FULL VIEW TO APPRECIATE!

Death comes on swift wings.

I got this idea from the stock image of the sitting woman. The original concept was Pompeii: I was going to have a volcano in the background and have the masses gathered be the ensuing chaos caused by the panic, but I felt that it wasn't necessary to include it after adding everything else in: it looks better as simple as it is. Looks very "fall of Rome" now!

Labour of love this one. Took me about two days on and off to get this together. It's a composite of a lot of different stock images, brushes and some clever colouring!

Sadly, I don't seem to have the ruins saved on my computer to credit the artists of those. Sorry! :( The pillows and additional bruises are my own.

Yeah it complements the colors well and makes the shadow border possible.
