Ok, further intro:
Hi! Call me Ajax and I am agnostic/pagan. Currently trying to dive into Helpol with the gods Zeus and Hermes being who I worship currently.
I don’t do commissions (yet), but I like to draw when I have the time. Don’t have a particular niche, but I like to draw monsters & animals.

So- did end up drawing modern clothes for my oc. I’m thinking about making him my persona since I highly associate the design with myself. Dunno, but I’m definitely proud of this piece since I really like how it turned out

Anyway, have fun with Troy Saga eye colors + canonical coloration

Haven’t posted in a hot minute. Anyway, been in a bit of a drawing funk so I will be making eye art for the named EPIC characters. That totals up to about 22, not including: variants, monsters, & the winions. May increase to 26 if I add in my other 4 ocs, but all I give is Phoenix for now

I promise- I know how to keep up with my list of things I want to draw. I just keep getting distracted and wanting to create new things…

I may or may not reuse some of the stuff I’m typing for my rendition of the EPIC universe for my own canon & lore. Like how Satyrs are surprisingly more horse-like while Panes are closer to the stereotypical satyr. I love looking things up for research for design ideas (context in the replies)

So, reusing the name Thymbraeus for an EPIC/Greek Myth oc. Thinking of making him an artificial nymph that was created by the 3 brothers (Hades/Poseidon/Zeus). I only know for nymphs in the EPIC fandom, they are an element + one creature. I got 6 (3 each) to work with now...

OK SO I RENAMED THIS BASTARD.
His name is Pyrometios. It just flows a lot better than Pythanesis. I should redraw him… maybe update his character as well. Definitely keeping the phoenix motifs though

So- may have made a god oc for EPIC (+ other Greek myth based media)… Doing a similar thing I have seen some other artists do for Hermes since it’s simpler on my brain. Plus the character often hides his gaze when interacting with the mortal realm. Flat colors for now so he looks a little dead lol

2 1/2 (front and back) pages in five star ring notebook filled with basic info about Greek gods (Animals, Colors, Plants & Symbols) just to only use some of that info for EPIC designs. Not to mention that I wanna draw my OCs as well. And the designs for the mortal characters in EPIC

“I don’t want to be a monster anymore”
“You’re not a monster”
“The miasma- I have so much blood on my hands though…”
“My love, you are NOT a monster. You let yourself believe that… Why?”
“I am my mother’s anger, and my brother is her jealousy. Why can’t I be like Athena?”

Just had an idea for an AU. Dual/Twin Mentors:
So, we all know that Ody is mentored by Athena. But what if he asked Ares for guidance too at some points?
It’s just that Ares is very disapproving of Ody’s actions until Love in Paradise. Ares may be violent warfare, but he’s well known for protecting+

Update on my Duolingo situation: Deleted the app and now using Mango and Language Transfer.. I actually feel like I’m learning something with Mango. My notebook for Ancient Greek is gonna look like a fucking coloring book lol. They also have modern and Koine Greek on Mango. Ancient is free though

Pissed off Duolingo is going to be chalked full of AI now with the new CEO. Fucking sucks since I had a 76 day streak and it keeps me motivated to do lessons with how it works.
Gonna be using language transfer to continue learning Greek. If I need to write anything down to learn, I can always look+

Have fun with my Satyr dnd character. His name is Thymbraeus, or Thymos for short.
Now that he’s done- onto my Zagreus/Dionysus pieces. Hopefully everything is going to go smoothly with this now finished

Cool! The intro is up on the tumblr. This’ll be the main hub for longer posts and lore drops for my canon in the EPIC universe. Admittedly I am much more of a dick to weed out anyone who may be harmful if I’m ever blunt. I try not to be mean, but I will if need be

Oh! As a heads up, gonna be putting all my EPIC stuff onto a new Tumblr account where everyone is free to interact. This does mean that this account and my NSFW account will be updated in turn. Have yet to do an intro there but here it is

“I am you, and you are me. No longer are we each other or apart from one another. A beautiful paradox separated by the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Son of Hades becoming the son of Zeus. I’m sorry they hurt you. I’ll take better care of us now… young Zagreus.”

Used Hero Forge for a general idea of the character design for my upcoming DnD character. I will be actually drawing him later. Just wanted a reference idea for him. I wonder if anyone can guess the Greek myth/constellation he’s roughly based on.
Clue: His current (and temporary) name is Jason

If you're not an artist and you don't support ai then I feel like your biggest concern shouldn't be how people make their fanart

So- I may have started playing Baldur’s Gate 3 recently and I am kinda wanting to draw him up. And yes- I did name him after a Greek hero… it may or may not be named after Achilles… I promise, I am totally normal about it. (Yes, I am a simp for the vampire. I like biting /platonic)

Update: Two more skeins are supposed to come in Sunday. I do not believe I can leave the scarf on the alter at this point lol. I may end up using one of the skeins to add length to another skein of yarn that I’m sending to my mom when I finish the project as a Hera/Zeus scarf
Welp- with my birthday past now I have more yarn to finish the scarf I was making for Lord Zeus. Also thinking about making candles so may put the candle making kit my mom got me to good use too! I’ve been wanting to make an online shop for this sort of thing for a while. Gonna celebrate Olympia too

Reusing a pose for the chibi. Anyway- was gonna do a 3/4 view, but it wasn’t working the way I wanted. May edit it on my art app. As of right now, this is a very bare bones look for my Odysseus. I promise- lion traits will show up in the hair. Trying to make him look wolf like at the moment. Enjoy!

Getting the urge to draw up my version of Epic!Odysseus. Thinking of having wolf/lion motifs. Unsure, but working on a separate project right now. May draw him with my version of Epic!Poseidon
