I love the feel of this. Do the Egyptian symbols actually say anything?

Oh, they're all pretty random... I suppose they could be secret code for something without me knowing!

I just love all of these, and you did a remarkable representation of Hathor. I just finished some research for school on Egypt, so I would know

I think this series of three is SPECTACULAR! Wonderful filling of the page with the spots and hyrogliphics, very eyecatching. Its an old myth with a very new and contemporary twist, love it.

Wow, all of these Egyptian Dietes have been good. You should try doing Set (Seth) some time!

Thank you, and once upon a time I did try drawing Set. That was back when I was writing him into a short comic. Well, who knows, maybe I'll draw him again someday!

Wow, really great job on all the Egyptian Gods.
I love the style, with the splattered paint over the picture and the lines in the background look good too, especially on Horus.

Thank you, I have just too much much fun when it comes to the paint splatting it seems.

What can I say? These are all very lovely, amazing even. I think I like this one most of all though, partially because of the fact that she's a rarely depicted Egyptian deity. The regular focus being mostly on Anubis, Horus, Bastet, and Sekhmet in anthro artwork. Also, I find her ever calm disposition to be rather amusing too, while the others seem to enjoy getting heated over the debate.
Artistically, I find this to be a small stroke of artistic genius... Just the way you manage to put things into there simplest design, yet remain accurate to reality... It's just a perfect mesh of the Egyptian style and some of your more realistic tendencies... For example, her nose here... it's just a line, nothing but a line, but works so well. I can't help but just copy reality or other artist's works--I'm just not good enough to manipulate images into original ideas and styles. I think graphic design work is right up your ally, and the "semi-realistic" look you do is just perfect. What's funny is that you did these three years ago too...

Out of the three, this is the only one to wear rings on each hand - both Horus and Anubis were not seen wearing hand ornaments...

Heh, great observation. It's good when someone notices the smaller details.

Heh, actually no, this just came straight out of my head. Having said that, I can see why you had mentioned Klimt. I guess they do share that sort of layered, built up effect. Hmmmm, interesting. Thanks!

THEY ARE ALL BEAUTIFUL DX I CANT DECIDE WHICH ONE I LIKE MOST XD THOUGH I AGREE, HATHOR ISNT OFTEN SEEN IN ART AND ITS A NICE CHANGE TO SEE HER INSTEAD OF ISIS OR BAST =3

Aww, thank you. I think that's one thing that I like most about ancient Egyptian art, the way female figures are always shown in beautiful profile.

They are always drawn so gloriously! I can only imagine what life was like back then! They always look great! I just saw the King Tut exhibit in Chicago and... wow!
