These designs are thought provoking! Love it. Reminds me somewhat of Keita Amemiya.
And I should read more Prophet!

Wow, I'm diggin' this! I can see how you've been influenced by Bronze-Age artwork. There's all sorts of weird and wonderful imagery found in the Biblical canon that few artists take advantage of. What other Biblical references are in here?

I'm curious of what imagery you're speaking of. Bronze Age stuff for sure, but biblical? Are you talking about biblical references of Mesopotamia?

Well the names "Babel" and "Horolegion" are both references from Christianity- Babel refers to the Tower of Babel, and "Horolegion" is a portmanteau of "Horologion" (a special book used by Eastern Orthodox and Eastern Catholic churches as a sort of schedule for different prayers and rituals throughout the year) and "Legion" (a group of 2000 demons who possessed a man that Jesus exorcised out of him).

Ah, I think I misunderstood you. I didn't really focus on the wording and tried to think of what christian visual depictions I had missed. Or rather, I think Babel made me think of the mesopotamian pantheon.

Yeah man. Yeah. This is really creative: a lot of new stuff in one piece.
