The detestable robbers destroyed great Rome,and furthermore,ignorant barbarians put the gorgeous brilliance of Greek and Rome in the verge of desperate darkness .However,the dawn would come after one thousand of years later.Β

Rome will rise again one day, under the rule of new "Caesar"

That's a powerful work. I really like the colours and the way you made the flames.

Wonderful. When I look at this I think of the great fire of rome during the rule of Titus.

I love the way the buildings of Rome seem to be closing in on her, giving the illusion that her life is falling apart.

Rome did not fall to barbarians, but to a half-naked damsel-in-distress.

Great job by the way.

Very powerfull, especially with the stripped woman piecing together what little she has. Adds depth, and drama to the piece. 9/10, 4/5

Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely, thus the fall of Rome, the greatest of all cities.

Nice picture! Actually, for being the namesake of such an (eventually) powerful empire, Rome sure did get sacked a surprising number of times.

Dis pragtig!!!! Ek het nie geweet iemand kon so 'n mooi prent van die laaste dae van Rome skep nie. Dis hartseer dat die Roomse Ryk nie langer aangegaan het nie, maar alles moet een of ander tyd eindig.

The way everything is stacked up behind shows how far Rome was fallen. The fire looks amazing and well crafted. I love the texture of the piece. The only thing I have a problem with is the woman. I'm not fond of the way her clothes are falling off. I might be paranoid but this just seems to sex appeal, but hey I could be wrong!

Kanthesis In reply to greekaholic [2010-10-06 17:39:44 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for your comment. And no, you're not paranoid. I first planned to do a sexy rome citizen, as a pin-up. She was supposed to be the main subject.
But I enjoyed so much working on the background, it was getting bigger and took more space on the page, and became the subject itself. So maybe the character finally doesn't matches with the scene... dunno...^^

greekaholic In reply to Kanthesis [2010-10-06 20:47:49 +0000 UTC]

I don't mind sexy pinups. That's fine but it bothers me when such a nice picture has something like that in it. I can understand what you're saying though!

burntfawkes [2010-07-08 15:05:07 +0000 UTC]

Impressive. What I like is that the cause of total destruction is for a viewer to guess, be it the wrath of the gods or the enemies invading. The look of fear on the girl's face is quite natural.

Kanthesis In reply to burntfawkes [2010-07-12 09:19:45 +0000 UTC]

I had a barbarian march on Rome in mind when I did it. But yes, anyone can imagine several reasons of this destruction.
Thank you for that!
