The glyphs don't mean anything - I tried to come up with a good way of actually spelling words, but fonts are hard to find, and accurate translations are difficult to master. <=)

Inspired by the beautiful ancient bust sculpture of Queen Nefertiti, textures from colourlovers.com and cgtextures.com

The bluish colors really add to the fascination factor. There should definitely be more attention paid to the artistic use of cats in Egyptian themes.

I think the grayness of the palet has a lot to do with the appeal of this picture. It just fits the theme somehow.

I have a book on Egyptian grammar. It's not all that difficult, once you learn enough of the vocabulary.

Somehow I missed this when it first got put up, I have know idea why.

Very awesome work. I've always loved Ancient Egyptian stuff, always thought it was so cool. The papyrus style you've got going on here is especially nice and

Egyptian is a bit difficult to understand unless you've had a chance to firsthand experience the dialect. Kind of like Old High Gallifreyan, which is sort of a glyph thing too, but based more on mathematics than art.

Interesting choice for the title, particularly given that Egyptians didn't have access to sapphires.

Very nice! The color and textures give it a very interesting feel, but what's got me is that face, which is so nice and different from what I normally see of your head shapes, -looks pretty awesome!
