#crow comic #art #artist #artist on tumblr #original comic #original art #I'd like to add a note here explaining the panel with just the flag of England #from that I mean to. Discuss how the influx of Christianity twisted England especially into being power hungry and corrupt #something something monarchy as a power of the church. something something beating the celts out of their home #I can't remember exactly what my thoughts were but I'm 99% sure it was along those lines. Hence the. Flag of England #st. georges flag??? I want to say??? Lemmie check #yea st georges flag cool #anyway.#current update is I might not be able to go to uni after all :))))))#oh actually this links to this comic #I made this during a college course I did that basically let you get a level 3 or level 4 in art media and design #this comic had no end input into it but I did make it as part of my final major project. Should have been graded - was not due to COVID #(I made it in 2020)#I got a level 4 which is the same as the first year of uni in the UK. Cool! Cost me nothing to attend #however now I'm applying for a student loan I'm. Not able to get one.

DEFY THE FUCKING POLICE REGARDING YOUR COUNTRY FLAG!

It's not a crime to fly the English flag, or any flag.

I've been hearing that the disgusting police fucktards are telling people to remove their English flags.

Disobey the police and fly it... it's your motherfucking right.

"The great day came. It was April 16, the eve of Sasha's twenty-third birthday. In the morning there was mass, at one o'clock in the afternoon the official ceremony of dressing the bride in the presence of the whole family, newly appointed court ladies and three ladies-in-waiting. Marie was coiffed so that two long curls fell on either side of her face, a small diadem of diamonds and pearl pendants was placed on her head - under it was attached a veil of lace, which hung below the shoulders. Each of us sisters gave her a pin to attach it, and then a purple ermine-trimmed robe, so heavy that five chamberlains had to hold it, was placed over her and fastened at the shoulder with a gold pin. At the end, Mama also attached a small bouquet of myrtle and orange blossom under the veil. Marie looked grand and majestic in her outfit, and the expression of solemn seriousness on her childish face was in perfect harmony with the beauty of her figure. At three o'clock there was a solemn banquet, approximately four hundred people were seated in the Nicholas Hall of the Winter Palace at three huge tables. In the middle are the Royal Family and the clergy, who opened the banquet with prayer and blessing. At the table, ladies sat on the right hand, gentlemen on the left. They drank the health of the young couple, Their Majesties, the Tsarevna's Parents, as well as all loyal subjects, and each toast was accompanied by cannon salvoes. The highest ranks of the Court brought champagne to Their Majesties; we, the other members of the Royal Family, were served by our chamberlains. A military band played, and the best singers of the Opera sang so that the walls shook. At eight there was a polonaise in the St. George's Hall: Papa danced in front of everyone with Marie; at ten o'clock we returned to our chambers, here only the family dined with the newlyweds. Adini and I did not take part in this, but had dinner with our teachers in my rooms and looked out at the Neva, at the illuminated embankment, ships decorated with flags, a festive crowd, and behind it the spire of the Peter and Paul Fortress, rising to the sky, still gilded by the setting sun… this day ended with such a wonderful note.”

- Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna, Queen of Wurttemberg, on the nuptials of her elder brother, the future Emperor Alexander II of Russia and Empress Maria Alexandrovna (nee Princess Marie of Hesse-Darmstadt.)

I like the Bi-Touch to the St. George Cross. I would like to request anyone on Tumblr with any editing skills to make versions with the trans flag as well (half-joking, but also yeah, it's pathetic lmao)

Imagine if Nike had actually done that. We would have been able to hear the gammon-faced pricks self-implode from here.

CORONATION PART 2: THE PROCESSION

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: "At 10:00 AM the gates of Buckingsim Palace opened signaling the monarch is ready to depart. The balusters will be lowered just before the royal guard approaches. The Procession is about to begin and will follow a direct route to the Abbey."

Shon Gableton [SNN]: "Live at Westsimster Abbey, Hallie Howell is awaiting the arrival of the Royal family."

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: "Hallie, how is it?"

Hallie Howell [SNN]: Hi, Shon and Cameron! It's glorious here! There is such a feeling of newness in the air. It's palpable.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: "We can feel it!"

Shon Gableton [SNN]: "The balusters were just lowered at the palace, and the Queen's procession is in view. Let's head back there."

- - - - - ROYAL PROCESSION - - - - -

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Royal Guards lead the King's State Coach, carrying Queen Katherine I and Rainier, Prince consort. The coach is being pulled by 4 white Stallions.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: The King's State Coach was first used at the coronation of King Albert I in 1784 and has since been used to transport every monarch to their coronation. The coach has taken the longer route from Buckingsim Palace, down The Mall, since the coronation of King Edward I in 1888.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Rounding The Lara-Leigh Memorial, the Queen and Prince consort wave to the adoring crowd.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: This is our first glimpse of Her Majesty wearing the State Diamond Diadem, made in 1820 for King Albert I. Since King Albert I, the Diadem has only been worn by Windenburg queens, whether they reigned or were consorts. It was first worn by Queen Isabella, consort to Albert I, in 1830 after the Kings death.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Just behind The Queen's coach, in The Rolls Royce State Limousine, is The Queen Mother, The Prince of Brindleton Bay, and The Princess Grace. The little prince was expected to be amongst Royal Pages but insiders say The Queen preferred Maids of Honor.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: 136 years later, history is made as Queen Katherine I travels down The Mall preparing to be crowned this nations first Queen!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Let's head to Westsimster Abbey as the royal family arrives. Hallie?

