Is your favourite mythology character / fantasy art not on the list?
who is it or which of these is your favourite character design or story?
Share or Save!
I would love to see interpretations of trickster gods from various mythologies, including Hermes and Loki!
@Lauren I was sure Genozoman did a take on Loki, but couldn’t find it! Thanks for the idea :)
Very nice work. I would love to see a Loki or Coyote. Maybe a Bast, Hathor and Isis.
Chile is in south america…. not africa.
nice work though
Same artist that drew Lotus Ravenmoore, Azriel, etc. in Castle Age?
it would be great to see some norse gods! Odin, Loki and Thor
Great work!
My favorite hero figure is Sreng, the Fir Bolg champion from Celtic mythology.
Much as I can’t do any better and, accordingthe Rules of the Internet, have no right to have a negative opinion, I have to express extreme dislike for Genzoman’s work. :/ The anatomy is painfully overexagerrated, and gets worse over time (he’s frequently on the front page of dA). Don’t get me wrong one or two less deformed pieces I enjoy but ‘masterpieces of character design’? I expected someone else.
I would desperately love to see a Persephone.
I second Schemilix’s opinion. He’s a good artist but he has some real issues, re-apply your talent bro, the world’s full of CG women falling out of their clothes and men tripping over their own muscles.
who would have thought moses could be a badass
there women are incredibly objectified. but moses made me lol.
Zooooooooooooooooooooooooosh. i just fall in love with all those picture and definitely i will grab all of them
i would love more pics of the gods, goddess, and titans of greek time can more de posted plz
I would absolutely love to see any of the Greek winds–Aeolus mostly, or Zephyrus, Boreas, Eurus, or Notus–and the Japanese Kitsune. I pretty much love all myths and legends, so I can’t choose just one of them to be my favorite…
wow, wn eri seco socio, la kagaste! sorry la informalidad pero no pense ke tal artista era chileno! jakjakajka. me emocione. Grande chile!
saludos desde iquique!
Hi . . What year did you do the Zapata painting?
These are truly beautiful….I would love to see more of his work…..
I recommend more greek gods
The illustrations you’ve made so far are amazing interpretations of the characters! Very well done, and you have my kudos. I’d like to see some of the Greek titans, though. In mythology, they were seen as more powerful than the gods, so I think they should make the board as well.
Apollo please.
Like the rest of them, I to really love the pictures on here.
My favourite mythology character would have to be hands down! well i have 3 that i wold love to see, Ishtar “is the Assyrian and Babylonian goddess of fertility, love,and war” Inanna “is the Sumerian goddess of sexual love, fertility, and warfare” and Freyja”is the norse goddess associated with love, beauty, fertility, gold, seiðr, war, and death”
as for the picture or picture’s i liked the best.
first it would be Brynhildr the valkyrie ” just love that image” next is Lilith,after that would be Delphi and then Iara,the Sirens ,the Merrow, Amaterasu, Guanyin ,Shajar al-Durr and Morgiana.
Oh and one more thing.
Can i use these pictures for my screen saver ect or do i have to get permission from the artist’s ?
and who are the artist’s behind the pictures? so that if some one asks i can tell them.
Please and thanks
Also if you happen to put any more pictures up will you please let me know.
valhalla
Hey great to see biblical based characters, i wanna see more of them, maybe prohpets and no one knows, maybe Jesus, i have been trying to represent in my own style this kind of characters, but looking at your work obviously i got a long road ahead….. incredible
I am an artist as well but don’t have that nak about me where i can pull the image from my mind onto paper, and i love the Egyptian gods that are displayed but my question is Why oh Why have you left out the most Unique and Important god of them all OSIRIS you know the only god to come back form the dead, Lord of all gods, Judge to the fallen…
Need i go on! Anubis is sick Ra was Cool But Osiris otta be Wicked and Bastet ierie but Divine. Id really like to see these gods pro-trade by your artistic vision.
Nice work. But all the characters are white/asain. No black or African goddesses? Maybe it is too much to ask for. I’ll stick to X-men, at least there is Storm.
Thor or Hercules
U should draw Kratos from God Of War, the game that would be awsome :)
I want to see the Monkey King from Chinese’s mythology “Journey to the West.”
I think I think I think think that the fact that you are pink and purple and green and indigo can only make us conclude to the fact that unicorns have no sense of direction I found this when I was sitting on the dark side of the moon it was a epiphany and hit as sudden and shockingly as j.f.k’s magic bullet
I have just wasted 3 good minutes of your life Muhahaa (evil deed of the day… complete) :P
i want to see Apollo,Horus,Paris of Troy,Hermes/Mercury,Cerberus,Thoth, Artemis/Diana,Jason the golden fleece,Aphrodite/Venus,Jesus Christ with all of the prophets of other faiths.
please try to find thanks
First I have too say the art is extremely magnificent
You should do some of the Aztec myths
Maybe More Greek, Egyptian, And Norse Gods. Also More Historical Icons Would Be Cool. (William Wallace, Vlad The Impaler (Not Dracula), Etc.) I Loved The Painting Of Count Dracula BTW.
this is great. if there was more designed of more religious characters and kings that would be great love seeing the designs that are put out on this site
hi sir nice artwork its awesome wooooooooooh

