Lemme tellya, when I'm drawing comics I have to design interiors on the fly. Sometimes I would get a story from any time period.
Believe it or not, the most difficult was the colonial period. You'ld have to add this or that for authenticity. Remember the wood grain, etc. Some fans would get picky and write in and say shit like:
" You can't have that frame on that painting! Those frames weren't invented until 1870 and only appeared in a small Dutch village run by the Duke of such-n-such and yadda yadda yadda. "
Then you'ld go to the convention to sign autographs and one of these annoying shits would show up and a fight would start.
