On the evening of that first day of the week, when the diciples were together with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said, "Peace be with you!" After he said this, he showed them his hands and side. The diciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.
John 20:19-20

edit:gah 13+ for blood forgot about that

This is pretty good. You did nicely on the shape of the hand. It's nice to see a picture of what Easter is really about. Not that I don't think bunnies are cute...

Happy Easter to you too. We do not really celebrate it all that much, but this is still nice anyway.

Ahhh fleeting, thank you for this. Like Straberry said it's nice to see something that actually is about this day.

Happy Easter to you.

His hand shows the pain he suffered for us.

I'm not exactly sure but weren't his palms impaled instead of his wirsts?
But oh well, this is a nice picture anyways. :)

No, his wrist were impaled for a nail wouldn't have stayed in his palm. Not enough bones to hold the nail. It would just rip out.

according to the stories he was nailed in the hands.
GOODBYE (edited Apr 16, 2006)
uhm on the cross there was a wood block underneath his feet i believe so he could support himself. but i'm not much of a christian so who cares, nice blood.
but my friend pointed out..why did you put "he is risen" when he's dying right there :*(

I watched something on tv today called Shroud of Christ? and they spoke about where the nails went, they said it went through the palm of the hand off center closer to the thumb but at an angle so that it came out the back of the wrist, that way it could hold more weight but was also the most painful way as it hit a major nerve. But i guess we will never know 4sure.

Thanks for the comments you guys
-Goodbye I was trying to simulate both good friday and easter, foreground and background as two different times-guess it didnt work too well-oh well

This makes me cringe...cause not too long ago, in anthro class, we watched this video on this cultural thing where a guy gets crucified; and yes, they zoomed in on the palm and showed them driving a large nail into his palm :(.
As for your efforts, I think this turned out pretty well :). I mean....it did make me cringe, right? lol...(I know I know, you're probably gonna say something like, "you could have covered your eyes during the video..." but I just couldn't look away, bleh)

Anyway, I hope you had a nice Easter yourself :). Glad to see you drew some more...

The nails on Jesus' went through his palms but in normal curcifixions, which they did many times in various histories (Roman, Greek, etc.) the nail traditionally went through the wrists and ankles.

Or so i've read. The shading looks weird and the blood kind of looks like ribbons but it's better than i could do. So kudos.

hey did you know judas may have not been all that bad? =]
there's a gospel of judas that was found and they restored it and it was 13 pages long.
it says that judas was asked by jesus to do all that stuff.
and no I'm not christian or anything. I barely know anything about the religion. I learned this in my "myth magic monster and mystery" class. we watched a documentary on this.
I'm buddhist kthnx. christianity and other monotheistic religions confuse me.
