Minoan ladies of my court – Queen Pasiphae ( R ) and one of the princesses, either Ariadne of Phaedra (which one, I’ll decide once I create the other).

I’m not tagging their breasts nsfw since it’s historical. Any kid can google Minoan Age and see ladies dressed like this – only. Topless women was not an issue back then. 

I do wish I could find a TS3 top that wouldn’t hide their breasts, though. Anyone knows of any?

The fancy royal guard at my Palace of Knossos.

No, the costumes are not in the least historical, and I’m not planning them to be. 

The Minoan Age is so remote – the story of Icarus and the Minotaur should occur around 1700 B.C. – that darling I’ll give myself the right to improvise. 

Even the poses – like, this is Inna Lisa’s cocktail party poses, get it?

A Day at the Museum

New Nagron Gameplay! MODERN!

One can really empathize with Pygmalion….

CAPTIONS AS TEXT

– What better way to end a marathon of period films & tv shows all set in Antiquity, than to go to the local museum and see the real deal?

– Agron sighed, “Who cares if the show was historically inaccurate; it’s TV! How’s walking around here supposed to make any diff–”

– “WOAH! Check out the schwanz on that one!” Nasir chuckled. “It’s a discus athlete, Agron. Many of them practiced near to fully nude.”

– Agron was floored. “But this shite is like PORN! Kids are walking around – what the – What are these guys DOING!!?”

“Wrestling,” Nasir read the placard. Agron was aghast. “With the bloke’s cock up his arse!?” Nasir laughed. “Don’t you get any ideas, Aggy!”

“I guess you were right; they really DID fight naked back then! SCHEISSE! So many great scenes wasted on that show! I’ve been cheated.”

“Told ya so~!” Nasir took some time to examine the frescoes, listening as the tour guide explained the rigorous restoration attempts.

– But behind them Agron was paying zero mind. “Nasir, did you know the phallus was considered a protective symbol to ward off evil?”

“They even carved them on streets and buildings! GODS! We need to visit Monte Vista one day and see these ruins! Incredible place!”

“See, Aggy,” Nasir crowed. “Told ya coming here’d be great! Look at you, all fired up to see the rest of the exhibits! I’m glad!” ^_^

MY THOUGHTS

I can easily imagine Agron getting a real kick out of going around ogling all the homoerotic artwork and explicit nudity, then buying a whole book on Classical Art at the gift shop, claiming he’s being all cultured and educated when really he’s only in it for the porn. 😛

I’m just thinking of how Nasir gallivanted around the better portion of Season 3 with a necklace made of apotropaic phalluses (that Agron probably gave him, cuz it sounds like something he’d do. XD).

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s a town!

Or possibly the God Mercury running along to cover Jupiter tail feathers  before Juno realizes he’s been unfaithful AGAIN!

Mount Olympus must have been a noisy place, in the early mornings… just sayin’…

Anyway… Sol Valle is now really looking like a town!

Still a few holes here and there, but filling up (yes, I used some of those domi and insulae more than once, when I could)

Next to the Coliseum, I added a home/prison camp for the local gladiators:

And to supply “fresh meat” (so to speak), the local police force building:

They’re overlooking the port and keep an eye on things… And people!

Speaking of port, I added another supplier for the Coliseum…

If one needs a few wild animals to entertain the locals! And when I say wild…

I mean it! …Well, the lot is called “the horned lion” because:

So I’m not positive the owner doesn’t get creative now and then with the merchandise… Not all that bad. If I was an early Christian, a lion that doesn’t move around much would certainly be far better!

The aqueducs are taking clean, fresh spring water from the mountain to the town reservoir:

Which is cleaned regularly, of course! then the water goes down, as water is wont to do, in pipes, to the town.

Lead pipes… Yeah, right. Glass of wine, anyone?

this is so great, with aqueducts, the arena being built… so pretty!
