St. George and the Dragon (after a painting by Uccello)
« on: March 26, 2006, 02:22:38 »
Here I tried to more or less re-create a painting by Uccello form around 1456...
I also attached the original.

That is terrific! Very faithful to the original art, yet Playmo through and through. I love it!

I can only agree with what Cap'n Henry and Richard have said - excellent through and through.  Great to have a Renaissance fan on the board.

Brilliant!

and before he slew the dragon,
he drank a pint of English ale
out of an English flagon."

Wow! :wow:
 
You did a wonderful job with the 'klickified' version, right down to having a very similar looking cave and the same cloud shapes in the sky! :love:

I really hope you have some more of these in the works. 8-)
