If I get feedback I can improve them and finish them quicker, I am not really into type but I will try :)

And here are 2 versions of the story as Jake liked the true one the most and Maria the fake on, which one do u like the most? Let's pick.

The Fake one - Professor Johnsson killed by 800 year old poison or Ancient poison killed Professor.

The old illustration

and with effect

When Professor Albert Johnsson was find dead by his desk in London the Doctors did a horrible discovery. The ancient hunting arrows from Burma that Johnsson had been researching was after hundreds of years still poisonous and had attacked Johnssons nerve system through a deep cut on his right hand.

The True one - 1300-year-old poison or The Karen people's hunting poison ?

Hmm..i don't know what color to do it in and if u guys want the texture or not.

or maybe blue?

I have no idea how the Karen people of Burma that used this poisonous arrows looked/dressed so I gave myself the liberty of making them as weird cannibals until I can find out, so don't focus on the characters but the idea. I am googling like a mad woman but there is not many pictures of the Karen people from way back. But u learn something new everyday, The Karen people have been in a war for their freedom in Burma for over 60 years and many have been tortured to death by the Burma Army so..damn, now I don't even want to draw Karen people cos I feel bad...)

And the story: 

The poison that the Karen people of Burma used on their hunting arrows attacks the central nerve system and cause paralysis and convulsions when introduced to the blood stream and best of all; the poison is effective up to 1300 years! The arrows can be viewed at V&A by appointment.
