Some more truly baffling denizens of the margins of the 14th century Luttrell Psalter.
#these monks were on SUBSTANCES#I believe the bird with the shell hat and the owl-goat-dragon to be friend-shaped#I believe the crawling ox with the human ass to be Of The Devil#I find the legs with a head to be merely confused#manuscript#14th century

Valentine's Day kind of snuck up on me this year for a variety of reasons, but inspiration came when I saw a drawing of the finger-thumb heart gesture and was like "there, that's it, Oxventurers doing those K-pop things" or whatever.
#oxventure#corazon de ballena#dob#prudence#merilwen#egbert the careless#kat arts#fanart#ox fanart#shout-out to my back porch for being the backdrop in the top image and the zink printer I never use for being handy#Prudence was originally a LOT more tsundere (which she is but) so that had to get adjusted to be more coooool#Corazon was the first he is the anime guy in my head#and how am I drawing front-facing Egbert what has happened to me

Well, we know what Crowley was doing in ancient Athens, I guess: tempting some poet into starting a blasphemous dining club
#good omens#crowley#anthony j crowley#I can already tell what he'd say when Aziraphale rolled his eyes about it#'you should come along angel. we both know you enjoy a good ox rib'#is this when Crowley tempts Aziraphale into trying alcohol? who knows#I think i've got the timeline right here? but the BC/AD thing is slightly tricky to get one's head around#I'm gay and bad at maths and that extends to dates apparently

U mention in 1 of ur tags that Poseidon has vitiligo? Could u tell us more about that pls?
Okay so, I saw this ask and went "oh man this is a wonderful opportunity to ramble about some of my design decisions for the Olympians" then I also, simultaneously went "This is also a perfect opportunity to doodle Poseidon" so I spent like, way too much time doing a dinky little doodle to show both what Poseidon's vitiligo looks like + what I generally envision his design to be like when he's on Olympus!
Of course, in true Ginger fashion, it's very messy but I think it gets the point across well enough! The big reason Poseidon has vitiligo (or why I've interpreted his skin as being speckled) is because well, as a horse/hippocampus (which is his actual preferred form) he has a piebald/pinto coat and the only way really to translate that onto a human-presenting form is some form of pigmentation disorder like vitiligo or leukoderma.
Poseidon, like almost every other Olympian (save for Apollo who has the most human-like appearance of them all) has multiple animal/mythical creature elements incorporated into his design/interpretation, many of these I've chosen to allude to what their 'truest' forms are like, for example Zeus' big bull horns because he was born a horned god or Aphrodite's feathered hair and talons because she is directly descended from Ouranos. Because gods are always changing and evolving as the world changes and evolves, these features of theirs can change to better match their current 'truest' self, but most deities, especially the older ones, tend to settle after a period of time and don't experience much drastic change. For my purposes, Poseidon was born with horse like features which he inherited from his mother including his striking piebald coat and his horse's ears, but he later acquired sea serpent traits such as his tail, sharp teeth and water-like hair after acquiring the domain of the Ocean and being forced to adapt very rapidly to his new environment.
Due to geneology and generational inheritance being such a major theme in my work, I chose to let that stand for the descendents of the gods as well! Humans naturally aren't born with coats and such, but many of Poseidon's children do end up having some form of leucism from minor things like Ancaeus' double coloured hair or Bellerophon's 'peeled' hands and feet (they were a lighter colour than the rest of his body) to much more intense expressions of the trait like Theseus' albinism or Triton's very unique speckling. It's rare for his human children to get an extreme expression of this trait due to humans just kind of having less melanin to work with compared to nymphs, spirits or animals, but it does happen from time to time.
#pursuing daybreak posting#ginger answers asks#this was actually a ton of fun to do ngl#yes Theseus is albino in this idk what anyone says he's pretty as fuck#Theseus is albino Jason is a red-head Heracles was born with horn-bumps (his mother helped him shave them when they started growing in)#(he has to consistently shave them down until he kills the Nemean lion then he just uses the pelt as a hood to hide them lol)#There's also fun stuff within the Olympians like this#like Hermes and Apollo both having Zeus's cloud-hair trait as full fledged gods because both of their mothers are sky gods#Of course Leto is much more earthbound than the other women in her family but her entire line are sky gods + goddesses#And well of course Maia was a Pleiade so like y'know -#Both Apollo and Hermes were born with their mothers' hair and ends up with their father's after settling which I will not comment on rn#other cool stuff include animal trait inheritance like#Ares has ox traits like his eyes and size because both his parents are cow gods but Hephaestus is the one who was born with Hera's horns#Ares later acquires serpentine/draconic features like a scaled neck and noxious breath when he settles#while Hephaestus branches off entirely and acquires more elemental traits like magma shelling on his arms and knee and a fiery breath#it's fun all around <3#poseidon#theseus#greek myth art

Head down to San Francisco's Great Highway on October 12 for a free PSYCHOPOMP Pop-up performance!
Dance with Hermes, the golden messenger god of the ancient Greeks… here a hula-hooping wonder who celebrates in pure squawks. Meditate and make offerings with Ox Head/Horse Face, guardian of the gates to the Chinese underworld… Rock out with the Valkyries, winged goddesses of glory and victory… and help them get the band back together! Let the ancient oarsman Charon tow you to safety across the river Styx… or a patch of questionable pavement as the case may be.

