Unleashing the black flames of anger, here's Bennu Kagaho for the SSZ Fanzine Underworld, @saintseiya-zone, this time focused on the warriors of Hades. It was a fun challenge, and I feel like I did learn a thing or two in the process. And while I don't really like most of the Specters and they aren't my favourite Saint Seiya army as a whole, I was glad to be able to pick Kagaho, because he's among those I like the most. Felt a bit refreshing to do something different from my usual stuff. Kinda wished I had the time and energy for a second entry, but oh well. Better do one thing good instead of two and rushing them, with bad results, or not get one or both done in time.
Gift from my girl today <3
The Benu bird and the Ba bird.
The Benu is a bird associated with the god Ra and the moment of creation. It's usually brownish gold in colour and looks a little like a heron.
The Ba bird is the form a person’s soul takes after death. It has the body of a bird, but the head of the person who died. This depiction probably shouldn’t be taken literally, but rather descriptively, since it encompasses the idea that soul keeps all the traits and character of the deceased person, but is free to fly beyond the body.
Paintings from the tomb of the artisan, Amennakht, at the village of Deir el Medina.
forbidden candy! my Benu Euphoria fountain pen collection looks nice, but i definitely want to get the Pink Champagne edition from GoldSpot (i want like all of these pens). i have all of these with broad nibs because i love ink and want a thick line.

How’s your Hobonichi 5-Year Techo journaling going? ✒️ I look forward to updating mine every day. Just having an excuse to play with my fountain pens and stationery supplies makes it worth it. Heh. TGIF!
