TODAY IN HISTORY

5 April 1722

Dutch navigator Jacob Roggeveen (1659–1729) discovered Easter Island.

Leading an expedition funded by the West India Company with three ships, Roggeveen was the first European to encounter the island, which was named for the day of its discovery.

The crew was struck by the sight of the island's moai statues that are an iconic aspect of the island to this day.

Easter Island is also known as Rapa Nui. Its area is about 162.5 sq. km. The island itself is located in the Pacific Ocean and attracts travelers with mysterious stone idols, about the origin of which there are various myths and legends.

The statues of Easter Island are called moai - these are giant human figures carved from volcanic rock. More than 10 m high, they weigh more than 150 tons. There are moai in the form of a huge head or with a body up to waist level. Idols are scattered throughout the island and are often combined into groups.

Despite the fact that a trip to Easter Island is quite an expensive event, hundreds of thousands of tourists travel to Chile every year to see these mysterious giants with their own eyes, take photos with moai and enjoy sunsets and sunrises.

Easter Island: people here apparently ran out of resources, including trees, around AD 1600, stopping work on their moai, throwing down the statues, and starting a bird-man cult and fighting amongst themselves.

Just when the second season of House of the Dragon was struggling to hold my attention

I would watch him do the dishes tbh

A few Yu-gi-oh monsters I have done with modelling clay. I have been playing Forbidden Memories a lot, and got attached to these monster cards.

Skull Servant is among my oldest figures, done with a skeleton improvised by my mom. I used paint for his eyesockets.

I'm happy for improving the female characters, but I struggle with faces a lot. I played with Dark Elf proportions for fun!

Uraby was done with garbage clay and then painted over. I'm happy how it turned out!

And I couldnt make Mystic Sand fly with a broomstick, so for now she's atop a Statue of Easter Island!
