Cool stuff all around! Here are the eight pieces for my portfolio. A bit rushed, but ah well. Presenting: Zeus,  Vishnu,  Bacchus,  Buddha,  Hades,  Quetzacoatal,  Apollo,  and Jesus.  Thank you, and good night. |

'Cuz, he's one angry dude. I'm kinda bad at 'normal' skin tones, so I decided to do all of the characters in weird colors- for funsies. I actually don't have that much experience with color pieces, so this was kind of an experiment to practice palettes and stuff like that. I have to make four more, and I'd like to do some female religious figures. I was thinking of doing a piece with a valkyrie, but that's all I've got so far. Any particular ones I should target?

'tis a story of rape and incest.. he turned into an injured bird and managed to seduce his sister Hera, and then raped her. Then married her.. Whether he was a bird at the time of the rape, who knows, already put too much thought into it.
Zeus was a bastard, always transforming to trick people.

He's done it as a cow, a swan, and a "Shower of Golden Motes," so I'm pretty sure a bird isn't too far a stretch. Seriously, Imp, do some reading on the Ancient Greek Gods. INTERESTING folk.  |

"Shower of Golden Motes," Wait, Zeus invented the "golden shower"? Not that I would be that surprised, but yeah. Also, I'm kinda surprised you guys got the Zeus picture in the first place- most people I showed it to had never heard of that particular story. I suppose ignorance is bliss, after all... |
