I know Im a day early but I am off on holidays tomorrow morning really early so this is the only chance I could get to post. No point in getting someone else to do this when its just the day before I think.
The above is the last of the tombs I saw on that May trip with Rob. Is a great area, looking forward to seeing it again in the end of this month. If anyone is interested I did a little writeup about the place and these tombs in general here:

great rendering in this one. all seems to form very well. especially like the way the tomb is emerging from the long grass.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rich, was a fun one to do, challenging as it kind of just looks like a bunch of rocks, not much left of it but that added to the character of it too.
ReplyDeleteYou caught the scene alright. It was a little bleak around that spot but very interesting as there were two other monuments and a collapsed souterrein within two hundred metres of the location of this drawing. Class drawing by the way. those pines frame the slab nicely.
ReplyDeleteThanks man, having alot of fun playing with these of late. And ya this site was great, think it was you who spotted it? Could have easily missed it as the angle approaching it it just looked like a stone
ReplyDeleteis that some lovely ferns at the front? :) my god you have the patience of a saint JG ...so much detail..fantastic...love that stronger outline around the rock..looks great
ReplyDeleteI think it was flowerless gorse, though I am no biologist so could be wrong! And thanks, not much to it, tis fun to make them!
