I've just finished making these ancient Roman inspired "laurel wreath" crowns out of jewel beetle shells and preserved 17 year cicada wings. I've done three of the jewel beetle ones, so one is in my Etsy (link in bio), the cicada wing one is one of a kind so far so I haven't listed it yet. I'm really happy with how these came out!

Aquarius and Fantasia?
Mod Charm was a little burnt out at the time this request was made, but she was kind enough to let me do it! I was very excited to do so!!
Cynaethus is a one-griff Greek Chorus! He has a gorgeous falsetto that can be heard from miles away. I think they’d get along very well with their half-aunt Willow Warbler :}

Virtue
Artist: Alessandro Turchi (Italian, 1578-1649)
Date: 1606
Medium: Oil on canvas
Collection: Royal Collection Trust, London, United Kingdom
Description
This painting depicting Virtue formed one side of an organ shutter originally painted for the organ in the newly built music hall at the Accademia Filarmonica in Verona. When the shutters were closed Honour appeared on the left with Virtue on the right. The figure was inspired by Cesare Ripa's Iconologia and the artist probably consulted the 1603 edition which has some woodcut illustrations. The female winged figure of Virtue clutches a laurel crown and a spear in her right hand, as described by Ripa, who adds a sun at her breast.
WAITTTTT HERA THROWING OFF HER LAUREL CROWN (typically awarded to victors, like those who win Olympic events) IN THE LIVESTREAM GOD GAMES ANIMATIC- SHE'S GIVING ATHENA AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK TO HER NOT AS A QUEEN, BUT AN EQUAL AND A CHANCE TO WIN THE GAME
It's a beautiful day in Ancient Rome and... you want to kill Julius Caesar.
