forgetting your headphones at home is the modern equivalent of leaving your sword behind in medieval times
[2/2] I’d let the comic speak for itself, but I should clarify: the giant snake is Apep, the glowing deity is Atum -- both primordial beings of Ancient Egypt w/ opposing views regarding their world. [ #Art #Artwork #OCs #OriginalCharacters #Comics // #DEITIESProject #Atum #Apep #EgyptianMythology ]

Atum continues with his admonishing remarks to Apep, while also unfurling his golden griffin wings and increasing the golden light from his magic ward.
Atum: "[...] Especially coming from an abhorrent serpent... who could not care less about the well-being of my kin."
"I will not 'humor' you with answer for the sake of your ego trip. My thoughts would be of no use to you..."
"And you cannot threaten me here. Now, begone."
Apep hisses in protest at Atum's retort, before simmering down.

[1/2] Another DEITIES throwback I'm fond of -- more practice pages, this time a mock prologue to the main plot that I completed in 2017. Also slightly closer to the style I'd consider for the story! [ #Art #Artwork #OCs #OriginalCharacters #Comics // #DEITIESProject #Atum #Apep #EgyptianMythology ]

Atum continues not to respond to Apep, for the moment...
Apep: "...Well?"
"Have you no answer for the fate of your brethren? Or is it perhaps... That you no longer care for them?"
At this, Atum finally lifts his head from his work. Notably, his eyes are obscured under the shadow of his griffin-like headdress.
Atum: "I was only considering... how those were far more than just 'a few' questions."
