Crax, make your porn relevant to the post
thanks, we all like porn, but it must be RELEVANT porn
Ewg. That's OK, Crax, don't bother, really.
Find a link for those who like dead people porn. That's the ticket. How relevant could porn ever be to this? LOL.
Don't worry, Crax. Now it's just like it never happened.
These are quite beautiful. I never realize the Japanese did this level of realism that long ago. I've done a lot of anatomical drawings and I have to say that I like how in these the Japanese were so honest in depicting death. I like that better than the surreal nature of some western anatomical plates.
I used to draw quite a bit and often went into the Mayo Clinic's medical library to draw the real skeletons mounted and on display. They all had names, I always kept that in mind out of respect.
Is this a menu for zombies?
Yuck - shouldn't have read this whilst eating breakfast. Reminds me of an exhibit I saw in the Science Museum in Florence - a collection of models showing all the different ways that pregnancy can go wrong.