UNBELIEVABLE! Your art is truly amazing! So amazing that it has inspired me to finally get my Pharaoh based tattoo this year…hopefully. Keep up the great work!
gran trabajo pero te faltaron dioses aztecas, mayas y tabien algunos indues y nordicos [bewolf, loki,thor ] . otra cosa q programa usas t queda muy bien

Amazing work its all quiet flawless isnt it. I wonder if u have any other art i would be interested to see it. Im considering some of your art for a tattoe. I would love to see some knights from yo0ur view. I like that dark menacing look you give. AMAZING

I recommend more Egypt gods

hmm,maybe not mythology but maybe mulan,maybe some more gods or random stuff.
very nice artwork
Ramesses II, great art work I rather enjoyed it, his form and background well made.But what is that thing in his hand. dnt say sword its a twisted piece of metal. an original egyption sword or simmitar would have been historically correct and with your tralent in art just as grand
more characters, expand this great work. like achilles, perseus, hector, hercules, thor, theseus, and all others of myths
with this art you should make video games of all kind or myth or legend and history
Amazing work and brilliant interpretation.. It would be great if the women could me a little more uh clothed please in the future please please? Otherwise though, truly inspirational work :) keep doing what ur doing :D only SA can have this kind of talent :P
really great character’s nice concepts =]
hope 2 see a hindu god myth digital fantasy pic
Sorry about all the haters out there, I love your art work, it is crisp and to the point. I would like to see other things that are not specific to well known people or gods but rather your own creations as well. I am also a huge fan of dragons, I would love to see what you could do in that department as well. Keep up the good work.
BRO YOU SHOULD MAKE A VIDEO GAME OUT OF THE CHARACTERS BRO ON SOME REAL DARKSIDER OR LIKE STREET FIGHTER BRO THIS GAME WOULD SELL OUT EVERYWHERE WE SHOULD TALK
WOW!! The best ever Pics I’ve seen.
I’d love to see Fenris.
there r many in hindu mythology from epics like ramayana n mahabharatha u shuld give a look at them
so so good photo and very helpful for my tattooing design .
amazing! love your style and detail to your art, very creative
i really like the greek gods right now im in art at school and im doning somthing like this
I would like to see Helios in the Greek mythology. He is a Titan God but is still part of the history
Well done including Lilith. I am continually astounded by how many people who have never heard of her. Likewise, Dracula was masterfully done.
Awesome work…………..loved it…..
hey i think it would be sooo kool if u did more egyption gods like horus or seth or even heather
I really like the Anubis Artwork! I love the Jackal God! Can you make more on the Egyptian Gods like Osiris, Isis, Ra. I also like to see Nefertiti! :D
I thurly enjoyed all of the art work on this site. Especially the Egyptian pieces, but i would LOVE 2 c u creat a few African masterpieces!!! Sincerely: a new fan!
Awesome work, truly…
can you do HEPHAESTUS next please.
Really elaborated, great imagination, non – standard vision;
Loved Ra, Hades, Ancient Jews, others.
Loki and Co await – ?
I love love love the art!!! but can u please do Athena (greek myth) she’s my fav. goddess.!
I would like to see somyhing like shaka zulu or tutan karmun
I personally want to see a picture of Seraphiel, the angel.
Spectacular works of art, I loved ‘em all. :D
The one described as Anubis is not. The context and color indicate it’s Seth instead, God of useful chaos and of the nightly skies.
…My bad, the author sought to represent Anubis (for the record, Anubis is, traditionally, red! And furry).
Do one of Jesus Christ. Just please don’t make him look all girly and pretty. He was a carpenter. He worked with wood. Make him look all awesome and like a real B.A. kinda guy that he was.
