Horus from Egyptian mythology having been invited to his uncle Seth's palace in Ombos to discuss their little... disagreement.

Said disagreement of course being Seth killing Horus' father and stealing the throne.

And those among us who've managed to read the uncensored version of their struggle also know what happens next, wink-wink, nudge-nudge.

This was actually mostly made so that I could try the whole sunset lighting thing.

Your picture is awesome! Congrats.
I am fascinated by ancient egypt.

I have one question though, what exactly is the story? I searched the internet, but found no "uncensored" version.

Thanks!

Very loverly indeed. And "Say no more, say no more" on the Egyptian story ^~ I love ancient Egypt, especially the mythology and I think you did a wonderful job on this picture (especially the sunset... it looks like the background of a desert). I adore his eye make-up especially *Just wants to hug him and kiss him and warn him about the... oh, nm*

:-) Tina Andersen replies: "Wink-wink, nudge-nudge, y'know wha' I mean, say no more! Ancient Egyptian mythology is my secret crush. And it is a desert; Seth appearantly likes it that way, and who am I to argue with god of storms? And thanks!"

Sunset is loverly, the lower body is really well colored and shaped, but... thats a girly head on him yes it is! Yellow eyes are creapy. ^-^

:-) Tina Andersen replies: "But-but he's supposed to be the prettiest of the male gods! And a hawk god! And-and--!Heheh, Thanks!"

Oh wow! GORGEOUS lighting effects, I love it. So pretty!! And you have to give the Egyptians some credit, that whole story is rather um...original, let us say. 10

:-) Tina Andersen replies: "Oh, it certainly is. I mean, you don't see Hamlet and Claudius, er, y'know.And thanks!"
