Constantine est la troisième ville la plus importante d'Algérie en termes de population.
Constantine, l'une des plus anciennes cités du monde, est une ville importante dans l'histoire méditerranéenne. De son ancien nom Cirta, capitale de la Numidie, elle porte depuis 17 siècles le nom de l'empereur Constantin Ier qui la reconstruisit en 313. Constantine est également surnommée la « ville des ponts suspendus » ou bien « ville des aigles ». Ville du malouf, version constantinoise de la musique arabo-andalouse, et des oulémas, elle est la capitale régionale de l'Est du pays. (source wikipedia)
🤔 I knew as I was designing this well-preserved monument, that capturing the vivid colored marbles it once boasted would be more important than a strict adherence to scale.
👨🎨 That is why I took the artistic license to make the Arch of Constantine roughly 50% larger than reality; in order to use elements which capture its former polychromy!

... in the courtyard of the Palazzo dei Conservatori.
'Portrait' view version of the adjacent photo of the surviving fragments of massive statue of Constantine the Great that are now in the Courtyard of the Palazzo dei Conservatori.
This 12 metres tall statue of the emperor seated on a throne was originally in the Basilica of Maxentius, just east of the Roman Forum. (See: flic.kr/p/2mTyKsk).
Constantine was emperor from 306 to 337. He was a pagan when he first became emperor, but converted and became the first Christian emperor. He also established Constantinopolis (Constantinople; present day Istanbul) as a second capitol of the Roman empire, reflecting the greater importance of the east in population and wealth. The statue was intended to project Constantine's status as both the leader and head of the Roman empire and as a revered figure; both 'sort of deified' and yet Christian, emperor.

And we have a Constantine! :D
I am probably going to have to redo his faceup, which is ok, since Bruce's faceup was somehow chipped when I finished, and I don't have any idea what happened, and Benedict Cumberbatch Minimee- soon to be Doctor Strange - had a serious issue that involved modding, so I have to redo the both of them too.
Why I worked like a fiend to get them done I don't know.
Anyway, Granado Hansel! A head I didn't know existed, and sold to me by the wonderful Blithe Fool <3
He's on a Dollzone body, which he does not match. At all. Like, omg it's bad XD
HI!

This photo shoot went totally wrong :(, bad light... But I hope You can enjoy these bohemian feelings anyway :)
I usually only take photos of one doll at a time, so it was quite difficult for me to concentrate on two dolls at the same time. Somebody once asked me to do a group shot of all my BJD dolls... hmmm... I don't think I have the nerves to do that ;)
