Description

This is part of a tileset I´ve been drawing for our videogame Liet´s Quest Hetalia. These poles are part of what´s known as Žemaičių Alka, in Šventoji, Lithuania. I added Taurys for size reference (and to make it more Hetaliaish XD)


:iconhetalia-videogames::iconsaysplz: WE NEED MORE LIKE THIS, PEOPLE. ANYONE WILLING TO HELP? Anyone who would like a piece of her/his country to be featured in our games? We are looking from monuments to supermarkets, to parks, to buildings, to McDonald´s... whatever you want to show of your country! Well, right now we are in a hurry to have more Lithuanian stuff but this is Hetalia, anything regarding other countries is more than welcome! Please ;A;

See, for example, our Canadian friend made a Tim Hortons and I made Japanese stuff and others:





Back to the poles, as I said these poles are part of what´s known as Žemaičių Alkas, in Šventoji, Lithuania.

These wooden ritual poles are a pagan Lithuanian temple and a paleoastronomic observatory. The poles in my tilesheet and in the photo represent the Moon (Mènulis), the Sun (Saulé) and the Vegetation (Patrimpas, the god of the plants I believe)

The ones I am showing you are these three poles in this beautiful pic:



I needed lots of time to find photos and references... and I still haven´t got enough. If any of you have some photos to share, please do share, please please? ;A;

I don´t think you remember this journal of mine, talking about this place? [link] if you do can help, please share your wisdom with me, I am more that willing to learn ;v;

LIETUVA, YOU ARE SO COOL :heart: WHY WON´T THEY LET ME GO THERE ON A ERASMUS GRANT ;A; Well, at least I may be able to go to Estonia or Poland >w<

Well then, that´s all... see you!

I love these! I'd add a whole side-quest in my game just to get to use them!

Say, I noticed in one of your more recent posts that your art was going viral, and I assume, being posted or used not according to your terms. Can you tell me what is happening? I definitely don't want to do anything you object to!
May I ask/suggest that you add terms to each image if you don't want the CC 3.0 license to apply? (it's on the page here.)
I DEFINITELY do not want to violate terms for your or anyone else's art, and will not repost or do anything that would violate your terms against your expressed wishes! Love your stuff! Thanks for sharing with all of us!
