Description Just like my Quetzalcoatl piece, I decided to take on another god from the Aztec pantheon, Mictlantecuhtli in a graffiti style.

Mictlantecuhtli is the Aztec god of the dead, and all people that pass on (except those who died during battle or while giving birth) go to Mictlantecuhtli's underworld of Mictlan after a 4 year wait to live amongst him.

His name translates to "lord of Mictlan" and is often depicted as a blood-splattered skeleton who wears a headdress made of owl feathers and paper banners with earrings made out of human hands.

Dude, he totally looks badass. Maybe some new Metal band will see this and dress themselves based on this.

Sure, I could probably whip up a wallpaper version of this as soon as I'm done with school for the day. Glad you liked it.
