OK follow up to my previous as--is Antilochus described at all in the Illiad? I'm desperate lol
Not much on him either. We do get to see he is a really swift and good fighter, potentially fast runner and very durable too judging that he ran all the way back to the Greek camp to inform Achilles on the death of Patroclus and all. But we do not have much on Antilochus per se. Once again you can return to the Nestor description.
However I have been drawing Antilochus for some time now hahaha
💬 24 🔁 21 ❤️ 48 · Honorable Antilochus Yes I guess I couldn't help myself and I just HAD to draw Antilochus too! Thanks to some AMAZING r
This sketch has been inspired by the vase painting that oftentimes is interpreted as "Antilochus"
In this painting he is depicted as a youth with long wavy hair (I believe we can assume he has his hair thug under the helmet or held together with the headband we see oftentimes in heroes) I have also been drawing him with Achilles:
💬 13 🔁 4 ❤️ 19 · Achilles x Antilochus (Achillochus) Fanart Soooo since I do not see many draw these two together I thought I should! 🤔 s
💬 8 🔁 9 ❤️ 11 · The death of Antilochus So my late Valentine's Day image is a sad one! I know I am perfectly normal for those! Hehehe so
I also included him at a collage with Patroclus:
💬 16 🔁 8 ❤️ 43 · The one that tried to heal him and the one that tried to protect him... · Okay a small collage again from two of the most
Another rare depiction that I plan on publishing soon is this:
where again he wears a petassos hat and you can see his wavy hair under it
