Last remaining pieces for my Slavic Deities and Bestiary series I've been working on past year and a half. Big thanks to my Patrons for making it possible! It was an honour to have the opportunity to create portrayals like these.

The exhibition is officially over but prints and postcards will remain available online. You can browse my gallery anywhere to find the rest of the project or join my Patreon to even find articles based on my research I wrote to each of the deities and demons.

RAROG’s Polymer Belt Links

Back in July we looked at polymer belt links developed for PK series machine guns made by a Ukrainian company, the Kharkiv Plant of Individual Means of Protection / RAROG. Now we have some more clips and information on their current projects. The RAROG belts are disintegrating and significantly lighter than standard PK belts.

The Raróg [Slavic mythology]

Everyone knows what a Phoenix is, but it turns out the concept of a fiery bird is found in many civilizations throughout the world. In Slavic mythology, for example, there is the Raróg, a magical flaming bird. The details vary between different regions: in Czech folklore, if you incubate an egg on a hot stove for 9 days and nights, it will hatch into a fiery Raróg.

The Czech Raróg is also sometimes depicted as a dragon or dragon-like creature. In Polish mythology, the Raróg is not a large beast but a tiny little bird that brings people happiness.

In Slavic mythology, the Raróg is a fire demon that resembles a flaming falcon. Mythology about the demon varies from culture to culture. In Czech folklore, it is said to hatch from an egg warmed on a stove for nine days and nights, while in Polish folklore, it can be kept in one's pocket and bring happiness.

A caldera on Jupiter's moon Io is named Rarog Pater.

Day 268, the Rarog can look like a hawk, a falcon or a fiery dwarf. The creature turns himself into a whirlwind to wreck chaos across the land. It is commonly thought to bring misfortune and illness so the people of old Russia, Pommeranians, and Bulgariand threw themselves face fine before a whirlwind to ward off the ill luck. Some would even throw knives into the whirlwind in hopes of killing the beast. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ImaginaryRibbon • • • #whirlwind #fire #firebird #fiery #hawk #firehawk #rarog #slavic #spirit #creature #myth #folklore #legand #slavicfolklore #slaviclegend #mythology #slavicmythology #watercolour #watercolourart #watercolourpainting #watercolourdrawing #conceptart #fantasy #fantasyart #fantasypainting #illustration #draweveryday #autumnillustration https://www.instagram.com/p/BorcgHOle-Q/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17qzlaeau3erh
