Off With Their Heads, 7.12

The challenge: Create a fantasy character inspired by a Greek God/Goddess who physically manifests their powers.


WAY TO GO DINA! YOUR MAKEUP WAS FANTASTIC!


Our concepts: This is such a cool challenge and it was great to see all of the artists' interpretations of these mythological characters.
Since no one chose to do Artemis, I wanted to re-imagine the hunter goddess. Because she is the protector of the forest and wildlife, I wanted her to be very faun-like as well as a strong female warrior. Her crown has the lunar symbol on the front with golden antlers coming from the sides. In her hands, she holds the head of Orion, her ex-lover and fellow hunter.
Seth selected the king of Olympus, Zeus. Using his lightning powers as inspiration, he created a youthful and vibrant version of the god with electric tattoos moving across his body. When he uses his abilities, his body glows brilliantly before blasting lightning from his hands. The beast Zeus defeated shows burns on his neck from where the lightning seared his body.




As always, feedback is welcome! This was a very cool challenge, so comments and even critiques on our work are welcome. We will be back live tweeting, so look for us on Twitter @RyTy18 and @seth842.
 Give us a shout out and a RT to share with your friends!
