Hey dashinvaine I just saw SandRhoman History's video about Sir John Hawkwood and medieval mercenaries in Italy. The one you mentioned before. As usual, great artwork to complement the video.
Say, has anyone heard of these subgenres? Where you have Fantasy mixed with either:
Early Modern History (15th-18th centuries: starting around The Renaissance, through The Cavalier Years and the Age of Exploration, going all the way through the Age of Sail, with the usual endpoint being The Napoleonic Wars).
19th century - very early 20th century (the Victorian and Edwardian eras).
What caught my interest was the idea of magic still existing but we get a clash in advances in knowledge and sciences to close the gap against pure magic. So this leads to a kind of clash between magic and science, while still allowing for the fantasy elements/races to exist in the story.
I'm very honored that you liked my younger self's historic photograph. Thank you, very much.
I'm glad you liked the macro shot--a lot of work went into that wooden cross--and my silly song. 'A little nonsense, now and then/Is relished by the wisest men.'
Hello Dashinvaine, thank you for this new favorite,
Happy Christmas
Best regards, Nicolas.
Hello !
I decided to showcase one of your amazing artworks in the Christmas edition of my collection of the most inspirational art I come across on DeviantArt.
I'm very grateful that you shared it on here and I'm doing my part to give it more exposure, as it truly deserves it.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! 😀
