A Nintendo-themed remake of the Bernini sculpture "The Ecstasy of St. Therese". Inspiration came from watching the "Angels and Demons" movie. The sculpture is interesting in the fact that it describes God's Presence in an almost pornographic manner.
[I]"I saw in his hand a long spear of gold, and at the iron's point there seemed to be a little fire. He appeared to me to be thrusting it at times into my heart, and to pierce my very entrails; when he drew it out, he seemed to draw them out also, and to leave me all on fire with a great love of God. The pain was so great, that it made me moan; and yet so surpassing was the sweetness of this excessive pain, that I could not wish to be rid of it. The soul is satisfied now with nothing less than God. The pain is not bodily, but spiritual; though the body has its share in it. It is a caressing of love so sweet which now takes place between the soul and God, that I pray God of His goodness to make him experience it who may think that I am lying.[URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecstasy_of_Saint_Theresa#cite_note-3"]"[/URL][/I]

Great choice of art. I can get behind any statue with a story behind it that's a metaphor for orgasm.
I read "Ryu-Gi" and "Samus" and knew this would be bad. I didn't expect to have my eyes bleed from the bloom and contrast though. Nothing could prepare me for that.
I wonder what Bernini would think.
it doesnt even look like the original statue in terms of posing
Good ol´ Ryu-Gi Rape.
I thought the glitch on KF_farm was horrible bloom but I stand corrected
The bloom is justified in this case because it's supposed to be overwhelming holy light.

"An invisible man
Sleeping in your bed
Who you gonna call?"
EDIT: Actually Ghost Rape sounds like an interesting concept to me. :P I might steal this idea.
That's a pretty extensive way to describe an orgasm. Just say the word, sheesh.

What's more arousing, describing sex in detail or just saying that sex happened?
EDIT: Or in this case spiritual enlightenment. Or is it the same thing? :D
Heh, I saw Ryu-Gi and 'Ecstasy'. Knew what was gonna come next.
Well, it's original, I'll give you that. :)
