This is hilarious! I love the textures of the fabric too.
ambermac (Oct 23, 2005)
excellent original draw! fingers look a little stubby due to the foreshortening. you might try a "cheat" and make one or two fingers longer, curled, or further apart, just to break up the repetitive finger shapes.

"Erzsabet (Elizabeth) Bathory was born in Hungary in 1560, approximately a hundred years after Vlad the Impaler died. One of her ancestors Prince Steven Bathory, was even a commanding officer who helped Vlad Dracula In 1546, when he claim the throne in Wallachia back again.

"While her husband was pursuing his passion for war, throughout all the 25 years they were married, Elizabeth was often left to herself, and her life became more and more boring. To kill some time, besides admiring her own beauty in the mirror for hours, she took on young men as lovers, and one time she even ran off with one, but she soon returned home and the Count forgave her. Another thing Elizabeth did to amuse herself while home alone, was to pay visits to her aunt Countess Klara Bathory, an open bisexual. She presumably enjoyed herself with her aunt Klara, since she visited her aunt's estate frequently.

"It was also then she began to develop an interest in the occult. An old maid named Dorothea Szentes, also called Dorka, who was a real witch, instructed her in the ways of witchcraft and Black Magic. Later Dorka became Bathory's helping hand, when she was encouraging Elizabeth's sadistic tendencies, like the inflicting of pain upon people. Together with Dorka, Elizabeth began the task of disciplining the female
servants, and torture them in an underground chamber. In the Countess's service, as helpers in the macabre punishments of the servants, was her old nurse Iloona Joo, her manservant Johannes Ujvary and a maid named Anna Darvula, who allegedly also was Elizabeth's lover.

"With the aid of this crew, Elizabeth made Castle Csejthe to a place of pure evil. She would always find excuses to inflict punishment and torture upon her young servant girls. She preferred to having the victim stripped naked and then whip the girl on the front of her nude body rather than the back not only for the increased damage this would do, but so that she then could watch their faces contort in horror at their most
grim and burning fate. Another favorite was when she would stick pins, in various sensitive places on the victims body, such as under fingernails.

"Then one day it happened. A young chambermaid accidentally pulled Elizabeth Bathory's hair while combing it. The infuriated Countess slapped the girl's head so hard that blood spurted from her nose, which splashed upon her own hand. Where the blood had touched her skin, Elizabeth immediately thought it took on the freshness of her young chambermaid's skin. She then got hold of Johannes Ujvary and Dorka to undress the young girl, upon holding her arms over a big vat, then they cut her arteries. After the young girl was dead Elizabeth then stepped into the vat, and took a bath in her chambermaid's blood. She was now sure she had found the secret of eternal youth through this vampirism. She had discovered that blood is life."

Wizzard (Feb 7, 2008)

Besides that crap your kid puts out or his he your kid? maybe no one knows who his real father is? any way this sucks as much as you do!
