Everybody please look at these two drawings of Anubis and Ammut and of Thoth painting a feather from The Papyrus of Ani.

Gargoyles: The Curse Of Hunter's Moon Special Trivia:
Through a collection (literally) of easter eggs and a tad few direct references, a retroactive shared universe will be heavily implied....
See, the main villain's headquarters has a special room or section that's almost library/bookstore-like which Elisa finds herself in when infiltrating the lair and has to hide from at first the guards than Demona herself. There, she finds that it's an entire collection of photos, clippings and objects from several different pieces of media. For example, when Elisa is quietly looking through, she accidentally bumps into something and causes something to drop but before it hits the floor, alerting anyone, Elisa quickly catches it in her hands.
But what is the object that falls and she catches —
A black egyptian book that's a heavy tome of pure obsidian with golden hinges and a wheel lock on the front. Sound familiar?

And on top of that, it's not just some random easter egg. It's heavily implied like with everything else to be the exact same book from the movie, meaning technically speaking Stephen Sommers' awesome The Mummy (1999) remake and Gargoyles: The Curse Of Hunter's Moon, among many others, take place in the same universe as each other.

Book of the dead from The Mummy (1999) i made for that party in my insitute
I dontike the end result. I didn't have enough time and that's why the spine lacks that stick the original book has. I also forgot about hinges on the other side. The scarabs are supposed to be black not gold, but I realized only after it was too late. Each of the heads is very different and crooked, and their necks are not of the same length. I didn't have this thick foam that makes things much easier when you want to get more volume quickly so I had to cut out each of the parts of the mechanism from a very VERY thin cardboard and then glue them together. I couldn't even use a normal standardl thickness cardboard bc its been snowing for many days now so any cardboard left next to a dumpster is unusable.
I think the lock is nice. And I liked working on scarabs. That part was fine.
However considering that during half that time i spent on this I also had a low grade fever and the other half i was in the early stages of a meltdown i think it looks acceptable. I did my best.
It reminded me that i really like making props!
