When you play forum games with multiple accounts, you tend to find lots and lots of stuff that could be passed off as period pieces. Those are too late for an assumed mediaeval period, but they're still good fun.

Those are awesome Monsterzuma! Ian McKellen is especially good.

Nikolai Kochergin, the storming of the Winter Palace by revolutionaries in 1917.

No image manipulation. No sir. None at all.

I call photoshop.

 

[Monsterzuma]

You think people would do that, just go on the internet and shop things?

No, he's right. In the original image, Trotsky was clearly visible piloting the mecha, but in this version he's been edited out at Stalin's command.

No image manipulation. No sir. None at all.

Except ofcourse the whole "storming of the Winter Palace" imagery is propaganda. Didn't happen. Personnel present actually welcomed what "revolutionaries" approached. No need for any storming there.

That was the February Revolution. In the October Revolution, it was bombarded from the Peter and Paul Palace and the battleship Aurora, and then stormed by Red Guards.

Its debated whether the Aurora was in ship-mode or whether it had transformed into bipedal mode, hence the controversy surrounding the above image.

 

[Agent327]

I wasn't talking about the Februari Revolution. There's an actual documentary with interviews of surviving Palace personnel telling it was "enacted" later. In reality however, nothing heroic happened. No struggle, no combat. Some furniture got broken, if I recall correctly, that was about it.

 

[Traitorfish]

There's a lot of room between "nothing happened" and "storming of the Bastille 2.0".
