An Apollo design I did lol
The first thing I've read that had Apollo in was the Iliad, so I know most people think about him as the sun; but personally I've always thought about him as the God of the plague. I tried to show that here
He only has one eye, he uses his sun mark to see the future. Now I have a new idea for my Cassandra design where she has a sun scar on top of her eye after rejecting Apollo
#greek mythology#tagamemnon#my art#apollo#apollo greek god#apollo greek mythology#sketch#the iliad#iliad#Tbh. I mostly had the idea because I saw another post saying that they couldn't differentiate between Achilles and Apollo#“So I was like. ”Well. you don't have to make them look the same!“#I also have a design for Hecate. But dunno if I'll ever draw her lmao#btw. His skin is grayish because I wanted to make him look sick#And btw. Love the Idea of Hades 2 where his bow is a Lyre. So his Lyre here transforms into a bow lol#also his quiver is empty because I thought that it would be cool if his arrows were made out of light and manifested when he went to grab it#I feel like A teen talking about an OC in devianart lmao

Art of Patroclus wearing Achilles’s armour that I did while writing an essay for my Greek and Roman Lit class last week
#doctorsiren#the iliad#patroclus#achilles#greek mythology#greek mythology art#digital art#my art#procreate#I showed it to my teacher and he was like :O!!!#and then he showed it to the class yesterday#and also I told him about Epic and apparently he’s already listened to it and thinks it’s super cool#and he told the class that I said more art was to come. especially for the odyssey HELP HAHAH#this is the SAME professor who knows I’m into Ford Pines LMAOOO#I did the art for fun but I think I’m getting extra credit for it hehe#this teacher also asked us if we knew what skibidi meant…he’s such a confused dad it’s so funny#very fun class#except I have my first test for it tomorrow so…let’s see if I still like it after that /silly#I was writing my essay about Achilles’s prayer to Zeus to keep Patroclus safe#and in the middle of it I was like ‘no…I need to draw something for this NOW’ and I did

A brief summary of how each character is doing at the end of the trojan war
Menelaus - alive!!! (somehow)
Helen - alive! was gonna get killed but she's too hot for that
Achilles - dead
Patroclus - dead
Paris - dead, shot in the dick (ha)
Hector - dead, body absolutely desecrated (you were a dick for that Achilles)
Agamemnon - alive then dead (you were a queen for that Clytemnestra)
Odysseus - blublublublub (jk he gets Penelope and Telemachus back but not before slaughtering most of the nobles of Ithica, there's kind of a whole book on it)
Ajax - dead
Penthesilea - dead
Diomedes - cucked (aphrodite's punishment for fucking up her wrist)
Aeneas - bringing the squad to Italy (there's kind of a whole book on it)
#paris why couldnt you just keep it in your pants#aphrodite why couldnt you leave helen alone#sigh#sources time!!#the iliad#the odyssey#the aeneid#sophocles ajax#quintus smyrnaeus posthomerica#aeschylus clytemnestra#aand a fuck ton of vase paintings#chat it's genuinely so hard to find a source talking about diomedes' life after the trojan war#which is sad because he's such a cool character#but aphrodite's scheming with her mum is covered in the iliad book 5 after she's wounded so this makes sense#evan says stuff#greek mythology#mythology#the trojan war#trojan war#achilles#patroclus#helen of sparta#helen of troy#menelaus#agamemnon#odysseus#diomedes#aeneas#cant believe i forgot to put penthesilea in here for so long#penthesilea

(since people are drawing her with their nationality) greek hatsune miku but instead of traditional clothing I made her a φασαία for the funsies. Her name is Χατζιάνη Μιχαέλλα she drinks fredo espresso like it's water, studies philology in Aristoteleion University in Thessaloniki, lives in a 25 square metre appartment with her lesbian vegan anarchist roommate (they pay 500 euros rent) and probably copes with the fact that her future is bleak in this stupid fucking country by smoking weed. She needs to pass 10 more subjects and submit her thesis to graduate, she is in her 7th year, and if her stupid professor Mr. Malakizopoulos doesn't finally pass her instead of failing her with 4.9's then she will be expelled from uni because of Kerameos's lovely n+3 bill <3 (This is starting to get personal actually, even if the circumstances do not reflect mine)
She is the lead singer in a band with some uni friends, they make mostly political songs
#sketchterna#i am not tagging it further#I was intending to be funny but there is nothing fun about being greek in this economy#sorry hatsune miku- you have to suffer like every young adult in greece <3#at least you get a cool outfit and gay friends

there's a lot to say about the modern depictions of medusa and all, but one of my biggest pet peeves is that it also portrays perseus as some sort of macho glory seeking ass who kills women for clout. like, he was protecting his mom. his mom was being forced into an abusive marriage and he took on a seemingly impossible task to save her.
#m#i saw someone on twitter refer to him as an example of toxic masculinity#and i was like WHAT#of all the figures in greek mythology?????#like im not gonna say you cant use a cool monster lady like medusa as a symbol of female empowerment#she's cool as hell you can reimagine stuff idc#this is just a minor thing

just finished reading the secret history and WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?????? 'But you're not very happy where you are either'
just shoot me at this point, I fell victim to the morbid longing for the picturesque at all costs and now I'm in love with the book and hate the characters and I want more bc although I hated bunny at the beginning he didn't deserve to die, but I kept trying to justify their actions and like that's the whole deal, they're not justifiable.
#donna tartt mother i need more book#i don't condone their actions AT ALL but now i kinda wanna perform a bacchanalia#bc fuck getting high with sheet tunics and chanting in ancient greek sounds cool as fuck#no murder tho#bc im built different i wouldnt let that happen#the secret history spoilers#the secret history#richard papen#henry winter#camilla macaulay#charles macaulay#francis abernathy#bunny corcoran#tsh donna tartt#tsh
