I finally finished this thing. The sketch of this has been lurking on my PC for way too long. Haven't drawn these guys in ages.

Also sorry for the delay on the Leipzig photos. I got Covid again as soon as I returned and ultimately forgot about them...

Tell me you know nothing about history without telling me you know nothing about history

academic bias is so funny because you’ll be reading about the same historical event and one person is like “Despite the troubles that befell his homeland and near constant criticism of the court King Blorbo remained strong in the face of adversity” and the other one is like “after letting his people carry the brunt of his cringefail decisions Blorbo the Shitface refused to listen to any reason and continued to be a warmongering piece of shit. Also he was ugly.”

#historians are out there beefing with ppl who died over 200 years ago. good for them #history #history memes #this isn’t really about anyone in particular #but I did read the most hilariously bitter takes on alexander I #not that it’s hard to poke fun at his vanity and indicisive nature but like. he was just a poor little meow meow #although I have some weird grudges against dead ppl as well *cough* Catherine II *cough*

So while listening to Episode 6's case, I remembered that during the early premiere stream Jonny and Alex talked about Needles a bit. So I figured I'd put them together to make a nice little intro for Needles because I fell in love with him immediately.

#the magnus protocol #the magnus protocol spoilers #tmp #tmp spoilers #tmagp #needles #jonny sims #alexander j newall #my audio #let bloody hear it for #harry roebuck #what an incredible performance #i can see how that would convince alex if the writing wasnt enough #because wow #absolutely wicked #i hope we get to hear from needles again in the future

The Alexander Column is the focal point of Palace Square in Saint Petersburg. The monument was raised after the Russian victory in the war with Napoleon and named for Emperor Alexander I.

The Column was designed by Auguste de Montferrand, built between 1830 and 1834 by Antonio Adamini, and unveiled on 30 August 1834. The monument is claimed to be the tallest of its kind in the world at 47.5 m tall and is topped with a statue of an angel holding a cross. The angel was designed by the Russian sculptor Boris Orlovsky and it is said that its face bears great similarity to the face of Emperor Alexander I.

The pedestal of the Alexander Column is decorated with symbols of military glory. On the side of the pedestal facing the Winter Palace is a bas-relief depicting winged figures holding up a plaque bearing the words "To Alexander I from a grateful Russia". The composition includes figures representing the Neman and Vistula rivers that were associated with the events of the Patriotic War. Flanking these figures are depictions of old Russian armour – the shield of Prince Oleg of Novgorod, the helmet of Alexander Nevsky, the breastplate of Emperor Alexander I, the chainmail of Yermak Timofeyevich and other pieces recalling heroes whose martial feats brought glory to Russia. The other three sides are decorated with bas-reliefs featuring allegorical figures of Wisdom and Abundance, Justice and Mercy, Peace and Victory, the last holding a shield bearing the dates 1812, 1813 and 1814. These compositions are enhanced by depictions of Ancient Roman military symbols and Russian armour.
