....But....they are both gods....what is the significance in the size difference?

You are reading too much into it. Not everything is going to have a deep theological or representative meaning. I just wanted to draw Anubis and Sekhemet. My only real 'deep' though was the idea of Death and War being represented.

Again, Artistic License Not ignorance. Just because I have an opinion that differs from yours doesn't mean I don't understand the topic. I've done plenty of study of art history including egyptian stuff. Yer welcome to your opinion just as I am welcome to mine. Thanks for the comment. For me this is a 'fantasy' piece not a religious work. If you want a 'honest to life' religious piece, feel free to make one yourself that is as accurate to your beliefs as you wish. Be sure to let me know if you do so, I'd like to see how it turns out.

'Nubis isn't the God of Death. That's Osiris, and he's got a woman. :-P
This is the second Anubis/Sekhmet I've seen, and it's starting to freak me out, cause SHE's got a husband too. *cackle* Still, lovely drawing. Though I always thought the Gods and Goddesses were the same size. :-P
Beautiful work!

Yes but A: Artistic Licence. B: Egytian Gods arn't real, C: In egyptian art they often over sized the more 'important' figure in the image. D: The egptian gods often had more than one roll, depending upon the era and got shifted back and forth. Thanks for playing.

Absolutely artistic license lets you do what you want with a piece, real or not. Don't undermine Sekhmet's importance, though; She nearly destroyed humanity, and when the Egyptians realised their calendar was screwed up, they devoted the last few days to her in a festival of praising her so she wouldn't come down on them again. She was probably one of the most feared gods in Egyptian mythology.
Maybe it's stupid for a Christian like myself, but I kinda cheer for Sekhmet in and of it all, and it's slightly offensive to see her so small. But it's really no big deal, just an observation. I take liberties with Egyptian mythos, too; I have a story in which I've turned the "gods" into mages as the background setting for an entirely new (yet very old) civilisation. I still think it's very lovely work, and if I haven't favourited it before, I will. You have awesome talent.

This is glorious, I've always been a huge fan of the ancient egyptian traditions and this is just gorgeous.
I don't suppose I could have a go at colouring it could I? No worries if not, its a beautiful picture.

I'm sitting here trying to think of what he's saying to her and drawing serious blanks...
The best I can come up with is
"You're not wearing anything under that, are you?"
But then, I think that just because I'm a guy...
Cheers

Wow, the lineart is really amazing! I never get my line art so clean when I ink stuff in, what brand of tech pens do you use? It's probably just me needing alot more practice ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Exact pens used on this: Pentel color brush (brush pen) Pigma microns, 005, the 01, 03, and 08, I also used a sharpie fine/ultra fine and a faber-castell pitt artist pen B.

Wow.... physically, approximately what size is this?

Kawai! but I thought Sekhmet wouldn't be pleased... she's the goddes of war! Rawr! -_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wouldn't she? What is war but a servant of death? What happens in war? people die, so death and war go hand in hand I would think.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
good point, although it looks like war is just in death's hand *rimshot*
