#London, Mithraic relief.
Found close to the site later identified as a #temple of #Mithras. This piece was carved for the benefit of Ulpius Silvanus, #veteran of II Augusta, who may have joined the cult at #Orange (Arausio) in #Gaul

Asterix the Gaul. I literally learned to read with that and Tintin. They're both great, but I think Asterix was the one I loved the most.
RIP Goscinny and Uderzo https://t.co/CoQTW6TLFF

Sylvain Despretz' beautiful design for the gladiator helmet of Tigris of Gaul. The retractable facemask was inspired by the helmets of french firefighters! #Gladiator20

WIP working on tweaking Gaul's ref more, might just end up making it totally digital at this point. This is his more land-oriented form, its got a lot more horse-like anatomy with it, and he crops his ears himself
29 Mar & 2 April: Feast of Eustasius/Eustace (d 626/9). Follower of Irish St Columbanus, & successor as abbot of #Luxeuil, Burgundy, Gaul. Columbanus had been banished since he reproved morals of local king! Eustasius noted for his humility, continual prayer, fasting & expansion.
My first (halfway) proper ref sheet for Gaul's vampire form! I still have some little details to add plus some info on his piercings but until then I'm happy with this!
Albert Uderzo, artist of Asterix the Gaul, died today. Asterix was one of the comics that formed my taste for comedy adventure stories when I was very young. Rest well, Uderzo! You were one of the greatest.
