Description
1- this was -originally- intended as fanart ( stargate), though I am not sure if he is now. But to be safe, he is in fanart. you can go to my scraps and check out the desktop with his rough and the reference I used and I will let you be the judge. I am bad with the categorizing2- I know nothing of egyptian mythology etc and ifI had intended to make an entirely 'accurate' representation I would have used better refs and done just that.
3-I am not refining him any further

created in photoshop with my mouse.

Somehow, my exclamation of "Oh shizzy!" when I saw this doesn't quite explain the depth of its greatness.

I wathc the series every once in a while when I'm over at a friend's house, but I've seen the movie. One of my other friends have the whole series... I should steal it from him to watch. But back to art, I think it's a nice piece, far more accurate than I could do. =]

Awesome work, reminds me a little of the 'gods' in Stargate. Also, is it just me or does he seem kinda sad?

oh..it was opriginally intended as stargate fanart..I thought I...*checks* ok, so I said it was fanart but not for stargate haha *changes*
*shrugs* he's ot a helmet on so I guess whatever emotion he is portraying is what the viewer gives him

Everything is so smooth and... well, I don't know how to say it, but dense. Horus has got a nice abdomen on him, too.
Have you ever watched the Stargate movie?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
YES! I just watched it last week! I ordered it off ebay 'cuz I couldn't find it anywhere...I was very shocked at the resemblence between michael shanks and spader...I heard they looked similar but DAMN...
thank you!~ The abdomen was the hardest part, hahah!

All right, I'll be honest here! I don't watch that much television anymore, so if Atlantis is one of the newer shows, then I don't know anything about it. Maybe. However... I do know about Sliders and Farscape!

You know what I say allt he time anyway.
1) Mask part is one of my favorite parts because of the curve of it
2) The pointed finger looks like it needs a nail
3) Knuckles and forearm is definatly a favorite part, most definatly.
4) You definatly pulled off the overhead lighting thing
5) I like the way it looks as if the light's shining almost directly on his head
6) His stomach was the hardest thing to do.
Yay. >:3
