It makes no sense to paint the skin pink. Pink denotes European traits.

The ultimate government make work project.

So, the horde is pink, not yellow

ROFLOL.

They looked so much better without paint.

Stunning. The terra cotta army is beautiful, I can only imagine it in full color.

I don’t know, they look fiercer without the paint, LOL.

Is terracotta a combination of terramisu and ricotta? Sounds delicious.

Katy Texas, near Houston has a strange tourist attraction called Forbidden Gardens that was build by a Seattle millionaire named Poon.

Detailed models of Chinese life are exhibited here, but the feature attraction is the army of 1/3 life size terra cotta warriors that are exact replcas of those found in the Han Emperors tomb.

I say the place is strange because it doesn’t get much tourist traffic. I went out there on a Wed. morning and there were only 5 visitors. I don’t know how the place keeps running. Poon must give massive financial suport-—or maybe they were running China white inside the statues.
