun or the character to align the shadows in the 3D scene,
without disrupting the whole feel of the scene.
The thickness of the timber used is quite overwhelming, my preference would be leaner crosses which aren't as heavy as these.
making it much easier to raise the victim and beam on top of the notch.
Timber in that size should be used in defensive buildings, siege engines or making ships I would guess..
(feel free to disregard if your fantasy tells you to use this size of wood)
All in all very nice series... hope you will make more stuff like this.
Peace!!
