The Birth of Venus

I’ve been making posts where I dive into certain artworks depicting Lady Aphrodite (or Venus)! I’ve covered the Birth of Venus (Both the ones by Botticelli and Cabanel), Venus Victrix, Venus Anadyomene, and Venus Verticordia. Today’s painting is the Birth of Venus by Fragonard.

Fragonard

Jean-Honoré Fragonard, a French painter and printmaker, was born April 5, 1732 in Grasse, France and died August 22, 1806 in Paris at the age of 74. He painted in the Rococo style, with many of his paintings showing off his beliefs in hedonism. Fragonard painted more than 550 paintings in his lifetime, with notable works including The Swing, A Young Girl Reading, and The Bolt. Not much is known about many of his paintings.

Description of the Painting

Venus sits on a wave, tended to by many women. All appear to be nude, and some appear to have fish tails. Some hold flowers or shells, while most hold nothing.

Finally I have finished my Aphrodite Design for Epic the Musical, took me long enough🫡🦋🥲🏛️

I imagine her all dressed in purple and pink colors, having wings in her hair and body tattoos……yeah

Have you ever drew Aphrodite? 🤨

I didn't before but I have now! ;)

I present you my interpretation of the goddess of love and beauty :

I imagine that she constantly changes her appearance by mimicking the traits the people around her believe to be beautiful. She doesn't do it on purpose it's her nature to change much like the foam of the waves from which she was first formed.

The Truth of the Matter

Came up with an idea for a modern day olympians. Since I like imagining aphrodite’s appearance changing depending on the person, I just drew her the way I wanted. Most of the gods’ forms change over time to suit their time period and needs, but hephaestus can’t do this.

Basically this is a webcomic about the gods in the modern world, and also Aphrodite actually loves Hephaestus and the whole “Ares and Aphrodite are sleeping together” thing is just a rumor.

In honour of the release of God Games I have decided to draw the 6 challengers in Athena's way <3 <3. I love them so dearly you have no idea. And man I really have not been making enough EPIC content. I ought to get back to those animatics I've been planning and at least finish a small section of them. That'd be nice. asjdgsajd

playing around with my Aphrodite design

This is truly stiff competition for the worst case of willful false equivalence we've ever seen.

So, for those not aware: Ongoing embarrassment to gamers and the gaming industry, Mark Kern (former lead on FireFall), has been desperately trying to get Gamergate 2 going on X/Twitter... well after others have given up. If you need to get caught up on Mark, I recommend this video by documentary maker and experienced game developer, Dead Domain:

One of the latest fiascos in this mix has been the comparison of responses to character designs from Hades 2 (Aphrodite, left) and Stellar Blade (protagonist Eve, right). The post isn't by Mark, but is part of the general harassment campaign he's trying to lead.

If you're somehow not familiar with Aphrodite, she's the Ancient Greek goddess of love, lust and hot girl shit. It is absolutely perfect characterization for her to show up to a battle (or anything else) nude but for her hair teasingly covering the intimate parts of her body. But the buried lede here is, you don't fight her in Hades and nothing about Hades 2 indicates she'll fight there either, she just likes the aesthetic and has no reason not to indulge.

Stellar Blade will release on 26 April 2024, so we can't really give an informed discussion of her character. But what we do know is the studio head is the illustrator from Blade & Soul, Eve is described as being a member of "the 7th Airborne Squad" engaged in an "operation to reclaim the planet from the Naytiba", and the promotion material promises "an enthralling narrative filled with mature themes, mystery and revelation. Embrace the relentless pace, with no time to pause between moments where critical, story-changing decisions are made."

It's to be compared to games like Nier: Automata, Devil May Cry 5, Jedi: Fallen Order and Sekiro. And the screenshots look like this:

And yeah, unlike Bayonetta she's not supposed to be an unstoppable force of nature (and fashion) who is immune to self-doubt, she's supposed to be the scrappy underdog last survivor of her team.

Weird they gave her a costume that conveys... the opposite of literally everything they're supposed to be trying to tell you about her.

Started as a random crossover between Proseka and Greek mythology/PJO. Then it went out of control. And then halfway I got lazy.

My personal favourite is Shiho's design. And Nene's, but does it really count as my design if half of it is literally from the game?
