Joined this trend with Achilles and Hector ✨✋ These two were actually super popular back in old “Troy”fandom. Drawing them gave me such a wave of nostalgia.

My sweet beloved Hector 🤎 and well… Achilles is also there. One thing people misunderstand about the Trojan War is that it was not ten years of nonstop epic battles every single day. Most of the time Troy stayed behind its walls while the Greeks remained camped on foreign shores, surviving through raids and waiting for an opportunity that never seemed to come. Even when battles happened, they usually were not some gigantic fantasy war scenes. Trojans would come out from the gates, there would be short brutal clashes, and then everyone would retreat back again behind the walls. It was a long war of waiting, exhaustion, heat, pride, and survival more than constant fighting. Which is exactly why relationships between enemies suddenly stop feeling impossible. Trojans were also heavily connected to Anatolian culture, where symbolic tattooing and body markings were far more believable than in later classical Greece. There is no direct proof Trojans had tattoos obviously, but historically speaking, the idea of Trojans using symbolic markings is not as unrealistic as people think. Which is why I love imagining Hector tattooing Achilles himself during the war. A symbol meant to stay hidden beneath armor and clothing while the entire world burned around them. The defender of Troy leaving his mark on the man who would one day destroy it will never stop being insane to me.

Achilles stood in the dim firelight, bare shouldered, gold hair loose around the laurel on his head. War had shaped his body, but in the stillness he looked almost too young for the fate waiting for him. Across from him sat Hector, the prince of the city Achilles had sworn to destroy. Achilles’ lyre rested beside him, forgotten in the dust. He watched Achilles with a quiet, lingering attention the kind reserved for something beautiful and already lost. Tomorrow they would meet as warriors, with armor, spears, and the weight of nations behind them.

Feeding you all with Hectilles again 😛 I think this is it the style I’m settling into. My permanent art style🔥

My Poseidon design doodle 🌊🔱 This is his current look made mainly as a reference for myself for future drawings. He has two different ear types: when he’s underwater, his ears shift into a more fish like form, while on land they appear human. I imagine him dressed very simply nothing excessive since he’s a sea god yk. (The idea was loosely inspired by Avatar style skirts, though I’m not entirely sure how I made that connection myself.) I also picture him with a tattoo on his arm. As for the golden shell, I chose it because it feels symbolic to me almost like a golden radio of the ocean, something that carries its voice. I don’t know if that makes perfect sense, but it felt right.

Here we are, my Caracalla art. 💫 He’s really dear to me in this movie. It was a bit out of my comfort zone, especially drawing the clothes, but I guess people step out of their comfort zones for the things they love. Even though he was kind of the brainrot boss, it was really sad to watch how the infection kept controlling him, slowly taking over his mind, and how he was losing himself. I know he wasn’t a good person in real history or even in the film overall, but speaking purely from my emotional, biased “this is my favorite character” perspective, I can’t help but feel sorry for him. I really wish he didn’t get that ending. I’m genuinely glad this movie came out and that we got to see Ginger ahh Caracalla.

My dear Ganymede. They speak of him as a symbol, a constellation, a prize lifted into the heavens but I see a child standing at the edge of the earth, still smelling of grass and milk and daylight, still belonging to his mother. He is innocence made visible. And worse innocence noticed. No one speaks enough about the moment before the sky opens. No one mourns the seconds when his feet still touched the ground, when his mother could still reach him, when the world was small enough to be safe. They rush past that part, eager for gods and stars, as if divinity excuses the violence of being taken. I think of his mother often. I think of her hands what they were doing when the air tore open above her son. Was she folding cloth? Grinding grain? Calling his name? Did she hear the wings? Did she run? Did she scream until the mountains learned grief? And I think of myself, standing in that place, knowing that no prayer, no scream, no love is strong enough to stop a god who wants.

I had to do this iconic scene with Hectilles. This is so painfully them it was inevitable.

I wanted to share a few recent doodles. As you can see, I’ve been focusing mainly on Astyanax and Achilles lately. In my design, Astyanax has vitiligo and sectoral heterochromia, which is why a small portion of one eye appears blue. In terms of lore, this interpretation of the Trojan War assumes that Hector is not killed. As a result, the Trojan Horse is never brought within the walls of Troy, and the Greek strategy ultimately fails. In search of an alternative means to gain advantage, the Greeks turn their attention to Hector’s son, intending to use him as leverage against his father. By this point, Achilles has already been struck in the heel by Paris. He survives the injury, as the tendon is not severed, but is left severely impaired. Consequently, Achilles is entrusted with the abduction and care of Astyanax, allowing the child to serve as a political bargaining piece. Over time, however, Achilles forms a deep and unexpected bond, slowly becoming a father to him.
