Hesiod and the Muse
Artist: Gustave Moreau (French, 1826–1898)
Date: 1891
Medium: Oil on panel
Collection: Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France
Hesiod
Hesiod was an ancient Greek poet generally thought to have been active between 750 and 650 BC, around the same time as Homer.
Several of Hesiod's works have survived in their entirety. Among these are Theogony, which tells the origins of the gods, their lineages, and the events that led to Zeus's rise to power, and Works and Days, a poem that describes the five Ages of Man, offers advice and wisdom, and includes myths such as Pandora's box.
Hesiod is generally regarded by Western authors as 'the first written poet in the Western tradition to regard himself as an individual persona with an active role to play in his subject.' Ancient authors credited Hesiod and Homer with establishing Greek religious customs. Modern scholars refer to him as a major source on Greek mythology, farming techniques, early economic thought, Archaic Greek astronomy, cosmology, and ancient time-keeping.

The Morrigan
The triptych painting “The Morrigan” captures a haunting vision of the mythical Irish goddess, often associated with fate, death, and transformation. The central figure sits with a calm yet intense gaze, her wings unfurled in a dramatic sweep of dark blues and purples that immediately draw the viewer’s attention. The composition is strikingly balanced, with the figure’s bare form and flowing hair…

Umm ummmm arcane and wofb on your timeliness? More accurate than u might thibk..
Working with dreadnought on an arcane inspired animation so I made a few concepts of some of the gang to figure out their core character features, but in less of a joy ang style and more like arcane!
I'm super happy with whiteout since I think she came to me the fastest.. I could just. See her in my big fat head. Fathom and clearsight both had some kinda ugly sketches to start out and then for darkstalker I think he is just TOO pretty. Dread made a really great concept based on mine that feels better honestly, stay tuned for more of this project :)!

What’s megatron’s reaction to bee’s sparkling?? And that breakdown’s the father..? I’m curious.
Tumblr media
It's not everyday Megatron meets a bot who's not already aware of every wrong he's ever committed. It's not everyday he meets a bot who isn't terrified of him at first, but instead looks at him with awe and wonder.
You can't just reform your entire life/ideals and not go a little soft...
Tumblr media
Though, it's important to note that Megatron still has a lot of relationships to repair. Not just with the autobots...
Tumblr media
Megatron isn't the only one trying to turn over a new leaf. However, having some recent experience in trying to become a better person, he assumes he can maybe share some advice. Perhaps it was a moment of hopefulness, that he too could be looked at so fondly as Optimus; that he could be looked upon as a guidance figure.
