Carry On Through the Ages (all the way back to Ancient Egypt)

"A Prophesied Rivalry:

This painting, remarkably well-preserved, was recovered from the tomb of a previously unknown and as-yet unidentified woman of significant power, whose rediscovery has fascinated Egyptologists. Historical analysis suggests she was believed to possess a gift for prophecy, and this artwork is very likely an attempt to illustrate one of her visions.

Here, she and her husband are depicted championing their son, who faces an outsider in combat. The outsider is also supported by an enigmatic figure of seemingly great power, foretelling a great struggle between two mighty forces, though whether these forces were meant to be supernatural or more mundane is not clear.

The dog shown, intriguingly, held a place of honor within the family and was found interred in a nearby chamber. The cat's presence, however, remains enigmatic, as the "Cats vs Dogs" reputation cultivated by these domesticated animals today is not something observed elsewhere in Ancient Egyptian artwork. Noted Egyptologists Miriam Blackwood and Theodore Langston have half-jokingly speculated that its inclusion was a mere artistic preference, hinting at the painter’s fondness for cats."

I've always loved Ancient Egyptian art, ever since childhood. I've wanted to do something like this ever since I first read of Baz's ancestry, so @carryonthroughtheages seemed the best excuse to dabble in this ancient art style.

I talked to @monbons about it and apparently the stars and planets were in alignment that day, because she agreed to collaborate with me. She’s created some absolutely gorgeous fiber art to go along with Natasha’s prophecies. And then she surprised me with a Baz doll, because she is amazing. (I love him so much and we are going to look at fashion books together. It’s going to be awesome.)

This is definitely fanart of both Ancient Egyptian art and Snowbaz. Both are worth diving into if you find yourself curious to know more!

Just got back from seeing The Mummy 25th Anniversary Re-Release in theaters and man it was so special!

I had never seen this movie in theaters before and I was there with my best friend who also loves The Mummy with her whole heart. The movie begins, Ardeth starts speaking, I grab her hand and tears start to well up in my eyes.

Throughout the movie I could tell who in the theater were my kind of people, as they were the ones laughing at the jokes, bouncing to the music, and saluting when Winston died. It was delightful to see some people bring their loved ones who maybe hadn’t seen the film before. They were jumping at all the scary parts, wincing at the bugs and death, but most delightful of all, reacting to Brendan Fraser’s facial expressions!

The cinematic experience is truly how The Mummy is supposed to be watched, as I was able to discern the more subtle whispers in the background that indicated Imhotep was nearby and reacted viscerally to the scarabs because there was surround sound.

This movie may not be a perfect movie, but to me this is my perfect movie. I look forward to being able to watch The Mummy Returns in theaters.

All of Sherlock Holmes' tummy tapping! (unless I missed some)

So, watching the Mello Cola arc of Toriko and some facts jumped out to me.

they're going to the dangerous remnants of a long-dead civilization, two to search for treasure, one for knowledge

they're guided by a guy they had to bargain out of jail to get there

one of the denizens which have been mummified is wandering the premises trying to suck people dry

they solve their problems because their resident Brainy Member is able to read a dead language

Which sure sounds a lot like

So instead of doing any of the billion projects I have ongoing I spent most of yesterday drawing this

best trios are two guys who are in love and a third guy who is in it for the money

[2puncturezz]

this is very last minute but I thought it would be fun to make one of these things

I wanted to go for the most popular stories/movies but I threw in some other ones just to mix it up

I also tried to be really vague so you can draw whatever characters you wanted from any of the stories/movies

(use the first tag if any of you decide to do this lmao)

Another reason the 12th doctor is my fav is that he offers jelly babies to a professor of alien mythology on the orient express.
