Description
Hanuman from the Thai literature "Ramakian" which is an adaptation of the Indian Epic "Ramayana."Since I followed the Thai version, I tried to include some "Thai-ness" in his armor/garment.
Also, the weapon is his most featured weapon in Ramakian, the "Tripetch" or "Tri Diamond." Well, literally anyway.
The concept is: Badass looking meany gorilla. lol
Used pencil for scratching, 0.4 and 0.05 PIGMA for the line art (my G-pen kinda died on me...it sucks), Brushables and COPIC for the coloring, as usual.
You might notice that the backgroud is kinda half-assed. Well I pretty much had no idea what to put in, so yeah. lol
Kinda messed up with the blade though. Shouldn't have added the black part. 8/

What were you trying to achieve with the black part of the blade?

Who cares about the background having such a badass-looking gorilla?!
Man, when you have things like these in other cultures, suddenly Greco-Roman mythology doesn't feel as awesome anymore. I mean, we only have two or three important beasts and gods who only want to fornicate with each other! D:

Lol thanks! Well gotta credit the Indians' Bhram/Hindu mythology. They have 3 main gods and bunch more of important deities of sun wind, etc, and they have kids as beasts and giants and...well suffice to say, it's worth digging into. lol

The only things I know about Asian mythologies are thanks to the Shin Megami Tensei series, specially Persona, and the descriptions they give about those gods, creatures, angels and demons. Well, Japanese mythology is an exception.
If I had to choose an European mythology, that would be the Nordic one. But the myths I like the most are Greek, my favorite ones being Orpheus and Eurydice (who from my point of view are very similar to Izanagi and Izanami), and Apollo and Daphne. Anyways, Greeks > Romans.

Greeks are interesting...I never digged in much though.

Oh, lucky you, I had to study Ancient Greek art, it's all about temples and statues of naked gods, goddesses and heroes, specially men. You could say Art History was the subject in which my eye virginity was tak--*shot*
Jokes aside, I have to admit the myths and stories were kinda cool.

Speaking of which, why are Greeks fascinated with naked men

My teacher once said there was this guy in the Church who didn't want the statues the organisation posessed to show their smexy parts, so he made professionals modify them... cutting their wee-wees and putting a leaf there instead. She later said: "... so, for that reason, there's a dump full of statues' penises somewhere in Italy. OH GOD NOW DON'T GO TELLING AROUND THE SCHOOL I SAID THAT!!!".
Because they thought penis the male body was beautiful back then. Did I tell you that in the original Olimpic games those who took part in them did so being naked?