Maybe even do one of God (Yaweh, Jehova, God of the Bible ya know.) I really liked the one you did of Zuess, and almost thought it was God but then I read the heading again and was like, “oh…” But yeah I dunno how you would do it…but cudos to you man! Your work is awesome, I love all those pictures. I like how you’ve chosen to tackle these characters and put your own artistic spin on them.
your art is AMAZING, best character designs i’ve ever seen, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.PLEASE!
How do I make these fit to my imac 27? When I set it, It becomes pixelated and too big. I have tried resizing it with preview but I cannot figure it out. Would someone please mind telling me how to fit this in HD to my desktop. THanks!!!
Gravatar!!!
Also, anybody know why my gravatar doesn’t show up next to my comment? I checked to see that it is working and it works on all ratings. ???
i would like to see more of the egyptian and greek gods and godesses
Would love to see Bast Egyptian Goddess.
HEY GENIUS WORK MAN SERIOUSLY I LOVE IT YOUR VERY GIFTED IN BOTH KNOWLEDGE AND ART KEEP UP THE VERY GOOD WORK AND HEY HOW ABOUT MELUSINA SHE WOULD LOOK ASWOME IF YOU WOULD DRAW HER PLEASE!!!!!!!! LOVE YOUR WORK TRULY GENIUS:):):)
I love the art I wonder what the greek god of death Thanantos would look like?!
More more , this is just awesome , more pic’s of gods hero’s and warriors
do some more of greek mythology like say aphrodite and the titans that would be boss
This is really good i think that you are great at this
i wish i could do this but with everything come patients O.O :D
wow! great art work!!!
The giant muscles and boobs are very off-putting on all of these. This person needs to get back to basics and pull away from the mediocrity…the same body with different hair and eyes over and over again gets boring.
Also, the goal of armor/clothing is to cover the body, not show as much skin as possible.
Your art is some of the most impressive stuff i’ve ever seen, i wonder if you would be interested in doing “The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse”?
Your art is extremely impressive im an artist myself ive enjoyed your view of all mythical beings. Ive studied mythology since i was a little girl. I would love to see a few more of every religion. For instance, Demeter, Persephone, Bast, Seth, Loki, Phin, and in general all 14 of the greek gods and goddesses.
Loxasha, the reason all of these are built so is because theyre in the style of a comic book not realism. Theyre also supposed to be gods they dont need to be covered by human clothing or protected my armors theyre immortal thats all for looks.
these soo awesome…. also it would be complete with some characters of Indian mythology too… like shiva, raama, vishnu, hanuman, ganapathi etc
[...] CSS Shadow Text Tutorial &nbs… [...]
I’m sorry but this guy is average at best. He’s very inconsistent with his anatomy. I feel he exaggerates everything to hide his many flaws to the general public… Who don’t have their eyes/mind trained to see it. 90% of the picture is nothing but other pictures copy/pasted, collage anyone? There’s a reason he’s still doing all these small time projects… Diablo2003 is a guy who does this comic style correctly.
Awesome bro, nice details and shading! How about Samson from the Bible?
I like the idea of samson or what about Leviathin
Wow … amazing! I love it … a work of high imagination, really!
If you dig tales in the east around the world, then you will find the characters more heroic …. as inspiration.
Keep working ….!
omg amazing pic , but the some of the stories are not true …. just say’n
Very nice work! :3 Love the Egyptian Gods, but, where’s Bastet? :(
could you do kronos? please!
could you possibly do Kratos! he is my favorite hero/God
i would love to see a picture of artimes if possible