Hallie Howell [SNN]: Yes, Cameron. The Royal Family has just arrived! The crowd erupted in a loud roar upon seeing four black Rolls Royce's, bearing the royal flag, approaching carrying senior members of the royal family.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Guards stood at attention while the Queen and Prince consort's procession passed.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The tomb of the unknown soldier sits underneath Memorial Arch, and is the central location for Remembrance Day observations to honor armed forces members who have died in the line of duty.

Hallie Howell [SNN]: Back at the Abbey, the Duke and Duchess of Kent are the first to arrive, showing their roles as the most senior members of the royal family. Their Royal Highnesses also arrive in formal robes. The Duke wearing his Order of the Garter robe while the Duchess wears the Royal Edwardian Order mantle, reflecting her status as a Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Edwardian Order.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: "King George I named her a Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Edwardian Order, the highest possible rank, in 2007."

Hallie Howell [SNN]: He did, indeed!

Hallie Howell [SNN]: The Earl and Countess of St Peters followed. Prince Louis, heir to the dukedom of Kent, donned not only his Queen Katherine I Coronation medal but his Royal Edwardian Order, which were bestowed upon His Royal Highness last month. The Countess, wearing a green @sentate dress, wore the Royal Family Order of George I.

Hallie Howell [SNN]: Third to arrive is the younger sister of Queen Katherine, Princess Lara, Countess of Boykins and her husband Anthony, Earl of Boykins. The Princess is wearing a traditional coronation gown and tiara, along with the Windsor sash and the Royal Family Order of George I.

Hallie Howell [SNN]: The Duke and Duchess of Hastings arrive also in formal robes; equal to that of The Duke and Duchess of Kent. The Duke was invested as a Knight of the Garter in 2020 while the Duchess was invested as a Dame Grand Cross of the Royal Edwardian Order in 2022.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: "You can see the slight difference in their robes."

Hallie Howell [SNN]: Yes, the robes of the Edwardian Order features a red stripe along the border. In a statement just released from the palace:

"At the request of the Queen and Prince consort, Dukes and Duchesses both are wearing formal robes and mantels for the [historic] occasion."

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: So, now we know attires have been well coordinated for the senior royals. Just like the royal guardsmen in the Queen's gorgeous procession, having just passed Memorial Arch.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Yes! Her Majesty's procession is making its way down Parliament Square Street.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Crowds cheer as Queen Katherine and Prince Rainier pass.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: At the west door of the Abbey, Officers of the Order of Knighthood descend from upstairs to begin the Coronation Procession. It will be a procession composed of elements of both the Church and State, the Spiritual and Temporal life of our land.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Representatives of The Knights of the most noble Order of the Garter make their way down the naive first, in their blue robes. They are followed by representatives of the most honorable Order of the Protea, in robes of green.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The rich blue carpet spreads down the aisle of the sanctuary, which hides the black and white checkered floor of the choir of the Abbey. The beautiful contrast of colors inside the abbey is on full display.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Once again the color changes and there comes the most ancient Order of the Iwé, in scarlet robes.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: After a brief gap, the Prime Minister of Brindleton Bay along with the Prime Minister of Sulani follow. Behind them, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, the Rt. Hon. Sir Linwood Keller, Knight of the Garter.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Immediately behind the Prime Minister is the Dean of Westsimster. He leads the next procession through the screen under the orchestra and the organ and out into the brilliance of the choir. We see them now, high above the alter, as the Cross of Westsimster is born by the Rev. Hilliard.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Following the dean are Representatives from the churches of Windenburg and Brindleton Bay, showing the processions transition from State to Church.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: The Church of Winenburg representatives include the Lord Bishops who end the first part of the coronation procession.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: After a brief pause, we see a glimpse of the Heralds in their full splendor. Four Windenburg heralds followed by one Brindleton Bay herald stand as trumpets play announcing The Queen.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: With the sound of the trumpets anthem, The Queen and Prince consort's arrival at the Abbey has been announced.

23rd February 1836 saw the first day of the Siege of the Alamo.

I think a most of us grew up watching the film and John Wayne as the eponymous "hero" Davy Crockett, but did you know there were at least four Scots born men there during the siege?

The four known Scots were Richard W Ballentine, John McGregor (piper), Isaac Robinson and David L. Wilson many of men were of Scots ancestry among the defenders.

The Alamo, according to what I have read, is the busiest visitor attraction in America and has inspired hundreds of books and more than one Hollywood film. According to local legend, Crockett endeavoured to maintain the spirits of his men on the eve of battle by playing on his fiddle. He knew, and they knew, that they all faced certain death, but often ignored is the fact that accompanying him on the bagpipes was John McGregor.

Inside the church on the Alamo site stand the flags of all the countries and states which lost men at the battle. These include the Scottish saltire, the Irish tricolour and the Welsh dragon, as well as the flag of St George.

Davy and Jock took to their respective instruments it is also note that they sung songs to keep their spirits up, one of those songs was a rendition of Rabbie Burns song Green Grow the Rushes O. Now there is one legend that that the song, sung by the dozens of soldiers in the fort of Scottish heritage, is the reason that Mexicans use the term "Gringo" Think about it, can you imagine the Spanish speaking Mexicans outside the fort listening to the besieged men singing the song "....I'll sing you two-o Green grow the rushes-o...." Well it's one version, and why not! This might be ridiculed by some, but the epic film I spoke about, with the late great John Wayne, was also ridiculed for its inaccuracies almost 60 years ago, so why not indeed.

One fact we know though is that there is a stone in the Texas city of San Antonio remembering all those years ago the four Scottish natives who died at the fort.