LMK OC COMPETITION - ROUND 1
click to see full image
Ox-Head belongs to @allthenicknamesweretaken
Java belongs to @the-real-dev
Learn more about them below the cut!!
Ox-Head:
Ox-head is one of the many servants of the Underworld. He exists in a world where ox-heads and horse-faces are a species, guarding the Underworld and guiding the many many souls to their inevitable destination there. These servants don no name as there is no use for one, the only thing that matters is their job. This ox-head, however, has been doubting their leaders' motives and whether they really are worth following. No matter. It can't be more important than their job... Can it?
Java:
Spider demon OC! He's Syntax's cousin and childhood friend. He's basically the inventor of the spider gang (since Syntax is the coder!) He also has a set of spider legs, but he actually uses them as arms. Think Garmadon from Ninjago. Fun Fact: I named him after Minecraft: Java edition, as well as Java the actual coding language (to parallel with Syntax :3)

Prequel of the Monkey King (2009) 齐天大圣前传
Director: Liang Hansen Screenwriter: Liang Hansen / Li Weilong Starring: He Jiong / Zhang Yishan / Wang Hantao / Li Yang / Lu Nuo / Xie Na Genre: Drama / Comedy / Fantasy / Adventure Country/Region of Production: Mainland China Language: Mandarin Chinese Date: 2009-09-29 Also known as: Monkey King - Prequel / Prequel of the Monkey King Type: Retelling
Summary:
Sun Wukong (voiced by He Jiong) has no father or mother. He is a monkey that jumped out of the stone. With his extraordinary courage and wisdom, Sun Wukong quickly found a place for himself among the monkeys and became the Monkey King leading the monkeys in one fell swoop. However, after witnessing the death of an old monkey, Sun Wukong began to doubt his own existence and significance, and he decided to embark on a journey to find a way to make himself immortal.
Sun Wukong met Patriarch Bodhi and became his disciple. After going through many difficulties and dangers, he finally achieved enlightenment. After that, he came to the East China Sea Dragon Palace and turned the Dinghai Divine Needle into his handy weapon, the Golden Cudgel, and thus mastered powerful power. An accident caused Sun Wukong to break into the underworld by mistake, get the book of life and death from the Lord of Hell, and thus gain eternal life

i dont think he's shadow's best va but i think david humphrey definitely suits his character best (at least my version of how canon shadow should act). he has the ability to sound menacing but isn't overly aggressive; he can be gentle when needs be.
i particularly like his more monotone performance adds to it because it isnt so far as to sound unenthusiastic (as an actor) but it gives off the feeling that he's uninterested to those who don't know him, portraying the misunderstood side well. at the same time this adds to shadow being easy to view as autistic, which is obviously going to please me, an autistic person, and help me relate.
im glad he's not the exclusive VA for shadow, because i dont think he would have thrived in his more "edgy" mischaracterisations later (NOT counting shth because even if it is ridiculously edgy at times THE WHOLE! POINT! OF THAT GAME! IS THAT THE PLAYER! DECIDES! SHADOW'S! MOTIVES!). even when shadow is portrayed in a more nuanced light, eg 06, prime, it isn't quite the same way as he was in sa2 and heroes. neither have a major focus on maria or anything to do with the ark in shadow's story, and while heroes doesn't either, i think with the general tone of the game (and also with it being aimed at a younger demographic) shadow does get to express himself way differently through the level dialogue, a more informal way of communicating character, than in cutscene dialogue.
to be fair i have never played 06 so i dont know the level dialogue in that!!! but also out of the 3 iterations i just listed that one has the oldest target audience (heroes is PEGI 3, prime would probably be PEGI 7 and 06 is PEGI 12). and obviously theres no level dialogue in prime lol.
anyway hope you enjoyed my yapping about david humphrey shadow 👉👈
#sonic#shadow the hedgehog#btw most of my knowledge of humphrey as shadow is based on sonic heroes where. well. most of the time you are on his side#rather than sa2 where he's set up as a villain#anyway all of this makes sense in my head but please tell me if its word salad#im not trying to sound smart or anything but i felt kinda pretentious writing this#OH CRAP I JUST REALISED I HAVE AN ENGLISH LIT ESSAY DUE TOMORROW RAAAAAA#its 3 paragraphs and i *have* written 3 paragraphs but i was really not having it when i was writing so there are like no quotes and#the intro is actual 🤘bogus🤘. sigh.#im too tired to get my copy of kite runner tho...#but also im pretty sure this one is graded...#ughhhhhh whatever if i get 1 C at the start of sixth form i doubt im not gonna be able to get an A or A*#plus i only need a B#(technically i only need a C but my predicted grades are Bs so school might get at me if i dont get them)#also if this sounds really crazy and like im setting high expectations for myself. unfortunately ive always had high grades#but i dont feel very smart either way (probably because most of my friends are the type that dont try and do better than me).#plus i go to a super prestigious college that expects nothing but the best (its literally a feeder school for ox-bridge)#sigh. one english essay isnt going to change much

I'm sorry I really don't know what was going on in my head here
#my art#good omens 2#Aziraphale devouring an ox rib#outside of absurdity there really is no joke here since there's not much relation#I just needed to see if it was as funny in the real world as it was in my head