No words to say, fantastic graphics…

Those pictures are awesome!!!! I also think you should do one with Loki in it. I think you should do one about the Avengers thought too.
i love michael the archangel, but then again my name is michael too. i have even used some of the pics to desifghn a front cover for a book that may be getting published.
i am only 12 years old
all of the pictures are bad ass
i would luv 2 see a painting of Aphrodite, Freya, Athena, Artemis and Hera!
:)
the pics are absolutely wonderful…..and many other words ( good ones) to describe these amazing drawings!
these are awesome, but I think you are missing a lot. Horus, Osiris, Isis, Bast, Set, the list could go on and on, and those are only egyptian gods.
VERY GOOD CHARACTERIZATIONS OF THESE MYTHS! EXCELLENT ARTISTRY N HISTORICAL CONTENT ! THIS WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT WAY TO TEACH HISTORY, CAUSE THESE IMAGES WOULD MAKE A STRONG MARK MEMORIZATION OF HISTORICAL FACTS… PEACE N THANK U FOR THIS SITE ! PASTOR ROB CURRY
Would be nice if you have ideas on hindu gods such as Shiva, Visnu and etc.
theres also thor, odin, hephaestus and apollo that are missing but great job on all the ohers
i would love to see aphrodite
I love your Artwork your style is unique as a fellow artist just getting started i love to see more of the mythology like norse and maybe more of the egyptian gods and maybe in the south american cultures there are gods as well maybe some in that area as well. Love the work and cant wait to see more. Great Job
Amazing work except some of them are way too over sexualized. :/
All are Garbage …. !!!!!
what about the other greek gods like Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hera, Apollo, Demeter, Hermes, Persephone, Hestia, Dionysos, Artemis, Athena
Hello! Can you please make a character design for Apollo? Thanks! :)
I would love to see some of the Norse goddesses, the Green Man, Pan and Isis.

Shit anatomy (I can’t emphasize that enough), overdone rendering, bad color sense, and terrible anime faces, especially on the women. Also, giant fake basketball tits everywhere…..ugh. Please take an anatomy class.
The general public loves this garbage, but those who know what to look for to differentiate good and bad art know that this guy is an overrated hack.
it would be great if you incluede prehispanic mythology, for example, Quetzalcoatl, or perhaps an Aztec Eagle Warrior.
Also it would be great if you add some mythological creatures such as the griph or a pegasus.
Thanks
I make Ares, the god of war!!!!!!
I mean, i make tattoo in my arm!!!!
i like
i would like to see the art of achillies and perseus
great pics used them on mythological projects would like to see the rest of the major gods from each mythology such as Athena from greek,Juno from roman also known as Hera in greek, and Set from Egyptian as well as Heracules, Achilles, Perseus and others. GREAT JOB.
Nice work… You can include some mythical characters from Indian Mythology as well… They will provide you a wide canvas in respect of dressing, emotions and set up…
o my god! simply superb!
CLEOPATRA! And your work is absolutely amazing! Very inspiring :)
Hey i was wondering if you could do pics on Izanami and Tukuyomi no Mikoto it would really be appreciated
Ever think of selling your artwork to Magic The Gathering?
Nice drawings you must be very talented.Do you have any on unicorns?
Hola muy buenos el arte que haces , podrías hacer uno de Tupac Amaru II ,su historia es asombrosa o del dios wiracocha , aquí en Perú hay mucha mitología y héroes también
saludos desde Perú
0.0 OMFG this pictures are EPIC the best ive ever seen
i like the picture of shrezade
Great work. I would love to see more germanic mythology like norse and german myth. It’s very magical and brutish/war-like.
