Where do you get them?
Mithyaat, where did you get your pics?
Death is the threshold through which life eternal is reached.
Saving Eiran is the main reason for existing.
Embrace Death as the best means towards this goal.

Haha, thanks. I was going for stark. And the lintel is indeed a Shinto prayergate.
Lest you be too impressed, I ripped most of it from bits of existing objects, and then put the bits together in ways that were never intended.
I did the texturing and lighting, but the rest is taken out of context and re-engineered.

The whole thing reminds me of the merpeset t'filah (open air prayer shelter, although I don't think I got the Hebrew right, I'll have to check with Beorn) at Beorn's camp, only your's looks like a more permanent structure. The only picture I could find of it is a close-up interior one, but you might get a feel for it from the photo.Vadhaka wrote:Haha, thanks. I was going for stark.

I have a picture of Beorn in front of it from his first year at camp on my PC, but who knows when we'll get that set up...

Looks right to me. A smichut (two nouns stuck together to make one). Mirpeset = patio. T'filah = prayer (the infinitive of 'to pray' is l'hitpallel, or 'to kneel oneself'. i'll have to look up the root to mirpeset when I get home.).
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Heh. I'm very rusty.

you're more advanced than a cockroach,

i've had this with actors before, on the set,
where they get upset about the [size of my]
trailer, and i'm always like...take my trailer,
cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.
